2. Could someone in the New England area please Please PLEASE wait at the airport and kill make mute Phil Simms before he can broadcast again? If killing is too extreme, I'd settle for removal of his vocal cords. By the fourth quarter the play-by-play guy (Gumbel) has to fight to get a word in edgewise as Simms rambles on and on and on.
Update: Hmmm, Tiger brings up a good point. In today's world, hyperbole isn't always acceptable. So for the record, I don't advocate the actual murder of anyone, even someone as annoying as Phil Simms (or Chris Collinsworth for that matter). It was a rant, ok? Anti-Nike: Don't do it.

After the safety, coming back from commercial, we are treated with a wide-angle shot from the top of the stadium.
Not a problem in & of itself, it's just that this is the vantage point from which we view the free kick.
Then, about 2 seconds into the next play, we finally get back to the standard view for plays.
Great.
Then I notice that the extraneous info displays are gone. Clean screen. No score, no down/to go info, nothing.
ZAP! Now it's there.
ZAP! It's gone.
ZAP! It's there again.
Later, Gumbel says something about them also being broadcast on radio, and I started to think how much it must suck for people to be in their cars and having to listen to these idiots.
Gumbel: ball snapped. run. 3 yards.
Simms: yadda, yadda, yadda.
Then, these two acknowledge that they are so into the game that they didn't notice it had stopped snowing!
The WORST thing of all, is that these two IDIOTS are going to be calling the SUPER BOWL!
