No. Fuck no.

This is a parody account. This is not a parody tweet.

This whole fucking league and the entire media ecosystem built around it has become a farce over the last 10 or so years.

This is what happens when you get marketing/communications execs running a sports league.

Feh, this isn't some sacred duo. I think Buck has ridden Troy's coattails all these years. I'd be happy to see Troy leave and work with someone else and watch Buck try to make do with Jason Kelce or McAfee or whoever.

Of course. It's all a show now. Look no further than the halftimes shows we have had over the past 3-5 years. And, hell, the draft.

I don't really care who the announcers are, it's more the behind the scenes PR/public opinion manipulation coming from the league and it's surrogates that I find annoying.

Why did ESPN sour on Aikman? It's like re-signing Madden but not Summerall.

They probably think he's getting too old and they need to appeal to a younger demo, something like that.

Plus I think Disney makes them do other shows, like Buck doing some inane ABC game show type thing, and I'm sure Troy rightly has no use for that.

Is Buck any younger though?

I wonder if it's just that they value play by play more than analysts.

I mean, Clark is an idiot and has an axe to grind.

I'd say more like 25 years, but yeah.

Just imagine.

 

[Cotton]

Just imagine.

I can and it would be awesome. For at least a couple of games, and then it would probably get old. But, for a minute it would be hilarious.

 

[Cujo]

Zesty.

Zesty.

or how about when announcer said Roger Staubach runs like a sissy during a playoff game
