ChevyVanMiller Posted September 2, 2014 Posted September 2, 2014 Finally got around to reading the Sunday paper today and came across this article detailing a new NFL broadcast policy. Turns out games can now be flexed between networks and the Bills road game against NFC Chicago will be on FOX rather than CBS. "When the Bills open their season in Chicago next Sunday, there will not be a CBS broadcast team in Soldier Field. Though the Bills are an AFC team playing on the road, the game will be carried on Fox. It is part of the NFL’s new cross-flexing policy, in which the league can move games between the two networks in order to balance the TV lineup of desirable games on a given Sunday." Another game later in the season will flex also. http://www.buffalonews.com/columns/mixed-media/esiason-speaks-up-on-pressure-on-manuel-20140830
Miyagi-Do Karate Posted September 2, 2014 Posted September 2, 2014 Oh, joy. Get ready for the dim colors and muted sounds on your TV, dancing robots from 1992, and announcers you never heard of.
26CornerBlitz Posted September 2, 2014 Posted September 2, 2014 @AdamHoge Kenny Albert, Daryl Johnston and Tony Siragusa on the call for FOX's broadcast of #Bills at #Bears Sunday.
GOBILLS78 Posted September 2, 2014 Posted September 2, 2014 I don't mind Kenny, but Moose and Goose can go away.
The Real Buffalo Joe Posted September 3, 2014 Posted September 3, 2014 Oh, joy. Get ready for the dim colors and muted sounds on your TV, dancing robots from 1992, and announcers you never heard of. Do they really think anybody actually likes that guy?
26CornerBlitz Posted September 3, 2014 Posted September 3, 2014 Do they really think anybody actually likes that guy? Cletus? What a name!
The Real Buffalo Joe Posted September 3, 2014 Posted September 3, 2014 Cletus? What a name! Is that his name? Somehow I hate him even more now.
Over 29 years of fanhood Posted September 3, 2014 Posted September 3, 2014 This many posts in and nothing about EJ?

The Real Buffalo Joe Posted September 3, 2014 Posted September 3, 2014 This many posts in and nothing about EJ? EJ is only 1-1 in games on Fox, so he'll prolly come out and screw it all up. Also, the league is only doing this because they hate us. Better?
Miyagi-Do Karate Posted September 3, 2014 Posted September 3, 2014 Do they really think anybody actually likes that guy? It's bizarre. It's like a bad 1990s transformers cartoon. No one at fox has thought to question the robot?
YoloinOhio Posted September 3, 2014 Posted September 3, 2014 It's bizarre. It's like a bad 1990s transformers cartoon. No one at fox has thought to question the robot? my 7 year old has a toy version of that robot (the buckeye one, they sell them for college and pro). I think they do it for the kids?
sodbuster Posted September 3, 2014 Posted September 3, 2014 Oh, joy. Get ready for the dim colors and muted sounds on your TV, dancing robots from 1992, and announcers you never heard of. OK, so I'm not the only one who hates the fox broadcast.
Mark Vader Posted September 3, 2014 Posted September 3, 2014 It's bizarre. It's like a bad 1990s transformers cartoon. No one at fox has thought to question the robot? I can not believe that robot still exists.
sodbuster Posted September 3, 2014 Posted September 3, 2014 I can not believe that robot still exists. the robot is the least bad part of the whole thing. From the shatty commentators to the terrible score ribbons and graphics to the Blair Witch Project style camera work, it irritates me.
FireChan Posted September 3, 2014 Posted September 3, 2014 Fox's scoreboard is the worst thing I have ever seen. It makes the games even harder to watch.
mykidsdad Posted September 3, 2014 Posted September 3, 2014 Here's who should be color commentating the game to keep it interesting:
Charles Romes Posted September 3, 2014 Posted September 3, 2014 Great. Now I have to wait another 15 minutes for the bartender to find it on satellite.
drinkTHEkoolaid Posted September 3, 2014 Posted September 3, 2014 As bad as our typical cbs crew is this fox one will be worse. I started to realize I prefer cbs coverage. Hell at least they will know our roster. Here is to the goose screwing half of it up and telling stupid stories.
