Gruden is funny how bad of an actor he is. lol
I still like him as a coach however.
 
I've learned to live with the time lag. Turn the tv down and listen to Brad, Babe, and Christy (especially Christy).

bro forgive me for my ignorance but what does the hand and buck on Rangers shirt stand for.
 
Yeah, I was saying earlier in the week that ESPN has made such a mess of MNF that it actually diminishes my enthusiasm for the game a little bit.

Another little pet peeve besides all the rest is how they cut away to shots of fans after almost every play. Do we really need that? Nobody else does that.

The claw=a long distance high five
the antler=a good speed play
Josh has antlers above his locker from first deer and they got the speed thing from that.

They have been doing it all year. this team is loaded with team unity. i have never seen a team so focused and together.

You'd think in the technological age we live in, there would be a way to mute just the commentators.

IMO the only things that dont royally suck at ESPN is John Miller doing baseball and the college basketball coverage.

Otherwise, its awful.

Somebody is going to make a lot of money if they ever get that figured out.
 
I hate BSPN as a whole and their general bias. I hate their football analysts on the network pre and post games, and NFL Live (Except for Trey Wingo, who is a Cowboys fan)...

...but I love the Monday Night Crew. Gruden is the next Madden. He makes the game fun to listen to and I get some laughs. Jaws may have been an Iggle but he's pretty unbiased now and his analysis and breakdowns are excellent. Tirico isn't the best nor is he that exciting, rather boring, but he at least keeps up, calls the action correctly, and leaves his opinions out, like the straight play by play man should do.

I'd take them over Buck/Aikman any day and twice on Sundays (and Monday night) :)

Miller is ok but its entirely ruined because he works with Joe Morgan, who just barely ekes out Tim McCarver for "World's Dumbest Human Being With A Headset On."

? He said he has learned to live with the time drag.

The time lag drives me crazy. Maybe if it was a late time lag i could, but i cant stand to hear a TD being called before the ball is thown.

Listening to Gruden and Jaws still beats listening to Aikman and Buck - mostly Buck.

I dislike Buck as well, but to me, it still feels like a big game when Fox is doing the game... Probably because Buck and Troy are their #1 team.

When ESPN does Monday Night, the whole presentation, from the pregame to the actual game call, just feels Mickey Mouse. (Sorry Mickey.)
 
I prefer the ESPN commentary to anything we get here during the games.
 
Who does a game has never bothered me. I have been more bothered by the actual play on the field this year.

i completely agree Hos, all those homer comments drive me crazy too.
