    ESPN team simply awful
    That team was atrocious on Monday night.

    First, stop comparing Vince Young to Michael Vick. Vick isn't in the league anymore, and he couldn't hold Young's jockstrap. Young is superior in ALL phases, not to mention a better person (at least that we know of).

    Second, I know you have to mention Katrina, but this is a sporting event. Enough with the depressing news all night. If ESPN is so decicated to rebuilding, donate some money from your billion-dollar corporate profits or shut the hell up.

    Lastly, it was pure comedy listening to Suzy Kolber with 3 minutes left talking about the plight of people in "District 9" in New Orleans. Instead of talking about the Titans win and maybe they can be a playoff team, they resort to this crap because NO was losing. This chick likely spends $100 to get her hair styled ($200 if it was styled right) and she's talking about peoiple in District 9.

    Then she says "I talked to a FEMA official this week about the rebuilding process......" Imagine a FEMA official getting that phone call? The White House on Line 1 and Suzy Kolber waiting on Line 2?

    It's a frecking joke.

      They have all these prepared points on their agenda that they have to cover, regardless of the game. Last week with Philly in the red zone (!) they managed to fill that whole segment of the game with talk of Andy Reid's troubles with his sons, and how hard things were for Reid. Retarded.

        I want to watch football. All I get is some dribble happening while the game is in progress. It seems like the game is an after thought. Get with the program. It's no wonder I'm asleep by half time, I forget there's a game on.

          What a freakin joke.....now announcing teams are just news teams stationed at a football game?

          Kornheiser BLOWS! The dude that brought him on has already been fired I bet.
          Him & McGuire are the most annoying ones out there IMO....& now I have to "hear" McGuire during my "therapeutic" COLLEGE GAMEDAY SATURDAYS.

          I know Madden rambles, but, at least it's "mainly" about FOOTBALL.....or in the past 6 legged turkeys

          Thinking about Kolbler on line 2.....that's funny,...... "This is Suzy w/ESPIN & were covering the progress of Katrina victims, we'll also be chiming in on some football game that's going on down there as well.....I need to speak directly w/ Hilarious Clinton please".

              I like Tirico and Jaws. Tony K is terrible.

              If you haven't seen it, take a look at my post in Players Talk.

              The only comment so far was from JJ, and he made it into a racial thing that is unrelated to what my post was addressing.

                  Micheal Vick played for the sorry ass Falcons so to think you cant compare him to Vince Young is like comparing the 1993 Cowboys to the 2007 Cowboys , is mere specualtion with no real factual final conclusion .

                  MNF should bring back Dennis Miller and have Vin Scully the Dodgers announcer be the play by play guy .
                  Those 2 should run the whole show with Dennis fighting to get a deep analogy joke in every 2 minutes .
                  Weed heads all over the world would feel like it was the greatest night of their lives .
                  Special guests would sit in for an hour or so each week including Snoop Dog , Tonya Harding , Bobbit dude that got his shit cut off , Marilyn Manson , Ozzie , OJ Simpson , Mike Tyson , Kidd Rock , Ric Flair and Jimmy Carter .

                  These are the interesting people , come on , dont kid yourself . They make for the best entertainment .

                      Kornheiser is the pits.

                      I think Kornheiser is there to represent the ordinary person who is forced to watch the game and Kornheiser spins the tabloid side of sports or whatever relates to the game or players. Otherwise Kornheiser is there to joust with Jaws (who is doing fine). Everytime Kornheiser opens his mouth it just feels fake and tacky, and the guy is just AWFUL.

                      I think MNF should bring in younger personalities who are strongly grounded in sports. What about Max Kellerman? What ever happened to Max after his fall from Fox?

                      Anybody but Kornheiser! At times I just turn off the sound and turn on the radio broadcast. How about Parcells? Even silly Woody Paige from Around the Horn would be more entertaining than Kornheiser.

                        Max Kellerman

                        Oh I forgot, Max left ESPN after hosting Around the horn. The guy on now is ok, but the show was really good with Kellerman there. I guess ESPN holds grudges since Kellerman left them. Hell, the host on Around the Horn now would still be better than Kornheiser!

                            I almost vomited all over the keyboard at the guy who dropped Dennis Millers name. The sad reality is quality commentators are a dying breed, the really capable guys don't get the big assignments. Once Madden croaks, imagine how much it will suck. Who will take over Sunday nights game with Al? I don't even want to think about it.

                              You probably liked Howard and Jimmy the Greek .
                              Summerall was the best in my opinion .
                              You like Dennis Miller to , you just dont like having to watch the game with your theasarus and having to think probably sucks too .
