Korn was just awful, and I'm glad he's gone from MNF. Not too crazy about Gruden, though. I thought MNF would have been great with just Tirico and Jaws. IMO, Tirico is one of the best-ever play-by-play guys. He obviously does his homework on each team for every game, but he only interjects those tidbits when they're relative to what's going on on the field.
Can't stand Dierdorf or McCarver.
I think Al Michaels is pretty darned good, though he does put his foot in his mouth at time. I've got a soft spot for Madden.
EXAMPLE-------years back Al Noga (DE of the Vikings) sacked the quarterback. John Madden says-----" When Noga gets in his stance, his eyes get wide,his determination is so great, there isn't an offensive lineman who can stop him"
Really?
I laughed because if Madden had done his homeworj he would have realized Al Noga had lost his starting position that year and was seeing very little playing time.

plus he has a man crush on Brett Farve. Even if Farve is not in the game he announcing he mentions him.
And you know what? Brian Anderson, who is the television voice of the Milwaukee Brewers, is starting to get boring as well as Joe Buck. I like Bob Uecker a whole lot better. Not only is he a funny guy, but he also shares His enthusiasm so how can you not like Bob Uecker if people say that he is the greatest sports announcer? There's nothing wrong with him but he's just boring and Mike Tirico is also getting boring on Monday Night Football. Mike Patrick did Sunday Night Football games for years first with Roy Firestone, then with Joe Theismann for years along with Paul Maguire. Although Dennis Miller is okay, Roy Firestone is simply not a very good sports announcer. I can't stand it when Joe Buck and Troy Aikman are calling more and more Packer games. John Sterling, Yankees broadcaster, is really announcing when he makes trademarks, especially home run calls. Although I never listen to him, I think Dan Shulman is boring on World Series games and I think Brent Musburger should call them instead.
The other thing to is that Ron Franklin said something inappropriate about Holly Rowe calling her baby and even called Jeannine Edwards an a-word hole and was fired by ESPN two years ago. I don't like his comments. Do you remember that?
