Looks like Fox's "A" team will be at the poo dome this Sunday. Be prepared for Buck's fugly ass beard, lots of Brees slurping, Saints excuses, and monotonous play narration. "Newton! Endzone! Pass is...caught!" 

I'm muting the TV and tuning into the Spanish broadcast. But at least we get to see Erin Andrews on the sideline.

10-1 they are betting New Orleans Upset.

For sure they are. At least where I live, it seems like a lot of people want us to lose. I had a guy at work tell me "panthers are going to lose. I've never been more sure of anything more in my life. No way Brees puts up two dud games in a row" 

give me a break

Who in the hell else would you prefer? People gripe about every announcing duo like there's another definitively better. I'll take anything over the C teams. 

Thom Brennaman, who we've had for a few games, is very good. So is Jim Nance, although sometimes that's offset by Phil Simms' idiotic drivel. The SNF and MNF crews are great. And Troy is not half bad most of the time. I just cannot stand Joe Buck and his delivery or personality. He and Rhonda Barber are really the only 2 TV guys I've heard most people complain about.

Simms is so so bad. Concussed forever. Travesty he's paired with Jim Nantz. 

I like him a lot because he's so smart but a lot of people gripe about Collinsworth. 

Brennaman comes with Charles Davis who I can take or leave.

And that's the point. Opinions are mixed. There is no holy unquestioned duo when it comes to the announcing booth. The C team guys are C team for a reason, they're not as talented, and the A team guys, let's face it, don't know our team as well and it reflects in the knowledge they bring to the game. Which is what many wrongly perceive as bias - if you stop and think about it does anyone really think Joe Buck or anyone else is emotionally invested in the game's outcome?

      Monroe Freeling’s lovely GF

      With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.

      Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.

      Jeremy Fowler: Panthers draft day intel

      Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
