I agree about Mike Patrick - he was great. I think the current Monday night football booth is t3h suxxorzz.
Back when TNT got half the Sunday night games (and ESPN got the 2nd half), I thought they had a really good announe team, graphics, and coverage. This was probably 15 years ago or so, but I still remember it.
While we're on the topic of NFL television, I must say that the FOX pregame show really lost a lot when James Brown went back to CBS. Joe Buck is waaaaay better than the guy who sits on the far left yesterday, but I don't like it when they do the pregame show outside at a stadium.
On the flipside, Mushmouth (Shannon Sharpe) makes it impossible to watch the CBS pregame show. I like the ESPN pregame show, but there is a lot of garbage in 2 hours. I usually watch ESPN from 11AM EST until Noon EST and then switch to FOX, although the FOX show just isn't as fun.
I'm rambling now, but I actually liked the FOX show better when James Brown was the host, Chris Collinsworth was there instead of Jimmy Johnson, and Jimmy Kimmel provided comic relief instead of Frank Caliendo. Howie Long doesn't add much, but he intimidates the other guys which is fun sometimes.
I think I watch too much NFL coverage. :P

IMHO Shannon Sharpe is too concerned with how he looks in his slick ass suite and tie...dude has so little to contribute to the conversation.

What are you doing an hour before the game... buying mandals?

He's on a snacks and beer run. Duh.
I don't catch much of the coverage either. Tivo makes everything better. Football without commercials = :notworthy:
