Create your own MNF booth!

[Kodos]

Pick your 2 or 3 man booth and tell us why!

[Gallifrey]

Al Michaels - Smooth. The voice of MNF.
Dan Fouts - Keen eye and tells it like it is.

That's it. I really like Phil Simms too.

You had me until you brought Simms into it. I personally think he is terrible.

[Kodos]

I'll go with Al Michaels. (MNF has always had him in my memory)
Tom Jackson
Chris Berman
Chris Mortenson on the sideline

Sorry, I love the Primetime crew.

[Greyroofoo]

I'd pick three mimes

[Ajaxab]

Maybe not the best for football, but I would love to hear the linguistic collisions that would ensue when Howard Cosell and Dennis Miller would be in the same booth.

[Schmidty]

Zombie Bob Ross (Announcer)- Silky smooth and would open new doors for undead in the broadcasting field.

Jesus (Color Analyst) - Very impartial and omniscient. He raises great points and Bob Ross.

Drunk Joe Namath (Color Analyst) - The lovable ex-jock is knowledgable and has a great relationship with the crew, especially the sideline reporters.

[Kodos]

I wanna kiss you, E.D.

[Senator]

Jim McKay, Pat Summeral, and Vin Scully.

Let's take it old school.

[Galaril]

Eddie George, Dan Fouts and Dan Dierdorf

[Desnudo]

Billy Bob Thornton and Christopher Walken

[Draft Dodger]

Al Michaels - Smooth. The voice of MNF.
Dan Fouts - Keen eye and tells it like it is.

That's it. I really like Phil Simms too.

Cougar is right. Phil Simms? yuck.

for a minute there, I thought we were going to have something special.

but yeah, Michaels and Fouts is all you need.

[SackAttack]

Tony Siragusa.

What? It's the most efficient way to fill the booth.

[SnowMan]

Larry the cable guy and Jeff Foxworthy.

[cthomer5000]

I really could deal with Michaels/Fouts and then give me Suzy Kolber and Chris Mortenson roaming the sidelines.

[sterlingice]

Yeah, I'll take Michaels/Fouts, too.

SI

[Galaril]

Jenna Jameson, Fouts and Bobcat Goldwaith

[biological warrior]

Edward R. Murrow: The descriptive description of events.

Tom Brokaw: The Voice.

Tucker Carlson: The Bowtie and, I feel he is a good interview guy.

Edit: and of course Michael Savage as the color commentator.http://www.operationsports.com/fofc/images/smilies/biggrin.gif

[JPhillips]

Michaels, Riggins and Tom Jackson.

I'm telling you, if you've never heard Riggo you're missing out. He's the most entertaining ex-athlete bar none.

[Craptacular]

Pee Wee Herman
Richard Simmons
Marsha Warfield
a locked door

[moriarty]

I'll go with Michaels, Riggins, and Troy Aikman.

[sterlingice]

Al Franken, Bill O'Reilly, Pat Buchanan, and Craptacular's idea of a locked door?

SI

[rkmsuf]

play by play: the boom goes the dynamite kid.

color man: I second the drunk joe namath vote. Yeahhhh!

sideline: eric dickerson

[ISiddiqui]

I think we should try the English Premier League example and just have Michaels in the booth doing play-by-play and color.

[BuffaloHuskey]

Michaels - Fluid speaker and good play by play guy. Doesn't make outlandish overblown statements like others out there (i.e. John Madden, Joe "Broken" Theisman, Chris Collinsworth, and Moose Johnson". Insightful in most of his commentary.

Steve Tasker - Former player who actually knows what he is talking about. Does not force feed general football information to the viewers. He comes off as an intelligent individual and is fluid in his delivery.

[BuffaloHuskey]

dola - I think Paul Maguire and Joe Namath sound announce from a dunk tank booth filled with beer.

[Chas in Cinti]

Riggins couldn't say some of the things he says on the radio on TV (similar to Bob Trumpy). Though I agree he is very good.

I like Maguire and Barnett on SNF. Michaels seems to be simply too self-righteous at this point. Sadly, he has has Jim Nantz-itis. That is the affliction of being too pleased with oneself.

I guess I'd go with Harry Kallas on PbP and Fouts or Sterling Sharpe on color.

Regards,
Chas

[Samdari]

Jessica Simpson and Suzy Kolber having lesbian sex in a PiP type window.

Show the regular cameras live, with sound coming from the actual game (there are speakers in the QB's helmets, why not microphones). Between plays show the coaches (i.e. full field) camera with audio from Jessica and Suzy.

Gets rid of the annoying banter, blather and madden, and is a hell of a lot more entertaining than mimes.

[WebEwbank]

Ernest Hemingway on play-by-play
William Shakespeare on color
Heidi Fleiss on the sideline

[Senator]

Serious question:

Do we get more out of the play by play than we do when we go to the actual games and do not hear it? Is the experience of play by play make the game that much better.

I remember when I was really little, they tried a game on TV without play by play. It just showed the game. I remember we had all the family and cousins over and my older cousin kept trying to do Howard Cosell, but that game stuck in my mind over the years.

Half the time I don't really hear the announers. If it's a good game and one I'm paying attention too they kind of fade into the backround for me.

[M GO BLUE!!!]

In the booth: George W. Bush & Charles Manson

Sideline: Leon Spinks

Nobody would have a clue what the hell any of them were talking about, but dammit it would be entertaining!
