I absolutely agree! I really miss Frank, Dandy Don and even Howard. That was real football and good commentary, not
a bunch of fluff and crap just to satisfy the pc police.
I suspect it's more about some genius Ivy League programming consultant who promised that the NFL would get higher ratings if they could just do something to attract women viewers. What a low opinion they seem to have of the intelligence of the fairer sex.
Yeah, it's teetering on the unwatchable at this point. The rank hypocrisy of the treatment of Rush Limbaugh and Hank Williams certainly does not help.
Although Cosell did take a big of hit from the PC police back in ‘83 when he famously remarked (about Redskins’ wide receiver Alvin Garrett) “that little monkey gets loose, doesn’t he?”
