I Will Not Be Watching The Superbowl Today...

I can't stand listening to Chris Collingsworth and he gonna be in the broadcast booth.

He thinks he God's gift to football. Knows everything and doesn't shut up talking up how great he is.

He's a blowhard!!!!

That's how I have to watch hockey games on ESPN, where most of their broadcasters are godawful.

I'll be there tonight for the half-time show. Not sure how much of the actual game I'll watch. Never understood the appeal of football.

Like the OP, he has strong opinions about announcers. Today I think he is going to record the game and just watch the end. We're gonna watch the pregame show though.

With a little bit of help from the graphics, football is self explanatory.

...and we haven't owned a television in decades, so I guess I won't be watching, either.
