I can’t stand Aikman who is the ultimate cowboy homer and always critical of the 49ers
I enjoyed Romo a lot

Funny, I really like Aikman.  Romo also.  Although he definitely was a little Cowboycentric yesterday.

As for Aikman the old contract model had the season long TV schedule: AFC to CBS and NFC to Fox. All that changed this season. Romo talks too much just like Madden who was the instigator of “I’m here and I have to talk between every play.”

I preferred Dizzy Dean’s style. You watched the game and every now and then you listened to Ole Diz’ stories.

Completely agree about the talking too much.  I will listen to some broadcast teams - Nance/Romo, Buck/ Aikman and Michaels/Collingsworth come to mind.  College, I like Danielson and the guy he works with.  Herbstreet as well.  Most of the rest, I watch with the sound off.  They talk way too much.  And the overhype gets to be off putting.  

Never heard Old Diz.  Read the stories.  You must not have taught English!

BC, the networks have decided to use two different sensors in live broadcast. It drives me nuts. Normal live broadcasting is still mostly high def in 16x9 with a deep depth of field. The steady cam today had a Super 35 sensor that mirrors the depth of field of theatre motion picture. They operate at wide open apertures that render backgrounds severely out of focus. The director would intercut from a “normal” television camera with HD sensor to a theatrical image. NBC has used a handheld camera with S35 sensor generally following a golfer from green to next tee. The effect is jarring.

How about the female sideline reporter who called Nick Bosa “Joey” twice!

Is that why it looks almost 3d like when they do shots after TD’s?
