Joe Buck I can see as that is kind of a personal preference thing, but Troy Aikman, to me, is a pretty solid color guy.

TA is good because he tries to explain what's happening or what needs to happen.
i like trent dilfer when he comes on the radio. he watches alot of film and can explain what he's watched.

We're destined to disagree on everything football-related. Aikman said after watching the replay that Favre could've run for 10-15 yards on the INT Sunday. Favre is slower than molasses and there were two dudes directly in front of him 6-7 yards away.

In general I don't think Aikman is a terrible announcer, I just think he's dumb as bricks. Growing up a redneck and taking 14 concussions in his career probably didn't help.

yeah, but running for - 1 yard is better than what he did. all of those tv personalities are great if you bet football, because most of them don't have a clue. i had to laugh when they all built up dallas as the "team to beat" and most of them did. the three best teams clearly were the saints, colts and vikings and alot of those so-called experts were picking against these teams because they coasted at the end. "the colts did not go for history and undefeated season...blah,blah blah". "the saints have lost 3 in a row"...oooohhh. no kidding, the teams clinched early and rested. funny when the playoffs started they were still the three best teams.

i could listen to trent all day. really knows what he's talking about, and has a voice that doesn't grate on the ears. and he doesn't come across as a pompous ass either.

Buck IMO is like a sports fan who paid enough money at a charity auction to get the job and wonder if Aikman is hitting his head against the walls during breaks as he at times appears to be suffering from a concussion.

Buck is a combo of Jerry Doggett and Ranch Riprock!
