Exclusive: NFL on Fox Broadcast Teams revealed for the 2014 season - Awful Announcing


Here’s the full roster of NFL on Fox broadcast teams for 2014…
1) Joe Buck, Troy Aikman and Erin Andrews​
2) Kevin Burkhardt, John Lynch and Pam Oliver​
3) Chris Myers, Ronde Barber and Jennifer Hale​
4) Thom Brennaman, David Diehl and Laura Okmin​
5) Kenny Albert, Daryl “Moose” Johnston and Tony Siragusa​
6) Dick Stockton, Donovan McNabb/Brady Quinn/Kirk Morrison and Kristina Pink​

Out of those listed,give me brennaman mKenny Albert.​
Those two are my favorite announcers.​
Along with Moose.​

Joe Buck..........Please no.​

I wonder what the over/under will be on how many times he he says Rodgers should win the MVP?.........I say 5.​

Announcers should be bias and not to try to influence.​

I think people need to remember that commentators probably seem boring or overly obvious when they drone on and on, but it's for a purpose. We hear them talking about how a WR is going to need to get better separation or some other little thing like that and we go "well , duh. Tell me something I don't know". But the comments aren't really meant for the die hard football fan like us. We already know the intricacies of the game and we know why, how, what the teams are doing from play to play. Buck and Aikman and the rest of them aren't explaining the game to us, they are explaining it to new fans, casual fans, young fans, foreign fans, non-fans, and anyone else who may have switched to that channel for a moment.


The fact that you find some of the announcers lame probably just means you have a better than average understanding of football than most. The game (even the obvious stuff) still needs to be explained to less committed fans (like my wife for example).



100% They also have to make up stuff to talk about if the game is going slow or not many good plays happening.

Oh Gawd, how awesome would it be to have B&B broadcast a game?

Aikman is ok. I've never noticed him sounding too homerish on Boys games. Like many here I don't care for Buck, either. I wish he'd stick with baseball. Collinsworth is the guy most likely to provide the best insights, but even he tends to talk too much. None of them really bother me too much. It mostly just goes in one ear and out the other unless someone says something really insightful or really stupid.

I don't see Gus Johnson on there. I loved his calls when he used to do the NCAA Tourney and his Isaiah Thomas "Cold Blooded" call in the Pac 10 tournament still gives me goosebumps.

He's definitely my favorite since moving to Fox.

I got a big TV in the living room and it is several seconds behind the radio or I would just listen to Raible. What is effed up is my son is downstairs (cause his TV is bigger) and before the play starts on my TV, he is shouting about something. His TV doesn't have the delay.

I have not the intelligence nor the patience to figure it out. My life is shit! Maybe if I turn the radio on first?

I actually like Aikman more than most... Can't stand many of them as it is.

This.

I like Aikman and Moose Johnston both.

Joe Buck? Not so much.

It could be worse.

Didn't Tony Kornholler announce games in the past?

IMO, he was THE absolute worst in the booth ever. Collinsworth is second, Mayock third for me. :mad2:

Sounds like you have the same set up as me. My main TV room big screen is about 4 seconds behind the other TV's in the house. My best guess is that its because I have the PVR cable box on that TV and the rest are just on regular non-recording cable boxes.

I hate joe Buck from listening to him announce the Red Sox - Yankees games.
He is an obvious Yankee fan and can't hide it to be objective.....

For the record, Kornheiser would be the first to tell you he was the worst ever.

I give him a bit of a pass for that.

They just won't go away.....

Seriously @Southieinnc ?

You dug this up from 3 years ago? WTF. Making a big fucking spectacle of yourself.

I don't know whether you notice or not but you only have your fuckin forum ID because I made that possible. I'm what counts on this forum, not your fuckin' Country Clubs, or your fuckin' TV shows, and what the fuck are you doing on TV anyhow? You know I get calls every day from back home? They think you went bat shit?
