This is hilarious if true. Those two are beyond obnoxious.

It's not, though they are (even if a bit of their stupidity is overblown like the Sean Taylor stuff).

A couple outlets have reported they've gotten this tip a number of times anonymously over the last week or two, someone finally ran it and it was immedieatly disputed and retracted.

Nearly half of Washingtonians don’t like Commanders name, Post poll finds

According to a citywide Washington Post poll, close to half of D.C. residents have a negative view of the team’s new name, with 32 percent disliking it and 17 percent saying they “hate” it.

Four out of 10 residents are positive about the new name, but their positive feelings toward the change are soft, with only 5 percent claiming to “love” the Commanders and 36 percent saying they “like” the new name. Eleven percent say they have no opinion of the name.

Of the three names the team has had since 1933, a 43 percent plurality of D.C. residents say they prefer Washington Football Team, compared with 26 percent who favor the Commanders and 22 percent who say they prefer the Redskins. Five percent say they favor another name, and another 5 percent have no opinion.

On local radio everyone’s pissed. I’m done with this franchise.

Re: NFL Off Topic

There's a new movie in development which will be about Tom Brady, featuring Tom Brady as Tom Brady, produced by Tom Brady.

Sounds like a Road Trip movie where 4 women travel together to go to see Tom Brady play at SB LI.

Sure, he's probably only in the movie for a few minutes at most, but still, I guess it counts as a Tom Brady movie.

Re: NFL Off Topic

Aikman reportedly leaving FOX for ESPN's MNF broadcast booth. Previously was linked to joining Al Michaels at Amazon for TNF.

Report: Troy Aikman poised to leave Fox not for Amazon but ESPN

https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2022/02/23/report-troy-aikman-poised-to-leave-fox-not-for-amazon-but-espn/

The landscape of NFL broadcasting is in for a major shakeup.

A very different broadcasting environment unfolding over the next couple seasons, as TNF goes exclusive to Amazon and Sunday Ticket expected to move from DirecTV to a streaming-first product once that deal closes with whomever wins it (Apple, Amazon, Disney).

MNF desperately needed that.

I don’t get throwing that kind of money at a broadcaster. If I want to watch Monday night football I’m watching regardless of the commentary team

Re: NFL Off Topic

So he gonna be calling games by himself?

Surely, they’re not going to keep Levy to do PBP with him. Going from Joe Buck to Levy? Yikes

I pretty much watch all sports on mute, but for some people the broadcast team is more important to them than the game.

I've never said "oh I have to catch that game, so-and-so is doing PBP or color."

But I have turned off a game in large part due to poor commentary.

Lol so what do you listen to? The radio broadcast?

Podcasts, albums I haven’t listened to yet, YouTube videos, etc for me.

I absolutely have watched games I wasn't invested in if ESPN was doing Coaches' Film Room. That is some of the best content they put out, so of course they bury it a mile deep and never use it on their premium NFL product.

Re: NFL Off Topic

I'm Mr. Mute and Aikman doesn't move the needle for me. Maybe (maybe!) if they pair him with Michaels I might give a try for 5 minutes.

I would say, in the old (old old) days, if I was on the fence about an NBA matchup and Marv Albert was doing the game I would tune in, he was that good to me.
