Just the court sounds (neither of these gals are grunters / screamers) and it was amazing. Just like you’re there in the crowd, but with the best angles and replays. Wish they could have that option / to turn off the commentators for football. I don’t need all the glad-handing and to know that Ryan Fitzpatrick went to Harvard etc. I recall thrm doing that experiment on nbc with no announcers.

Brady needs to retire and join them already, maybe he can be entertaining. Colinsworth 🤮. Idk who is worse, him or his son. Burkhart and Olsen are pretty anonymous as announcers, but they are actually quite good. Certainly better than Buck and Aikman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sammy Watkins' Rib Posted September 2, 2022 Share Posted September 2, 2022 Buck and Aikman on MNF. That will take some getting used to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beast Posted September 2, 2022 Share Posted September 2, 2022 (edited) It is so rare that I actually hear a comment from any of these guys when I'm watching the game. I'm too focused on what I'm actually seeing to pay attention. In fact, about the only time I do tune in it's when a sideline reporter is on because that usually has to do with an injury update...so I guess I really don't care who is in the booth. It has no effect on my watching experience. Edited September 2, 2022 by Beast Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While I'm not a huge fan of Buck/Aikman, I will opine that they are a MASSIVE upgrade over the crap that's been jammed into our ears over the past couple decades. Especially since ESPN took the reigns. Pure garbage. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

machine gun kelly Posted September 2, 2022 Share Posted September 2, 2022 (edited) If you don’t like any of these guys, just mute the tv. I don’t need announcers, but I don’t care that much either way. Sometimes these guys are annoying, but then again I loved Summeral and Madden. I also Cosell as a little boy. My dad on the other hand hates animated announcers and just wants it straight. He’s old school. He oughta be as he just turned 92. Im curious how Amazon will look. I’ve had a Prime membership for sometime, but never watched a live sports feed. Edited September 2, 2022 by machine gun kelly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LabattBlue Posted September 2, 2022 Author Share Posted September 2, 2022 Fox not having any big names makes you wonder…why would they bother? Who does or doesn’t watch a game based on the broadcast crew? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
