The Monday Night Football booth is getting smaller

Aipac you're the big shell out couple things on the table Bruins lashed out against the Rangers you'd discouraged with what you saw. And Jeremy -- When sanity continues out there in New York this time north of the border opened up at -- Dustin Pedroia. At 335 -- baseball game and -- more. Of the Bruins stuff with Jack Edwards at 435. Through one more -- on the table here in this well to me is. Very disappointing. ESPN issued a press release today. I have lime rock Ron Jaworski. Signs a five year extension for new expanded multi platform analyst for all we all of its. -- and I said to myself she's got a five year extension on a multi platform. -- the -- one problem. The platform does not include. Monday Night Football they're kicking the coral three. Cutting it down to two it'll be Jon Gruden and Mike to Ricoh and I think this is huge mistake.

You have to get rid of this justice split second quick. And I don't know if you plan out where it's gonna put a whole thing out Eagles play the getting is a dead air just so we can hear victory goes dead it was easier as -- that's that's the fun part.

You'll see him here a year ago he sees it he knows he's got checked into -- what I wanna let it go there's a signal right there. A Mike a little early July when that -- to make it through lights at an appropriate inappropriate words won't want to apologize and -- but then I. I don't know her and for. 78240. You know.

That's what I love and that's all I'm tired of the answer that with a ten foot and I hope that they're using that word that that one night has nothing to do with what's -- respect -- and I can't even think that would be I don't know. A lot of people -- honor while they apparently. Are all sorts of an apparent apparently like him because there's signing him to a five years that I just think that was tremendous chemistry and I think. They may have fallen -- Jon Gruden and what's not to fall in love with Jon Gruden I think -- You're going to get a much different Jon Gruden when you have a -- and team. And it's Mike to Rico was the play by play guy and not the -- little football guy Nextel. I thought of the greatest thing about the book was to Rico knew what to jump in and jump out he's very good that it. -- had two guys who knew the game capable guys and the -- guys player coach. And the x.s and -- and they would disagree with each other and they would get into little little bit. I think when you take that away. I think this is gonna hurt gruden I think people are gonna come out of this next year it's enough -- on the off because gruden has the tendency. To go on about this guy and that guy in this guy and that guy in the flowery and the zone challenging of -- but that because it's funny role.

I just love the way this guy. Tom Green handles and flip flop like that play action pass.

And you're gonna get too much of that and a Toronto it will become a syrupy broadcast on May be maybe he'll he'll change his role now. That it's a two man Bruton and not a -- member of the -- to reboot before. -- and in my Patrick did for many years. Two of those guys. And bring it down to it. And I think this is what they missed and it just kept trying to tweak -- football on the run and Dennis Miller in an opponent Tony Kornheiser. Then Eric Dickerson for awhile Lisa Guerrero for a lot of destroy them change all the personalities. Familiar face -- packaged should be careful to quiet those there why don't fare airline but. It's just it you don't you pause for just seconds but do you really comes down to the games. If you have good games. Are you really gotta have. Be drawn to monitor football I think -- going away promoted -- football because abroad I think the broadcast does add to have -- are not gonna watch we don't have -- progress now it's not catalyst that. Broadcast group it's it's the NFL so we're we're already -- We -- to watch anything the NFL throws at us. As bad a game as they occasionally throw a lot muggy night it was not a lot of great money that is exactly. Com. We still watch and there's no question about it I just don't think that to me. Leaving gruden alone there with two Rico is is the right is the right mix and I think they're they're missing out that at three man team work I thought.

Worked did you think at work or did you hear people complaining about. I'm guessing aren't there are lots of components sure Tony Kornheiser was in the wrong role he's right roll right now.

At 530 at night he's not a 5 o'clock he's not in the right role. Doing football because he's not a football guys are fictional guy.

530 god not any thirty that's very good about thirty not a priority and only the only criticism. You call of -- is that sometimes. You couldn't tell the difference difference between jaws a group that at times have you could tell the difference sometimes you don't win win when jaws. Had a mistake when he dropped that dropped the F bomb a lot of people initially thought it was group. Because their voices at times on some nitpicking. Intel atom that's in terms of the broadcast your right. Nobody really said. This is horrible I don't like this I don't like the chemistry I don't like these guys. They're they're they're cure ratings if ESP and even goes with that. Probably. He's probably was higher than than any other broadcast team that he has been had a --

Interest in quote reaction to a by Jon Gruden. Tell me what you think this. While I understand there are times when players have to put your faith in the coaches and other decision makers. We're trying to position a team for success. And that's what I'm doing here. I have faith in the people I'm working for at ESPN. Jaws has taught me so much about broadcasting and nobody works -- he also watches as much film as any war. On this working with him on Monday nights when I'm glad we're still on the same ESP and team. Does that sound like a strong endorsement for years eons managerial move him you better get this right. -- Our our -- there are times when players have to put your faith in the coaches and other decision makers. Or try to position -- team for success. And that's what I'm doing so he's putting his faith he's not sit there endorsing the move. Each is putting his fate -- guy maybe they know what talent. Maybe I'm I'm sure -- hear about maybe they know what they don't. John's going to be -- replaced on the NFL countdown -- match and felt alive themselves tick off Mike and Mike in the morning I'm good minutes. Draft coverage. Super ball programming but not Monday night. -- I think it's strange move -- I really think it's a straight through my work was working when you have something that works that well -- apparently not Jaworski. Backing off doing Monday night and ESPN decisions certainly looks that we in the way it's been position. I don't get I thought the three of work great together. I think they're taking a real gamble here taking jobs out of the picture I'm not saying to gruden is more valuable. And I think they'd probably view it that way but they may be viewing it. A little too much that way. In the gruden as the stocks are trying to let them write down exactly okay but you don't -- I like the football guy playing off of them but I did not like jaws. As much as I like -- I didn't like it was Kornheiser you don't -- cannot tell you -- beyond that I but I tell you watch jaws was too nice guy and that in that -- Kornheiser would say something that just is not. Football small and why should he's a columnist that's when he does he's TV talking head and columnist doesn't sit there break on the x.s and most. And jaws wouldn't. Taken to task on it as he didn't wanna make Kornheiser look like an -- where I went through -- he's quick to which he's willing to do that. And challenge and as gruden isn't going to don't know that because he gets no respect right. And they both know what -- exactly I don't see how to Rico does that I don't see up to Rico also I -- To Rico in his role there are certainly the three mineral. He's got a very tough job right now. Because gruden. Can be one of those guys that just goes off and sometimes gets so flowery. That nobody's going to be there to challenge to mr. Rick I'm gonna challenge of magic. And a Brady is you know it was that it is over 50% this -- we've got Canada right I don't think he's gonna challenge.

Well maybe maybe they've got another move coming. Notice it's a demented I -- they say that right now maybe there's another move Lisa Guerrero back now I'm talking about in -- they bring that they're trying to work somebody into the into the mix. They've got people there amid a fit got to the got to make a move in and take jobs somewhere else. And have more on on the shows. They can they have candidates in house will be great. -- that -- so why would you announced that now and why would you why would you announce it this way but first raised more than that it may be right maybe that's what they wanna do they've got. Somebody out -- that they believe is ready to that may be a little bit more contemporary. Younger -- more -- recent from the get rid of may be. Maybe they're looking at that and say we gotta get a guide itself it's the -- around game handle it in a more recently just been erratic in his employ -- group maybe it. Think.

I you know maybe that's what that the -- why would you do it now why would you make the announcement all at the same time. Because I think most people are gonna look at this movement's a much of this general -- right there -- good right now it's relatively you have before you got a good thing -- all why -- changed --
