ESPN/ABC Monday Night’s Game, Cincy- Baltimore battle this Weekend; Sunday has 14 matches
By David J. Halberstam 12/28/2022
NATIONAL FOOTBALL LEAGUE
NFL Week # 17
CBS has the doubleheader – Fox the single series
Would love to have Uncle Al do one of the two post-season matches that NBC owns. Frankly, I thought he would call one post-season game plus a couple in the regular season. I hope the one post-season broadcast eventuates. Most will tell you, no one in history is better on TV football than he is. Michaels withstood the test of 36 prime time seasons on ABC and NBC. His very voice triggers thoughts of the NFL and he’s as sharp as a tack at 78. Tirico is getting better and certainly tolerable but he’s no Michaels.
I’ll say it again. James Lofton should be pushed up the ladder at CBS. The man tells it like it is.
