On the whole, I think that NFL broadcasts are superb, especially now that we have HDTV. Camera angles keep getting better and instant replay has emerged as an intergral part of the game (and the entertainment).
IMHO however, the weakest part of the package is the announcing. I don't like most of the national TV announcers. The top CBS announcing team is Nance and Simms. Given the attention and hype the Pats are getting thus far in 2007, I'm afraid that we are going to be hearing much of Phil Simms.
IMHO I think Phil Simms is irritating. He's a motor mouth who never shuts up during a game. He rarely provides analysis during games (X's and O's). Instead, he tends to talk about "the locker room", his opinions, and lots of fluff.
I, for one, cannot wait for the day when I can selectively mute the announcer audio while still hearing the crowd and game noise.
Anybody else feel the same way?
BTW: can anybody recommend equipment to sync up the radio to the HDTV broadcast? Last time I tried, it was enough out of sync to make it unwatchable. Thanks in advance!
