The official: Whine about MNF Thread!

[letekro]

I think Kornheiser takes enough abuse.

I would like to give Mike Tirico a share of the spotlight. Is there anyone out there with a more annoying "excited voice"? For some reason, I cringe whenever there's a big play because I have to deal with his "excited voice."

Does anyone know what I'm talking about here? It's so over-the-top, but not in a good way, like Gus Johnson - in a bad way. I much prefer Jim Nantz's understated style.

At least it is better then the old ESPN Sunday Night football. Mike Patrick, Joe Theismann and Paul Maguire were brutal.

The cup IS half full now that you mention it.

MNF is like going out with the village slut. It's good when it's going on, but you wish there was another alternative.
That's what I've been told. No first hand experience.

I don't understand -- you complain about Monday Night Football but you don't watch it?

Yes, every second of it. But, that doesn't mean I have to like it. Don't forget, I'm from Maine, I have been brought up to endure.

OK, I just want to say that I hate MNF. I hate it more when the Patriots are playing. Have to wait a entire day for football, I hate that. Starts late and ends late and the next day and I'm tired as hell trying to work, I hate that.

I also hate the crew that they have on there. Cornhead brings nothing but attempts to be funny which he misses 90% of the time. Jaws is kinda OK, and I can't even remember who the other bonehead is.

I want my Patriots football on Sunday afternoon at 1PM or my preferred time 4PM.

And by the way, I hate Sunday Night Football too. I"ll be back in a few weeks to really whine about the NFLN game.

I hate it too. Especially when the Pats are playing. I can't wait to watch the Pats play by the time Friday roles around, but then to wait until Monday sucks.

Tonight, I think I might Mute the espn crew and tune into Geno and Gil.
Do they have an internet station?

Another poster put this up a few weeks ago. It's worked for me:

Just out of curiosity what is the record for most consecutive late night games in a row. Pats must be making history here

Tied, I believe, with Broncs, who did it TWICE (per Reiss):

If only, I have a DVR but I can only watch sports live, I can't stand to watch it taped.

 

[Disco Volante]

Only 11 minutes have gone by since my last post?!

This is very annoying. Must find something to do....

As a student, I friggin hate this! I have an AP U.S test tomorrow and only lord knows how much rest I'm gonna get tonight especially when I have to be at school tomorrow by 6:30am.

 

[Mike the Brit]

My goodness, Homer, you weren't wrong!

Here they are whining about the game not starting till 8.30. Don't they know how many people will be staying up till 4.30 am in Europe to watch it? (I can't begin to figure what time it is in HongKong for Patjew -- Tuesday Morning Football, I suppose.)

And then there are those who are whining about going to work tired tomorrow -- well, I notice that they've been able to post on Patsfans.com today while getting on with their neurosurgery and air traffic control management. If they've got that kind of brain power I wouldn't be worried ...

It took about two words out of Kornheiser's mouth to get me to mute the sound.
