  1. I don't, but there's some new realities that didn't exist 12 months ago that make me think it won't be an easy re-tool.
  2. With what writers? They gutted their sports department, which seems to have directly led to their best remaining writer deciding to move elsewhere.
  3. Vic's part of the old boys network. Vic covered the team in the glory days. Terry is as nostalgic as they come. Terry runs the BN. I'll take off my tin hat now.
  4. There was always a bit of Omar Little in him on Twitter...you come at the king, you best not miss... I appreciated this, because it tugged back the veil of anonymity many users think they should be able to hide behind.
  5. If you possess a sense of humor, I'd say you'd have been immune too. I found 99% of his interactions to be funny. Others obviously didn't.
  6. Mine too. His previous work on the sidelines and in the booth was at least semi-coherent. It's unfortunate, the team seems willing to invest in a serious show with some production value. That 12-3 slot could and should be fantastic.
  7. I try to refrain from criticizing these guys as much as possible as I generally expect little from these shows. I'm an easy grader, just give me some decent discussion and a few laughs, and I'm good. But you're 100% correct in your assessment. Murph needed a "conversationalist" to compliment his inability to talk normally to guests. Tasker is no such thing. His memory might be distorted from the hits he took, but it seems like reads his rundown from the show's producers on his way to the stadium each morning. The minimal preparation it seems he does is apparent.
  8. No. But Murph was staring at him like he was a slab of ribs.
  9. Probably cash advance from agent. Most guys do it for a Benz or a new watch. Good on him for using his as a down payment.
  10. 1) Allen starts week 1 2) 6-10 3) Tre make Pro Bowl
  11. Two things... 1) Yes, you are correct. 2) When you put it like that, it's so damn unbelievable we missed the playoffs for 17 years.
  12. Interesting. Pretty sure he started at ESPN around 08/09. TG has noted he turned down another contract at ESPN to return to the BN.
  13. Without knowing the economics, I'd agree. Jerry was probably one of the highest paid writers at the BN.
  14. Terry seems to have thin skin. I still think he thinks he deserves an annual parade for buying both team, regardless of on-ice/on-field performances.
  15. Nate's going to have a long career in broadcasting.
  16. Maybe all you puss's who said Sully and Bucky were meanies will pony up the $2.99/mo now. Not holding my breath.
  17. I'm sure his brain is showing no side effects from the past 20 years.
  18. 12 years in the league. And yes, I respect anyone's viewpoint more than Phil Simms.
  19. Last thing I want is him staring down a rookie QB on the sidelines because he didn't throw to him.
