I started doing it in the 90s when Madden would go on and on about how great Favre was....while he would be working a Giants vs Eagles match up!

Eh. They just got annoying after a while. I will agree that MNF has the best calling crew.

and I share your lament skymike. I've gotten links to him the past two weeks, but it's always behind so it's hard to listen to.

Just remember, it could have been Chris Collinsworth. I'd rather listen to Bobcat Goldwaithe call a game than Collinsworth.

Angry

R U Serious? I live in Dallas and even a lot of Cowboy fans hate Joe Yuck and Troy Aiky-Breaky. I gave them some advice: Like when we turn down the sound on the TV and turn up Jim Henderson and Hokie Gajan on WWL-AM 870, y'all turn those stooges down and turn up 105.3 The Fan for Brad Sham and Babe Laufenberg (He was a former Cowboy and he played behind Bobby Hebert and Dave Wilson in Jim Mora's first season in New Orleans). The only time I want to hear Yuck and Aiky-Breaky is when I need to find some jokes.....OOPS!! They Are JOKES!!

Aikman had a few Homeristic moments in that game but he wasn't belligerent with it, he did give Saints their due especially in the opening of the game when he said
"I never seen a Superbowl Championship team get so little attention especially with this type of winning record!"
He was right on the money there, however it was hard to listen to him, he seemed to just ramble on and on, and then the love fest for his former team got a little aggravating at times especially when they were down by 17 and he kept figuring out good stat's to call up for the Boys, but OH BOY when the Cowboys came back! The excitement in the announcer's voices seemed obvious as hell!!!

Anyway we won, im glad thats over and i can watch all the division rival games relaxed hoping they fall on their face (ESPECIALLY ATL WHERE LUCK HAS TO RUN OUT SOON!!)

Overall I really do like Aikman as and announcer, just not when the Cowboys are playing. I think he would be great calling other games, and wish he would.
