Troy Aikman sucks

[MJZiggy]

Then he'd have to admit they got beat...

[Freak Out]

I could be wrong, but I thought at one point Acheman said that the Giants beat Denver on the road for the opportunity to face GB. You would think he could at least remember the name of his former team.

He played to long...one to many shots to the noggin.

Did you hear one of the classic Aikman-isms last night when he called it a "tie-tie score?"

He is god-awful.

Not to be outdone, Pam Oliver reported on the heaters on the NY sidelines and proclaimed that the heat blowing on the NY side if freezing

My Rant......and I guess it's not just at Aikman but he was involved on Sunday. OK, so 3/4 of the people at home watching the game really wish they could be there. BUT, while sitting at home watching it on TV, why don't they let us see them call out the players names and see them run through the tunnel? While that is going on, we have to sit there and listen to Buck/Aikman go blah blah blah. I don't care what they have to say at that point. Everyone is excited to watch the game, and seeing the players come out on the field is cool, IMO.

If you listened to entire spiel, she said that the benches that Giants brought in for themselves were not working correctyly and in fact blowing freezing air. She didn't do anything wrong on that one.

They brought in their own benches??? I didn't hear that.

So....having said that...........when a team plays a warm weather team such as AZ, do they get to bring in canapies to cover the sidelines?
When GB played AZ in Tempe, GB had to wear their home uniforms and sit on the sunny side of the field...............it was 102 at game time.

Perhaps some day, listening to morons like Buck and Aikmen will be an option that you can turn off during a game. I was thinking pretty much the same damned thing throughout the game........"Why in the world should we have to listen to such ass-clowns?" At times, they just seemed to babble, just to have something to do, other than freeze their asses off.

I do have to think that at least it was better than listening to Madden and Summerall. Madden never shut his mouth, yet rarely added any intelligent commentary..........Turduken anyone? Summerall was so damned Senile, that he never even seemed to know which two teams he was supposed to be commenting on.

Years ago, my friends and I would turn down the volume on the TV and listen to the radio coverage of the game while watching it. It almost seems to me, that the commentary on Television has been dumbed down way to much for the casual fan. When was the last time that you turned up your television while thinking "Gee, I cannot wait to hear what this jackass has to say next"??? But then, you really have to wonder about the intelligence behind a lot of what we see for football coverage these days...........how many times have we all had to watch that Caliendo dork do his Madden imitation? If I have seen it once, it was one to many times......how do idiots like that even get on television in the first place?

Yes. Oliver reported at the beginning of the game that the Giants didn't like the benches the Packers provided so they rented their own. Then they malfunctioned. She was following up on her own story.

Should just be a perk to having 'home field advantage'............the ability to freeze your oppenent's asses off!
Were the bench rentals from locals?
