Jim Nantz Says He And Tony Romo Could Call 9 Chiefs Games This Season

[Fountain City Blues]

Awesome. That is 8 less games I have to worry about them calling Bengals games.

Why all the hate for Romo?

I think he’s taken a step back in his quality as an analyst. That’s just my opinion though. He used to provide great commentary when it came to formation, play calling, and matchups. Now it seems like he’s trying to take on more of a John Madden kind of persona and he doesn’t pull it off well. He’s working too hard to come off like “an everyman” kind of fan and it seems he’s lost that edge that made him qualify when he first came around.

No hate from me. I just find them a little annoying at times and if I had to watch that many games with them announcing, I am sure it would graduate from annoyance.

Wonder if that is CBS trying to make him change

Strong theory. Network executives often try and coach the personalities.

Chiefs radio it is. Not even a fan of Mitch but Romo is easily my least favorite color commentator

Why all the hate for Romo?

Why all the hate for Prescott?
For Aikman?
Heck, Staubach had his critics too. The NFC Capital division all hated him too.

But what I'm fairly sure of, the network rolls with what sells.ABC showed that much back in the early 70's.

Cowboys...can't live with um. Can't live without um.

Broadcast hate I am talking about

Okay...Tony & Dandy Don.

Personally, I think Darrell Johnston is far and away the best old Cowboy broadcaster. Hard to criticize the Moose.

I liked that he knew what was going to happen when he first started...his game IQ is really great.

but the man can't let a moment of silence pass without feeling like we need to hear his voice.

Well taking during the game is pretty much his job.

 

[Manster7588]

The best thing about Romo and Aikman being commentators is it irritates the fuck out of Eagles and Deadskins fans.
