The NFL Network has finally found a way to make Bryant Gumbel sound intelligent. They took out Chris Collinsworth and replaced him with Deion Sanders and Marshall Faulk.

WTF

Holy shit what a fuckin' train wreck. I like Faulk but it is readily apparent that he has no business in the booth. Sanders, well he has no business being on TV to begin with.

But hey, Gumbel sounds better. I mean, how can he not with these clowns.


edit: I found out that Collinsworth is out because of other obligations with the NFL. He should be back for the Cowboys game on Saturday but unfortunately, so will Gumbel....

Well at least the Rams and Steelers are making a game of it..

There is some good news.....

According to the Dallas Morning News, they are going to put a longer delay in on the Cowboys/Panthers game so the video will be in sync with audio from 1310AM or 104.1FM. So at least you can turn down the TV volume and listen to Brad Sham.

Sweet. I tried doing that with the Packers game, but the delay was more annoying than Gumbel.

Luckily, I was at a noisy bar that drowned the sound out for a majority of the game. By the time I got home, the Steelers had pretty much won, so I wasn't paying much attention.

The Ticket on FM.

And it only works North of the Bush, it's in and out between Bush and 635, and no go south of 635.

I can not pick up the Ticket at home at all, 1310 or 104.1, but its also on 93.3 FM, but its spotty at best. Going to the inlaws to watch it any way and talk shit to my father-in-law, who is a cowboy-hater

Every time I hear Gumbles voice I think of the SNL skit they did "fun with real audio" where they draw cartoons and make up a stupid story with someones audio.

104.1? I'm never over there.

I keep mine on 1310 in my truck. When I'm at home off the Bush, 1310 and 104.1 both go in and out. As I drive to work off 635, 1310 gets stronger and 104.1 goes away completely. If I go to Frisco, 1310 goes away and 104.1 is at it's best.

Marshall was only on there because he was getting his # retired. The really do need to get rid of Gumbo.....I feel like I'm watching the news when he's talking.
