tarantula 0 Posted July 10, 2007 Who are your favorite NFL & College football announcers? For me it is definately Keith Jackson'' Whoa Nellie'' Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fatman 16 Posted July 10, 2007 Joe Theissman. The fact that he got kicked off of MNF is a travesty, a sham and a mockery. It's a traveshamockery! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
matt770 77 Posted July 10, 2007 Al Michaels. I liked Madden when he was in his prime but now I feel sort of embarrassed for him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SheikYerbuti 18 Posted July 10, 2007 (edited) Who are your favorite NFL & College football announcers? Not even close, Howard Cosell in a walk. And he went off the air when I was about 15 years old. Edited July 10, 2007 by SheikYerbuti Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kcmast 2 Posted July 10, 2007 Growing up, I loved listening to Jim Irwin and Max McGee call the Packers games on the radio. I think they were loaded by the end of the first. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Wolf 0 Posted July 10, 2007 (edited) I don't really remember too much of Cosell (except for the episode of Odd Couple!) so I'll have to go with Michaels and Jackson. Edited July 10, 2007 by The Wolf Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dont Rookie Me........ 41 Posted July 10, 2007 It may have been that it was that I was a kid the Steelers were kicking arse and Monday nights were big then, but no one comes close to Cosell. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LooGie 0 Posted July 10, 2007 Madden is the absolute bast. I never liked him before I heard him on Sirius. It dawned on me how he dumbs himself down for a less knowledgeable viewer base, because when he's just talking football, with the Sirius crew, he's completely ingenious, and on top of his game. So after I noticed that, i really started to listen to him, and he can tell what plays are coming up and explains them in a way that is pure magic. He's even better with Al at his side. They are the cream of the crop and nobody compares. Jaws with Dick Vermeil is a good combo, and quite entertaining, but id' take robots or ticker over the MNF crew.

whomper 644 Posted July 11, 2007 I think Phil Simms calls a great game Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
yo mama 20 Posted July 11, 2007 Won't anyone say Denis Miller??? I loved Miller, despite the fact that he was a condescending, overly-intellectual jerk who didn't didn't know much about the sport of football. Eh, birds of a feather, I suppose. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ursa Majoris 126 Posted July 11, 2007 Buck / Aikman and Michaels / Madden. Madden got much better last year. Of these, Michaels is the best individual. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HowboutthemCowboys 1,161 Posted July 11, 2007 I really like Gary Thorne (sp?) from ESPN. I wish they'd let him do football. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ruffian 0 Posted July 11, 2007 Buck and Aikman--though Buck carries Aikman like a sack of potatoes throughout. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Big Talker 1 Posted July 12, 2007 I agree that Phil Simms calls a great game. He's probably the best one out there right now IMO. Back in the day (late '60's), Curt Gowdy ruled. Keith Jackson is certainly one of the all-time greats as well. I did not care that much for Cosell, but he sure knew how to make the game interesting. Mitch Holthus is the best NFL radio announcer I've ever heard. (Chief fans will understand.) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
