OK, I like watching PTI, and enjoy that show.....

But watching this MNF game is already getting to be brutal. "Brett Favre this. Brett Favre that that. Rodgers needs to do this so the fans will forget about Favre."

You'd think he was the first popular player ever to retire and some new guy had to take his place.

Get over it!!

    I agree pretty much.

    I also hate how some commentators like him beat an issue into the ground (Joe Buck is the worst at that IMO). All they need to do is to state the issue once, then let it go and move on.

    Oh, and in case you haven't heard it for the 3,485,721st time, Tom Brady injured his knee and will be out for the rest of the season...

    Yeah, it was like watching Frank Caliendo do John Madden calling a game except it wasn't funny.

    With PTI they have to move along from one subject to the next but with MNF he can drone on and on........ maybe they need a bell on MNF like they have on PTI to signal him to move on to another topic.

    How many times do you think the NFL pregame shows this Sunday are going to mention it and show the footage? I'd say about 100 times
    minimum. This will surpass the famous Joe Theismann Monday night debacle for the most replayed footage of someone getting injured.

    I like Kornheiser, but I do not much care for football. I saw maybe 10 plays last night between innings. The NFL games have way too many commercials for me.

    If there was a way to silence the announcers but maintain the crowd noise, I'd watch the game that way. I know, there's probably technology that does this and I'm just not aware of it.

    Kornheiser blows on MNF, he should stick to PTI.

    They need to get back to 3rd man in the booth being a football guy, not some writer/comedian/actor or whatever.

    An excellent point. You could argue that complaining about the broadcast crew during an NFL game is a bit like complaining about the cuisine on the Titanic: It's not that your complaint isn't legitimate, just that there are more pressing concerns at stake.

    I'm real close to giving up the NFL because of the commercials. I watched the Lions on Sun., and I just couldn't believe how many interruptions there were. And it feels like it's gotten worse-- much worse-- over the past eight years or so.
