Anybody else getting really tired of Deion Sanders on NFL Network?

Yes, had the same thoughts tonight. He's a goofball...

Irvin is on crack sometimes, I think literally. But still, at least he has something to say when he wants to. Sanders just loves to hear himself talk about nothing.

Every time I hear Peon yelling/singing "I believe in Eliiiiiiiii", I wish I could shoot him through the television.

"Teeeeeebow, whoa oh."

Call me strange, but when I turn on a TV show and I don't like what I see, I just turn to another channel----there's like 20 of 'em.

I was tired of col sanders when he was still playing football.

This morning Faulk and Irvin were having some players only type 'chat'.

Marshall went as far to say that Aaron wasn't elite anymore after he watched Matt Flynn's performance.

The over the top yelling between Dieon and Irving, and don't forget Sapp gets to be too much sometimes. You can almost see Eisen rolling his eyes.

Either way, what Faulk said was absurd. The more I watch NFL Network the more I am becoming annoyed. But with BSPN the only other choice... what's a fan to do?!

That's just the point. Blair, there is nowhere else to go for NFL talk. It's NFL Network, or ESPN. If there were another option, I'd go there.

And Marshall Faulk is an idiot. Of course Aaron is an elite QB.

Some Patriots fans laughing at Faulk's comment.

Um, can't you go to this place to get some intelligent NFL talk?

Last time I checked, Times Four was not on television.

Is there some rule that says it's only possible to get NFL talk from television?

I like Sanders, Irvin and Sapp... But I agree, that "Teeeebow, whoa oh" thing is annoying. Same goes for Sanders and his "I BELIEVE in Eli" crap.

Funny guys, but they overplay a few things.

Loud, obnoxious, and uninformed makes for great NFL ratings.

If a few guys went on the air every week and said things like, "The team that executes it's plan the best, protects the football, controls the line and the clock will probably win" that would be boring. Correct, but boring.

Yet millions of people still watch it. If it aggravates people that bad, I just can't understand why they continue to tune in.

Look at the BSPN and Skip Bayless banter around here... It's a seemingly never ending whine fest about old Skippy. I don't have a clue what that dip**** has to say... because I don't watch him. Seems rather simple to me.

agree

are they mimicking the song from the Wizard of Oz?

Mooch is just as, if not more, annoying with the yelling. It's awkward. It's as though his directors tell him to get more animated on camera, particularly when he is up there with the other stooges.

I long for the days of Jimmy the Greek and Irv Cross. Those guys worked it.

Meh, I'll still take it over the IDOTS at ESPN. I cannot listen to Berman and his raspy messed up voice at all

Yes, they are. The soldiers guarding the Wicked Witches' castle do that.

No, but when I'm stuck in bed, I can't access the computer.

Yes, oh my god, it is actually embarrassing when those idiots do that chant. You are on national TV morons, not Dave fom the Wal-Mart stock departments basement bar playing armchair QB drinking Bud Light. Ridiculous how bad commentary has gotten, I blame it all on Keith Olberman and Dan Patrick's old Sunday night "big show" they use to do. Ever since, you can't be anything other than a complete ass when talking sports on tv. It has spawned the likes of Kenny Mayne and Colin Cowherd among countless other bigmouth douchebags.

I spend 6-8 hours a day on a machine that stretches my leg out. When I'm done, I can get up, move around a little bit.

I enjoyed watching the Three Stooges growing up. Never failed to laugh everytime Mo bent some steel on Curly's head. The key was shutting the TV after watching an episode.

I still watch NFLN hoping for Primetime to bend something on Sapp.

Irvin and Deion and Mooch -- oh my!

To each their own... I thought those two were dry, boring and stale.

The bottom line is that there is only so much to talk about regarding any particular game and the explosion of the amount of analyzers and programs espn, nfln, csn etc just floods the airwaves with idiotic comments from idiotic commentators. Its cheap programming, (most of these guys can't be getting much)and the pregame shows especially, must get pretty good advertising from people tuning in early to catch their game.

Yes, NY will get all the hype this week. It will seem as though they are a reincarnation of the Steel Curtain. But who is going to turn on the TV or radio and want to hear how this game is most likely going to be another GB win.

As for the games themselves, the broadcaster's jobs are to keep the games interesting. That explains all the fawning over whoever is hot at the moment on the field.

Yes, to many of us, one knowledgeable color person breaking down a play, explaining a defense or offensive formation, etc would be great, but the broadcasts aren't meant for us, they are for my wife.

... because there's no other options for football news on TV. ESPN and NFL Net. are equally bad. However, I'll suffer through 50 minutes of their crap to get a small bit of news regarding the Packers - if I am lucky. Also, what's this venue of having bimbos asking the so called "analysts" questions. If it for entertainment value, then why do they not show more legs? Show more legs and I'll be quiet.

marklawrence and I agree that women have no business talking about football

I could be wrong but I thought during the 3 game losing streak it went

Teeeeebow, oooooh no

I was tired of Deon Sanders when he was still playing in the NFL.

I'm pretty sure this place is full of faces that were meant for message boards.

and arms that were meant for rugs

The act is getting stale... They just need some new material.

Never was a Deion fan especially when he played for the Cowboys. He was a great player but too much of a showboat for me. One guy on ESPN pregame that I disliked at first is Keyshawn Johnson but I have to admit he's gotten better.
