You know if they are doing a simaulcast, they should use the stations' brodcast team

Simms and Nantz

and Madden and Michales..

What amazes me is his brother is actually pretty good. I wish we could get some kind of Gumbel substitution on this one.

Braynt DUMBel will definitely ruin the moment... plan on him saying "KYLE Brady back to pass" about 5 or 6 times.

At least he stopped saying, "And they turn the ball over on downs" every time a team punted. He still says "appears to have a first down" even if the runner makes it by ten yards, and every time a WR misses a ball or it is defensed or even if it bounces off his facemask, he still says, "in and out of his hands."

But yeah, the real problem is that he sounds a cross between like PeeWee Herman and Ed Grimley. (I must say.)

It will be good for the whole country to see how bad he is and hopefully the NFL will be unable to ignore his shortcomings and replace him next year.

He said that all throughout last year after a failed third down conversion, I have not liked him ever since his first game. His brother has a much better voice for play-by-play but even he is no top of his craft PBP man.

Gumbel has not had a play-by-play role in over 25 years, and I even read one source that said this is his first permanent play-by-play role ever. Whatever the case may be, I can certainly see why his success is from his little HBO show and not calling games..

Gumbel is boring. I sounds like he would rather be some where else than calling the game. Hopefully NFLN gets smart and get some one good top call the game.

When you say "no one's perfect", Tom Brady takes this as a personal insult.

I don't know what you guys are complaining about. I can almost hear it now:

"And a plethora of Defensive Backs converge on Moss as he advances toward the End Zone!!"

That's EPIC.

I actually like his brother Greg quite a bit. I preferred him and Phil Simms far more then Jim Nantz/Phil Simms .
