This is a MAJOR upgrade. 32-year NFL vet. He currently does NFC games for FOX (he and Charles Davis called the Phins-Saints last year). I LOVE this guy. Husband/wife team on air.
This guy is a pro. And hopefully that will rub off on the rest of the booth. I love those guys. But Bob doesn't seem like he does much prep work for these games. Nat might butcher some names, but he seems prepared.
Great news, love Dick Stockton. He is a MAJOR upgrade. Now if they would just replace Griese with someone who doesn't seem so bored by it all. Love Griese, hate his commentary.
Sick and Muck take it downtown on Dick...they shoot...and OHHHHHH....just off the rim. /devolving of thread
Bob used to be much better, but the last 3 or 4 years I have even noticed his call of college games has gone downhill. It may be one reason that Herbstreit got the Saturday night gig instead of Bob.
I've been listening to Stockton since back when he did CBS NBA Playoffs games back in the day. They usually taped the games back then and showed them around 10:30 PM....you didn't have many live NBA games during the week or cable (late 70's). I think he and Brent Mussburger probably are the best at broadcasting football games....although Brent mainly does college games.
He is also an awesome NBA announcer. Now all we need is to have him replace Jimmy Cefalo as Dolphins announcer.
