dascottbills28 Posted September 11, 2014 Share Posted September 11, 2014 The Bills/Dolphins game, a battle of 1-0 teams, gets the lowest rated announcing team for CBS of Tom McCarthy and Adam Archuleta. Who on earth is Tom McCarthy and why doesnt this game at least warrant an announcing team that somebody has heard of? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
devldog131 Posted September 11, 2014 Share Posted September 11, 2014 Because they likely had the crews assigned well before the season and nobody really cared about a Bills-fish match up at that point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â Maybe the guys who make all of those "authentic" jerseys... I mean, they make jerseys, they've gotta know something about the NFL, right?

Max997 Posted September 11, 2014 Share Posted September 11, 2014 Tom McCarthy is the play by play announcer for the Phillies and apparently also works for Westwood One  Tom McCarthy is entering his third season as a play-by-play announcer for coverage of select Sunday afternoon NFL games after previously calling college basketball and football on Westwood One in 2008 and 2009.  Tom currently does basketball and football play-by-play for CBS Sports Network, and will join CBS Sports for select NFL broadcasts this season. He is also the television play-by-play voice for the Philadelphia Phillies. He spent the 2006-2007 seasons as a radio broadcaster with the New York Mets before joining the Phillies. McCarthy spent six seasons with the Trenton Thunder, the former double-A affiliate of the Boston Red Sox, doing play-by-play on radio and television for CN8. He has also worked as the radio voice of the Saint Joseph’s University men’s basketball, Rutgers University football and Princeton University football and men’s basketball.

Hopefully he isnt as bad as Rhonde Barber Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CardinalScotts Posted September 11, 2014 Share Posted September 11, 2014 (edited) im all for the new guy - SO tired of Buck or most Fox games they slant the broadcast towards the NFC and their interest which the other networks do not do, but it is Fox. Gumble or Nantz who sucks, every time I hear Solomon Wilcots I cringe. His inability to to move on talking about today's game not 7 years ago Ben Rothlisberger is not Elite as an example . Ian Eagle I really like and that might be about it, Collinsworth is okay but he's teamed with Al Michaels who is more interested in telling you who he knows than the game. Ya lets try the new guy Edited September 11, 2014 by CardinalScotts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3rdand12 Posted September 11, 2014 Share Posted September 11, 2014 Scrapping the bottom of the barrel here, stuttering Chinese guys would probably be better. Listen to the game . It better some times. Tough if its not synched and watching too. But its an option . I am going to stay open minded . Go bills announcers !
