Would Gronk and Brady announcing the same game be whatever the opposite of hall of fame quality is?

 

[Brotherblues]

That's amazing for Gronk. I'm guessing that's over 1M per year, which is unbelievable relative to the amount of actual work that goes with it (basically free money). And he'll love doing it. Tip of the hat to our boy.

Do folks still watch pre-game shows? I got **** to do until 1pm.

He's far from perfect in front of the camera, but at least Gronk has had a couple of seasons of practice on a part-time basis.

It's about time they get younger.

Why Terry Bradshaw wasn't put out to pasture years ago is one of life's mysteries; he should have been shown the door before Jimmy Johnson. Bradshaw is constantly stumbling over his words, even when he is staring down, reading them off a monitor.. The 'fun old buffoon' character is tiresome and overdone; his interviews are cringeworthy.

Like what? Post more on Patsfans?

Jimmy Johnson is sharp as hell, or at least was. Gronk is an incredibly talented buffoon.

My apologies. The post said Jimmy Johnson and I read Terry Bradshaw. No idea why. JJ is sharp, you are right, but not a great TV personality IMO. Gronk might get better in the role like TB12 did over his first season.

I'd recommend more dietary fiber.

All the more reason they should have rid themselves of Bradshaw, as opposed to Johnson.

Each person has a role on the panel, and Gronk fills that Bradshaw-buffoon character perfectly.

Which begs another question: when Fox does their halftime and post-game shows, why do they insist on selecting the one person from that group with the lowest IQ and worst speaking skills, to attempt to talk quickly while provided the voiceover to highlights?

I find the Fox halftime show incredibly hard to watch

Jimmy Johnson goofy?

It will be a lot harder with this news.

Gronk is not a TV guy.

 

[Huckleberry1]

Gronk was a first ballot HOF player, and he’s a terrible analyst. The McCourty brothers blew the Manning brothers off the screen with their work last night. They should be doing every Patriots game.

 

[Triumph]

Remember when Gronk wore his purple Barney suit on his Fox debut?

It was over sized like a MF. You could fit another person inside a pant leg.

Cavemen are more eloquent.
