It's the Joe Buck / T Aikman show folks .

Was hoping for Nantz and Romo on Saints opening day.

I'll DVR the game so I can fast forward through the political venue. This is the kind of stuff that made me give up watching football. The announcers are discussing everything but the football game being played. The Saints are what I care about not the NFL.

Virtual impossibility. Saints/Bucs is a NFC matchup. NFC games belong to FOX. Since this is clearly the game of the week for Sunday, there was no way FOX was going to turn it loose.

Look for Nantz/Romo when the Saints are at home against an AFC opponent or a Saints cross-flex. That's how Saints games get to CBS. The former will be Saints-Chiefs week 15. The latter is an open question.

I've never really noticed the announcers. While watching a game I am watching the game. Whoever is "announcing" the game is nothing more than background noise. That's why it's always puzzled me about how some fans seem to dislike some announcing crew more than others. Now back in the day when I had to listen to games on the radio it was a different story. There the announcers are vital.

I was about to say the same thing. It is what it is. I have no issue with the FOX crew, but then again to me they are all interchangeable.

Interesting take AG.

A good announcing crew can make or break the experience of watching a sporting event, and that’s especially true with football.But hey that's just me. No need for a debate ... I'm simply not a fan of Buck and Aikman (I c an tolerate him due to the X's and O's IQ) but that Romo feller is kind of exciting. His ability to analyze and predict what's coming is refreshing.

Also Tony is really unbiased compared to all of the others and he has a sense of humor. He’s not dry like collinsworth and most of the others.

I know. To each his own. But I can honestly say that the crew calling a game has no impact to me personally on my enjoyment of watching the game. I've noted that some individuals get bent out of shape over the most trivial of matters, however. C'est la vie.
