Been reading about Vince McMahon lately and boy is Goodell an unimpeachable paragon of virtue in comparison.

90% of the time I don't care at all whose announcing, their differences are negligible and they're all trained to be inoffensive and unremarkable. Manningcast is the only exception, which is a different format. Occasionally I catch someone I don't recognize whose observations and delivery are unique and interesting, it's always an ex-coach and they never stick with broadcasting. The two that come to mind are Dick Vermeil and Marvin Lewis, I remember enjoying hearing like 1 or 2 games they called. They'd always point out things others, even ex-players, wouldn't and have a different take on the the hows and whys of the game. Vermeil was very insightful, articulate, and soft-spoken. Both of them were super knowledgeable of course but were also able to convey those things pretty easily, which I have to believe comes from decades of doing the same thing to actual nfl players. They also probably weren't announcing as a long-term career post coaching, which kind of changes the tone. To be honest Gruden did this too in his own way, he was able to explain mostly offensive concepts like routes and qb windows to a national audience. More ex-coaches should become announcers. VVVVV He'd probably be good at it Miss Lonelyhearts fucked around with this message at 22:19 on Feb 16, 2024 |

It gets lost now with everything that came out during his second stint with the Raiders, but Gruden the first few years he was doing MNF was great at color commentary, between explaining stuff well and his general shenanigans (Calling Peyton “The Sheriff”, his “Gruden Grinders”, similar stuff) and very popular for a while. It was after he’d been there 5~ years, when it became clear that he wanted to get back to coaching, and more so after Tirico left and he was paired Sean McDonough (Who wasn’t great and it was pretty clear he and Gruden didn’t work well together) that he went south.

I was listening to Harlan's radio calls for the super bowl for part of the game. He's just so good.
