Re: CBS could care less about our game
I used to work on W. 51st St. & 6th Ave. in NYC. CBS is on W. 52nd. One day, crossing the street, I saw Mike Ditka, I said, "Hi Mike." He smiled and returned the "Hi". A few months later, I saw Jim Nance, again I said, "Hi Jim." He turned his head and ran off to a limo as if he were so important. psu, this guy is on an ego trip too... Bc

All the CBS teams are bad enough I don't think they have a #1

Re: CBS could care less about our game
I kinda like Iron Eagle. He's made himself into a good announcer. I don't mind this crew.

Re: CBS could care less about our game
Miami-Dade county is the 8th highest population county in the country according to the 2010 census. Broward, which is just to the north and would also be considered primarily the Miami Dolphins' home-crowd, is the 18th. Palm Beach, just north of Broward and still Phins territory, is 28th. The three combine for a 5.5MM population which is comparable to Chicago and larger than Houston. The only markets that are bigger, split with two (or more) franchises.

I dont understand why they changed the times of the AFCN games when they are not showing them anywhere other then their local markets.

Re: CBS could care less about our game
Actually when it comes to the two main networks, the #1 crews pretty much suck, so it's no real insult to not have to listen to them.

Re: CBS could care less about our game
If you look at the TV distribution maps, most of the country will also be stuck with Tebows/Chiefs at 4:00. Not surprised they also drew the A-team announcers.
I think the simple truth is that the country at large is more interested in seeing if Tebow can finish this amazing story and put his team in the playoffs, after taking over for a 1-4 team where no one thought he would succeed. Even though Ravens Bengals will probably be a much better game, with much more on the line - I just don't think people in flyover country really care about the Ravens or the Bengals, or Flacco or Dalton.
I don't think it's a swipe at any teams, or disrespectful, I just think it shows how crazy this Tebowmania has gotten.

Re: CBS could care less about our game
After listening to Wilcotts on SiriusXM NFL radio for years I realized that he isn't the usual talking head. This guy really knows football. I'm glad he's doing our game.
