Summerall's play-by-play delivery was exemplary -- whether it was a 2nd down run in the 1st quarter in September or a winning score in a playoff game -- his voice just expressed what happened; he knew he did not have to embellish what viewers saw on their screens. He let the broadcast of what is happening on the field dictate the atmosphere of the game.

All facts!!

It doesn't matter to me. Both teams are good. I don't get bent out of shape over game announcers. If they're not interesting, I just pay attention to the game.

Romo and Aikman have different styles, but I like them both. Though I do get annoyed with Aikman bending over backwards trying to not be partial to the Cowboys, nobody, or at least myself, expects him not to be a bit biased towards Dallas.

But that's not enough for me to not pick Aikman and Buck, the thing is Buck is awful, that tilts my vote to Romo and Nantz...

Not for me Cosell was insufferable, Gifford boring even for a play by play guy...
I really meant this as a joke after someone else said Madden and Summerall. Cosell was only tolerable for me when Meredith was with him because Meredith would make fun of him.

Neither, I do not need a color commentator to tell me what I just saw. There is far too much chatter during the games and because the fans were absent, they felt they had to destroy the sound of the game.

Madden was the best because he watched the game as a coach and looked for the tendencies and he watched part of the game, the trenches, that the majority of viewers don't really follow. He added "color" to the broadcast with his personality.

There's not a two man booth that I like and absolutely detest the 3 man ESPN clown show. Listening to that sad clown, Riddick, fight the smiley clown, Griese, for air time and talk rapid fire to hog the time is unlistenable. Levy isn't bad but they can lose Riddick and improve the show.

When Romo is beside Nantz, he has the tendency to drift with his voice and half of what he says gets buried in the ambient crowd noise. He forgets he's broadcasting. And he has a terrible broadcast voice.

I can go another lifetime without hearing "that's hall of famer, Troy Aikman" and Aikman's lead in to half his comments with "that's right, Joe".

A lot of posters here are too young to remember the greats that did it all by themselves like Ray Scott, Jack Drees and Frank Glieber. They knew when to shut up and let you become a part of the game and were like friends guiding you along through the game. They were masters because they'd all done radio and they brought that element to the broadcast.

I believe CBS will handle the Super Bowl broadcasting this year.

I can deal with any pair of Romo/Nantz, Aikman/Buck.. or Collinsworth/Michael.
All are excellent pairs that are inspiring and can make even the most boring of games interesting.

I just wonder how this Drew Brees incoming to NBC broadcast is gonna work out.
Just don't dare give me Jason Witten EVER again in the broadcast booth again :rolleyes:

I couldn't wait to get Joe Namath, Dennis Miller (ABC Monday Night ).. .. and Phil Simms (CBS) outta the broadcast booth ..!!
By far the worst of all time color analysts. LOL :laugh:
