1. Bring Shannon sharpe to the booth with idk Kenny Albert

2. Fox should put Kenny Albert and Shannon sharpe together lol. It would Marv Albert and Reggie miller

3. Supposedly Fox is getting Notre Dame at Ohio State out of this deal. ABC originally had this game but now it's going to be on Fox.

4. F Youtube and their stupid filters for never specifying what needs to be changed in the message, forcing me to figure it out myself, including having to split the message up into multiple parts sometimes!

5. (1 of 2) There is a good reason why Howard Cosell was paired with Frank the Giant, and Don the Cowboy back in the day. That is how important good commentary is needed, thus I'm not surprised that guys Iike Troy the Cowboy getting a huge paycheck to call games for them.
   
   The "flexing" BS is a lazy cop-out that only rewards deadbeats Iike Cris the Bengal, and Dennis the washed-up Not Ready for Primetime Player* with spots they don't deserve!

6. (2 of 2) And now ABC/ESPN gets that "flexing" BS for MONDAY nights! You think getting tickets for a SUNDAY afternoon game only to be turned into a night game was bad, just imagine a SUNDAY game becoming a MONDAY game (and vice versa)! I hope ABC/ESPN and the NFL enjoy empty seats later in the season, because there is going to be LOTS of them!

   *And yes, I know that Dennis the washed-up Not Ready for Primetime Player was before the "flexing" garbage, but the point still stands.

7. Disney definitely got the better of that exchange with Universal years ago.

   Short term=Al Michaels (real life person)
   
   Long term=Oswald the Lucky Rabbit (fictional character)

   Of course, Universal did manage to retain the Walter Lantz years of Oswald (aka the peak years of Oswald), so that's something right there.
   
   Disney has a lot of werk in order to reinvent Oswald if they are going to surpass the Walter Lantz years.

8. I feel so bad for Tom Hammond, Al Michaels, Mike Tirico and whoever else that has to be/have been saddled up with the cancer known as Cris the Bengal.
   
   If only DlCK Enberg and Bob Costas's one time partner Bob the Bengal would come out of retirement.

9. FOX really screwed over DlCK Stockton when they chose Buck to replace Summerall all those years ago.

10. Local bias >>> So called non bias

    I really would rather have that at this point. Besides, it would be very interesting if say, FOX had a playoff game between the Vikings and the Bears, and Green Bay FOX affiliate WLUK 11 had to choose between the Viking commentators, or the Bear commentators to listen too!
    Plus, Troy and Tony can be commentators for their beloved Cowboys. I'd bet Troy would be play-by-play.

11. Al Michaels and Kirk Herbstreit to Jeff Bezos "toy". Won't matter if the idiots at the NFL doesn't set-up bye weeks for the two teams before that Thursday game Iike the old guard did back in the 1990's…usually.

12. Manning Bros all the way!!!!

13. it's gonna be Tony Romo and Tim Tebow on fox.

14. Joe Buck is….

15. Buck is a terrible announcer. Lol

16. I’m actually blessed with this news as like most people I can’t stand Bucks commentary, I’d love to see Chris Myers and Kenny Albert together for the biggest games of the NFL regular season, playoffs and the Super Bowl on FOX as those two together would be fantastic in my opinion…

17. So they're officially a tandem.

18. Buck is also a baseball announcer, does that mean he'll be doing Sunday Night Baseball for the network also?

19. aikman and Buck are one of the worst duos ever and ESPN thinks this will get more viewers. Wow

20. Looks like they solved a problem for Fox! Now how do we get Beavis and Butthead off of NBC?

21. If I were MLB, I will be adding NBC back to the mix and add Peacock, USA Network, TBS and ESPN to the mix and do a rotation of the World Series every year alongside Fox just like the NFL does with the Super Bowl broadcast rotation with NBC, CBS, Fox and ESPN/ABC, the NCAA basketball title game rotation with TBS and CBS and the current NHL Stanley Cup Finals rotation with TNT and ESPN/ABC.

22. Who's going to replace Buck & Aikman on Fox Sports ? ?

23. Thank God he won't be doing baseball for FOX anymore. He held those broadcasts hostage for 20 years.

24. Troy Aikman was a great QB. Even underrated. But as an announcer I think he OK, not great. His personality is kind of boring and doesn't bring the excitement Pat and John did. I actually think both Joe and Troy are better off as 2nd or 3rd unit not the first.

25. This didn't solve there problem it solved mine

26. Soooooo happy not to have to listen to Joe Buck on FOX football broadcasts anymore!!!!

27. Hopefully the Manning bro's do it again! Can't stand J. Buck. And hopefully this means they will not be doing TNF.

28. I don't get all the love for aikman….does anyone ever listen to a broadcast to hear what aikman has to say…ESPN is just desperate for anything

29. Monday night football with the Manning bros makes football so much fun even after watching Sunday NFL all day & night. And the celebrities are great fun too!

30. I have not watched the Mannings and have no plans to do so. I much prefer Romo who is a bit more down to earth without the big head.

31. No it isn't funny to draw parallels between Jesus and our heavenly father with "DEAD" John Madden is profane!

32. Aikman deserves Romo money. He’s much better, and honest most of the time. A bit too harsh on the Cowboys, but it’s his old ball club.

33. Nobody turns on football to listen to broadcasters. Unless its myron Cope on radio.

34. You dont need buck! What a joke that espn thinks they need joe buck. Pathetic.

35. Is Myles Australian ??? Haha

36. If Joe Buck and Chris Collinsworth teamed up that would be the first sign of the apocalypse.

37. Best news ever. I no longer will have to suffer with these fools on Fox. Rarely watch MNF anymore unless it’s the Manning brothers!!

38. They should have just hired Jon Gruden to come back. This ensures I’ll be watching the Manning cast full time now.

39. Don't care who the announcers are. I have never chosen to watch or not watch a game based on the announcers.

40. It's never been about the announcers but the matchups and the game like week 14 last year Ravens and Browns I could have called that game??

41. Joe Buck continues his slow facial transformation into Sam Elliott.

42. I just hope the Monday Night games are as good as the Sunday Night Games on NBC or the Game of Week on FOX and CBS. Because the matchups on the Field is more important than who is in the Booth

43. seriously? joe buck and aikman are STILL going to be together? the most mono tone, boring combo ever

44. Thankful for the MUTE option…

45. *insomnia?

46. So Joe buck does besides MNF & SNB on ESPN give Gus Johnson the Fox Job finally he deserves this opportunity

47. JB and Aikman suck. They actively root for specific teams on the broadcast.
