Al Michaels is headed to Amazon and TNF

[FAH1223]

His contract with NBC expires in February 2022 once the Super Bowl concludes.

 

[Eye Cue DA COLI GAWD]

Hmmm

 

[ThaRebel]

That means Tirico is taking over on SNF.


Historic moment in broadcasting for Italian-Americans.

 

[El Guapo]

I think it's a good move for both. Al's in his later years and got a Bezos bag to finish up a lengthy career while Amazon got someone who's been a big voice in sports for generations

It's the worst kept secret they are grooming Tirico and Brees to replace Al and Chris.

Question is where does Chris end up

Unless ESPN gets Peyton/Eli full time on MNF, he'd be a good fit for them. Or he could go back to FOX.

Hopefully off TV.

 

[aceboon]

Dude is still pretty sharp on the mic, he's not at the dikk Stockton/Marv Albert stage yet

 

[Bboystyle]

Hopefully off TV.

He aint that bad.

Need reshift that enery to Joe Buck and Troy

He is that bad.

Good move on all parts.
NBC gets to move on to their new crew and ease the backlog of host they have and Amazon gets an experienced voice to kick off their broadcast

Amazon wanted Peyton for TNF as well, but I guess he didn’t want to leave brother Eli with nothing to do so he turned it down. They would have likely gave him a blank check and told him to name his own asking price to do so.

Collinsworth got his family entrenched at NBC. He not going anywhere.

 

[Spliff]

SNF broadcast has been a snooze fest.

If Amazon wants that

 

[Remote]

I’ve been waiting for this jagoff to retire for 15 years.

He sucks.
Good lord I miss John Madden and Pat Summerall
