Great point, never understood the money thrown at these announcers. If its my team or SNF, MNF, or TNF im watching unless its a blowout, announcers have no impact on my decision. Just as what musician does the lead in has no impact on if im watching or not. When I read NBC pays Carrie Underwood a million a game for SNF, I was thinking, you don't have better uses for 17 million? One more point on Al Michaels, I was in high school when he called the miracle on ice, next year Im retiring, again time to give a younger person a shot.
