Be glad I'm not head of ESPN or Fox Sports. If I was I would give Brad Sham a bunch of cash to be on my #1 NFL broadcast team. I'm very surprised someone hasn't done that yet. Brad is greatness!

brad sham has always been a great voice for calling dallas games.

the thing i love most about him is his impartial view.

he gives credit where credit is due....even though you know he hates to see the boys lose.

They won't because of east coast bias. If Brad Sham was a giant or patriots announcer he would be on espn or the NFL network, just like Bob Papa, who happens to be the giant announcer, is on the NFL network. Espn is full of giant,yankee, red sox, patriot, eagle and phillies fans. Anybody west of pittsburgh and south of maryland does not stand a chance, with espn.

Sham has worked plenty of other stuff. It's not like they don't know about him.

And yes, I think a lot of him as the Cowboys' announcer.

Well, NFL Network is headquartered in Culver City, California... So I'll give them a pass for using Bob Papa. Other than that, I agree with you. It is east coast bias and cowboys hate. I for one, however, am happy that we still have him.

For all we know, he has gotten offers and has turned them down. I do know he does a Fox game every year during our bye week and the weekend after Thanksgiving. And for some reason I remember him filling in somewhere else for a Thursday game.

One person I can't stand is Merrill Reese, the Iggles announcer. His voice grates my nerves, yet ESPN and everyone else insists on using his voiceover every time they show the Iggles. They use him over Brad when they show Iggles and Boys, and it annoys the heck out of me.

Sham is a very good anouncer, although i think he does a little too much butt kissing when interviewing players.

Bob Pappa is pretty good too and i also like the Eagles announcer, he has a differnet voice. And that one guy that annouces for Arizona is pretty funny. Also the Colts announcer i like.

I think worst i have heard is from Washington. They have 3 in the booth full of old men that can’t keep up with the game.
