Did Joe Theismann intentionally snap his leg in half so he could get a job as a broadcaster?

    Probably that and the workman's comp benefits.

    I hope not - anyone who gives fantasy advice of...."...bench Larry Johnson...." needs a smack.

    Last I looked, LJ put up some nice yardage....O-Line is bad, but the touches will come.....

    Back on topic - I just can't get excited about any broadcaster except Kevin Harlan ---- he should have the Monday night gig imo

    Back off topic.

    I did bench LJ in favor of Jamal Lewis running against the pathetic Raiders. image

    Erin Andrews is worth some excitement

    I went to the Iowa/Minnesota game here in minny last year and Erin was walking around the barn with the ESPN HD camera crew. She is quite attractive in person too!image

    I was about 9 years old watching that game live on TV. I've never been the same since, lol.

    He can be a bit overbearing, but I can deal with him. I think Lawrence Taylor snapped his limb, so not self inflicted. Perhaps Lawrence was tired of his mouth at the time.

    My question-has there ever been a worse NFL announcer than Theismann? If so, who? Unitas was worse, but was quickly canned.

    Tony Kornheiser & Dennis Miller have to be up there.
