To each his own but, i'm big time Romo.
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.
BingoRomo and Nantz and its not even remotely close. I am not as down on Aikman as a lot of people are in here, but Buck gets on my nerves like no other person on earth. I'd rather watch a game announced by Joy Behar and Kathy Griffen than watch him.
Can you imagine Jerry as a color-commentator?Who would be in favor if Jerry stepped down as GM. However, you have to listen to him announce every game.
He comes across arrogant to me, but maybe Im wrong.I don’t get the hate for Joe Buck. Maybe I’m just too old to understand....

Different flavors for the masses. We are not all the same. I agree 100%. Dont care about Bucks accolades. He is as irritating as a stumped toe.Is this a real question? Lol! Romo and Nantz of course.
What makes him overrated?I think Romo was as underrated as a QB as he is overrated as a commentator.
Don Meredith, Frank Gifford and Howard Cosell
pat summeral and john madden.
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.Not for me Cosell was insufferable, Gifford boring even for a play by play guy...

Is this even a choice?Jim Nantz and Romo or Troy and Buck?

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.
