Well maybe I am biased a little because I wanted to get the job...LOL (I am a play by play guy myself), but I think it may get better, I am sure it is quite an adjustment for John, after doing colour for so many years.
Alex has been a really nice addition though, giving us some really good insights from inside the huddle.
I do agree on the delay, It wasn't too bad over here in Canada, if I put it on channel 4, but if I put on the game on the NFL Ticket channel, it was really brutal, like you say, close to 5 secs
