took over unless Dallas is playing. And then I am usually in a bar so its easy to avoid the Hank Williams Jr intro.

Is the intro always that over the top? It looks like they allowed some junior-high kids to conceive and design it.

If I didn't hate espn so much I'd almost feel embarrassed for them for that contrived mess.

Uh Monday Night Football has always...ALWAYS been over the top. From the pre intro skits (I always think of the T.O./Desperate Housewives skit), the primetime "feel" of football and well the HW JR intro is just part of the show...

All the intro looks now is spiced up for 2009.

Lol, good one. I only been watching the NFL since '74.

Not much of an espn fan would be much more correct.

If you don't watch MNF you're not much of a NFL fan.

Weak. I see where he's coming from. I can't stand Hank Williams, Jr. ESPN has it going in the right direction with the serious tone at the beginning, but then they roll right into the Hank nonsense.

I've NEVER liked Hank on MNF.

Gruden trying to position himself for an offer was entertaining.

Gruden was about the only thing that made that coverage watchable.

I think he said it was weak for you to call out another fan for something stupid like not watching an annoying ESPN broadcast when the Cowboys aren't playing.

I'm listening to Matt Millen evaluate the talent on Defense, basically downplaying saying it's 3 guys, which is good and bad...but then I remembered how good he was at evaluating talent professionally as a GM of the worst team in the history of the NFL - the same team that beat the Washington Commanders yesterday (I will never get tired of that.)

Yeah he's all over the Cowboys. 'They were hoping to win'. LOL. Look we were down out halftime with no points and came out on fire offensively and defensively. It's not like we were up 10-0 and just costed to a win.

i can't believe what i'm hearing from these goons on ESPN. i've never heard so much negativity from people. do they watch the games? Steve Young just said are we trying to win 20-17 every week? Yo Steve we just scored 31 against the great Giants and had 4 TO's. Our D played really well tonight IMO. They had one drive when it counted where they moved the ball and thats it. Matt Millen is a good also. I can't believe these guys actually are football people.

You mean some joker that says they're a NFL fan but don't watch MNF?

He didn't even know Felix's name. He was like 'there best player tonight was what's his name the running back'. What a joke. Go back and orchestrate another winless season your credibility means nothing at this point.
