Re: Tom Hammond

I'm going to laugh my *** off when Joe Buck starts doing Madden Games and the "bring back Hammond" threads starts popping up.

Re: Tom Hammond

Honestly, I had never even heard of Tom Hammond before he was in Madden. I wonder what the reasoning was for signing him? Collinsworth I can understand but when I think about football and commentators there are a million other guys I would think of first. I don't think I have even heard Hammond do a football game..Does he partner up with Collinworth or something? Who is this guy?

I would have loved to see someone like Aikman or Jawarski..would have been a much more recognizable and household voice and name. You would have thought EA would have wanted that instead of the Hammond guy.

Re: Tom Hammond

Aikman and Jaws, would replace Collinsworth as analysts. What I might've done would just be to hire actors A La 2k5. I thought that was ok commentary (except for war and peace lines LMAO)

He does Notre Dame games on NBC...since I think the early 90s...

He partners up with Collinsworth for one game...the 1st wild card game on NBC..NBA on NBC for years...hit up his wiki page...good info there...
