TNF on Amazon

Seeing Herbstreit and Al Michaels is quite an interesting duo. Wow. This is quite the elaborate production. So far I like it.

They are paying a lot of money

To me Al Michaels, Mike Tirico, and Kirk are all the big game voices across pro and college. Having Michaels and Kirk together is a real treat.

I don’t like Herby that much. Al isn’t bad though.

Man there is some lady Chiefs fan with a high pitched scream right next to the booth.

Herbie can get bent after his fondling of OSU’s ballsack for three hours two weeks ago in Columbus.

 

[Veritate Duce Progredi]

Was that really not an interception by the Chargers? I'm not rooting for either team but it sure seemed like that he showed control and the ball did not move excessively after he went to the ground with it.

It was clear as fuckin day to me that he caught it but they overturned it and Herb was screaming like he works on the side as Mahomes fluffer,… I don’t get it

Ehh if Quinn was doing our game and we were beating the #5 team in the country don't you think he'd be salivating too? What pisses me off is when someone like Flutie who isn't even associated with either team playing is shitting on ND.

Yes, but I’d be fine with that, y’know, because I’m also a homer.

I hope someday the Quinn with ND thing happens.

I thought Herbestreit was great working with Al Michaels.

Either he's better without Fowler, or I just don't like Fowler... probably moreso the "disliking Fowler" thing.

Herbie/Fowler gives you that "Saturday Night Football" feel that Musberger used to give, but that's his only redeeming quality. His decisions on when to act excited are inconsistent, and he tries to predict the play as it's happening, instead of just telling you what's going on. He'll often say something like "and he's stepping his way into the endzon--- nooo, tackled inside the 5" because he's trying to narrate a big moment, instead of just doing the play-by-play as intended.

That's funny that you think it gives you the Musberger feel, because I actually think the opposite. Fowler to me has a 3:30 game voice, and brings no gravitas to the proceedings. Herbstriet is fine, though I think he's also a little bland. If you were to switch Gus Johnson's usual time slot and Fowler's, I think both would be more appropriate.

 

[Free Manera]

Fowler is the worst. That's all. That's the post.

The Amazon NFL picture quality was garbage, at least for me, and last week the wonderful people at Comcast did upgrades in our neighborhood.

I turned on that Lord of the Rings thing on Prime for a comparison and I saw black elves. So I shotgunned three White Claws and went to bed.

I really like/liked Todd Blackledge as an analyst.

Just wait til you see the black dwarves 😱

My picture kinda sucked too. The feed was choppy. I’m sure Amazon will get it figured out though. They spent too much not to.

 

[The Polish Irishman]

I create a drinking game....every time Herbie says college game or references college football, you must chug the rest of your drink

When you are adult enough to understand that elves, dwarves and mermaids are fictional beings everything just falls into place.

I shared the same sentiment that it will eventually improve. Blurry picture and choppy feed for sure.

Wasn't really paying attention to the commentators.
