Re: McNabb in the booth or on ESPN?

I'd rather have people who speak normally and aren't outlandish and obnoxious like Irvin and Sanders.

But it doesn't really matter. Even NFLN isn't in it for quality analysis anymore. If you want quality analysis anymore, you have to depend on yourself.

That's pretty much fine, considering I know what I see. But it's impossible to watch every single game of every team.

I know Deion can go overboard sometimes but I think he does a decent job of analyzing. Irvin on the other hand I just can't stand. Deion is at least funny (to me).

But yeah, they really need to bring Chavous back in and hire McNabb. I really hope he doesn't go to ESPN.

not to beat a dead horse Matrix.. but you have heard "mic'd up".. this is how the players talk.. it's not unusual... the game is such that that is what football is all about "**** talking"...
is only natural to have the players bring this energy from the field to the show... CBS/FOX... (NBC not so much)...

Matrix I like the serious stuff to.. I really don't think Irvin know ****.. but on the reverse side some of the Guys that have never played the game don't really add anything either (other than their opinion).. IMO

I just think it's horrible presentation. Annoying to the listener/viewer.

Re: McNabb in the booth or on ESPN?

I used to really, really enjoy watching NFL Gameday Final with Rich Eisen, Mariucci, and Deion. All 3 of those guys played off each other so well, imo. It was easily my favorite end-of-the-night NFL wrap-up show.

Then they took out Eisen and replaced him with Fran Charles' stale ***. And added Irvin's manic insanity. Now I watch *shudders* Berman, instead.
