    So ESPN/ABC Wants Musburger With Palmer For All Games Broadcasted On SEC Network?

    That's the report I'm getting. I liked him better on ABC for the prime time games.

    Unusual combination. I liked him with Herbstreit


    Musburger/Palmer for Arkansas VS Auburn


    Fowler will be with Herbstreit for Florida State VS Oklahoma State.

    I dont get it. Fowler isn't bad at all but the Musburger/Herbstreit combo was excellent.

    If someone is going to make a change CBS needs to lose Lundquist and Danielson. No way they should be doing some of football's best games.

    Palmer definitely gambles. I've seen him sweating and getting unusually frustrated several times over the past years.

    Fowler muscled his way into the A-team spot due to his contract situation.

    He played hardball and ESPN folded and gave him what he wanted.

    Heard Palmer point blank say a certain team was trying to cover the spread last year on a Thursday night game.

    jesse is an obnoxious d-bag. just rambles on after every play and is often wrong. like when they were reviewing the td and he kept saying it was a td even though his knee was clearly down.

    fowler really has become a miserable prick always with that arrogant scowl, i remember the guy used to be happy go lucky waaaaaaaaaaaaaay back in the scholastic sports america days

    i tune them all out besides you can get way more info that actually means something here on these forums, more than ANY pre or post game show on any network. cant remember the last time one of these guys even had the balls to say anything worthwhile

    I'm not a big fan of Fowler either.

    List of announcers that I can't stand... quite a few.

    Fowler
    Palmer
    Danny Kanell
    Matt Millen
    Joey Galloway
    Brian Griese
    Mark Jones is a pain in my ass. Along with Rod Gilmore. Clearly don't know half of what's going on.
    Gus Johnson - Anytime I have money on a game... this guy makes me grind my teeth. Guy so effing loud. For no reason.
    Andre Ware - Guy is horrible.
    Brock Huard - Hello. I am a robot. I say the same sh#$ over and over. Fuk this guy.
    Joey Harrington - Better commentator than QB. But that's not saying much. Still sucks.


    Guys that use to suck... but I grew to like them.

    Troy Aikman - Hated him his first 2-3 seasons. Guy is actually pretty good. He settled down and has good flow.
    Chris Spielman - Again... was worse the first 2-3 seasons.... and now... I can handle him.



    I'm sure there are more a-holes but I can't put a name to their face at the moment.

    musberger clearly had a/m last night, he was practically rubbing it in the publics face every time a and m scored, i havent seen him that wound up in quite a while actually. palmer is annoying tool IMO, i have heard him talking about betting occasionally but generally he sucks. fowler is definitely a degenerate, but hes more reserved, same with herbstreit. i would have liked to see musberger with tebow actually

    Palmer yesterday " back when i was playing we would be beating teams by 60 + points in the 4th quarter
    and i was still chucking it down the field"

    Palmer loves to stroke his own rooster.

    i remember the one rose bowl where penn st played usc i think it was about 6 years ago, he clearly had usc and they were blowing them out all game and penn st almost got a backdoor cover, i thought he was going to have a heart attack on live tv, he even said something about sportsbooks in vegas being on their feet during the last play

    Hard to know who mustburgers bet on this Arkansas game. Execs must have told him to keep it on the down low

    Love these announcers. Musburger was calling it down the middle... semi partial towards Auburn though.

    Guy is 75 years old. Wow. Sounds great... hope he keeps it going!

    and you guys can do better


    might as well not have announcers if it was up to you all as you do not like anyone

    They are all pretty good period and make way more in 3 years than we will in a lifetime

    Joey Harrington is the worse announcer ever! Why does this guy sound so cocky? He's so loud! Rambling and rambling. Hey Joey... you sucked at QB'ing for the Lions. What makes you think you know anything about football? Who did he blow to get this job?
