Just wondering which overall telecast experience you guys prefer since I don't feel like doing the actual work that I need to get done right now. I think I'm over Fox. They basically plugged a half-a**ed version of JB in to orchestrate the pre-game show and if you don't get Troy and Buck calling ur game...you are more than likely to end up with some pretty bad announcers and god forbid even Tony Siragusa as ur sideline guy.

CBS has some pretty good music, it's fun to watch Shannon Sharpe try to speak english, and they roll pretty deep with good announcing teams, and Bonnie Bernstein was pretty hot even if she doesn't work sidelines anymore.

wth is up with people not liking goose?
I love him on the sidelines rather than some chick who doesn't know jack that isn't in her notes.

I also love a lineman's prospectives on the game.

I don't get the robot.

do they still do the thing where they have the robots play football? I remember they used to do that, but of course I haven't watched a fox pre-game show in who knows how long

CBS has the better graphics and overall presentation. But Fox has far better on air personalities.

Currently, the best mixture of graphics, on air personalities, and overall presentation belongs to NBC.

However, the best NFL broadcast of all time belonged to CBS during the early and mid 90s.

I always watch Fox. I really like Jimmy, Howie and Terry. The grumpy old coaches bit gives me a chuckle too. If I wanted music I'd turn on Sirius.

I agree with all of that.

I really love the cbs video stuff, they have better editors and more creative effects artists than fox.

The nbc games this year have been horrendous however.

My only argument against Fox is the sometimes unrefined and crude nature of the presentation. Fox too often relies on boorish humor and addresses us as if we're common plebs, a contingent of Al Bundys.

Fox with a better picture then CBS? From what I have seen, CBS HD seems to look quite a bit better then Fox.
