The Death of Monday Night Football

I used to love watching Monday Night Football. As a kid growing up in the early 80s it was such a thrill to stay awake until kickoff before falling asleep to the comforting sound of Howard Cosell’s nasal voice. As I got older and managed to make it through an entire game, I tuned in every week...

The women sideline reporters is what has ruined it for me.I can't stand the
incessant"I talked to so and so and so and so told me......"

Errrrrrrr.......Marc,you lost me with this though "Now, I like Jeff Gordon, Christian Slater, Jay-Z, just as much as the next guy,"

I couldn't agree more with the women sideline reports! They drive me nuts. They are just eye candy, and get interviews with players easier because they have tits. I'd love to sit down to a nice sports trivia game with them. When did trend even get started, and how did it get so out of control?

For me with the actual broadcast though... i don't have a problem with it really. But then again, i'm not your typical die-hard football fan like others. I can't just sit down and watch a game between the Browns and Jets. And if i have no interest in the two teams who are playing that night, i probably won't watch. If my fantasy week isn't pending on the game, i will probably just check in and watch in spurts.

Also, its much more annoying for me to have to listen to Theisman and Orange Man for the whole game, than to listen to celebs for a few mins. I simply can not stand those two tools... why ESPN thinks they are a good idea is beyond me.

"Now, I like Jeff Gordon, Christian Slater, Jay-Z, and Jimmy Kimmel just as much as the next guy, but for God’s sake I don’t want to listen to these people trying to sell me something when I’m trying to watch the game"

where in this sentence is he even talking to some "other" person??? he's just saying he likes these people but he'd rather watch the game and not see them hawk there goods....
