Only when Joe Buck or Chris Collinsworth is on the call…

Hey now! Chris was an outstanding receiver. Joe works for Fox.

Can’t stand him in the booth. His voice bugs the hell out of me and ruins as many big moments as Joe Buck. Outstanding recover, annoying broadcaster.

'Color' is there to ramble semi-pertinent gibberish and fill airtime between the play-by-play. Dead air is/was(?) a no-no, even legally, when a license was required. People grow tired of same-old. Look how vicious they turned on Howard Cosell. Called him racist, after he alone resurrected Ali.

Cosell was before my time, friend. My old man didn’t like, idk why though.

Cosell was everywhere. Ubiquity breeds familiarity.

We used to send men with sword and shield to decimate rival cities. Built great hollow shrines for throngs and masses to ogle the gruesome deaths and dismemberment of those caught in our nets. Thunderous applause. This is better.

Sports are the opiate of the masses. With all going on in the world AND our Country there were 40k+ singing take me out to the ballgame WHILE down the street 20k more are watching tennis.
