NFL on FOX sucks

[CptCrunch]

I'm watching the Bengals play the Lions and FOX doesn't show which down it is and how many yards it is to the first down. No idea why they dont, but its fracking annoying. Every other major network does, along with the play clock. I'm drinking beer, and I need to concentrate on not spilling it. Which is much more important for me than paying attention to which down it is and how many yards Benson has to run to get a new first down.

That and your blonde bimbo's 'on the field that was talking about Ochocinco and some other Lions player that was talking smack' story was dumb. Stop wasting air time and get a real reporter!

I agree. I am also stick of those stupid football robot animations.

CBS is much better.

WTF... the robot was just jumping rope...

 

[Exterous]

They have to try and make a Lions game interesting somehow

 

[ric1287]

just a glitch...they show all of those things

 

[hclarkjr]

get NFL redzone, you will never watch either of these networks again

 

[MovingTarget]

FOX

There's your problem.

There's your problem.

Original.

When you play the Lions you get the bottom of the barrel crew...the 'in training' crew...both announcers and technical staff (producers, directors, etc)

I wish they would kill that stupid robot.

Fox shows the down and distance on both the field and the scoreboard. I like CBS, but hate Simms' work.

 

[YetioDoom]

Don't they superimpose it on the field along with the first down line?

 

[Crono]

Don't they superimpose it on the field along with the first down line?

They do. 2nd and 15 right now, but I'm watching the Falcons vs Eagles game.

It's not on screen the whole time, though, which is slightly annoying.

This is very true. The difference between the big name commentators and the "training" crew is like night and day. They just don't do a good job of keeping games interesting.

I hate that robot, it's so retarded. I hate all the animations they have for it. They have it do the most retarded things ever. It is never funny or entertaining. I hate it.

 

[marincounty]

Will someone please shut up Joe Buck? He is the worst announcer ever.

 

[TheVrolok]

WTF, and now there's a bench clearing fight and they don't show any of it? WTF Fox?

 

[Reckoner]

QFT. Fox fucking sucks.

Getting every commercial in possible is more important than actually covering the game

CBS used to have the cleanest presentation but now with their two score bars it's like watching a game in a jail cell.

 

[BillGates]

Another vote for banning that stupid robot.

 

[RyanPaulShaffer]

Are you trying to say that a dancing robot doesn't scream FOOTBALL to you?!

They were showing a montage of out of context video clips from the first half.

*thumbs up*

I love this .. its the only way to watch games now. Being in SE PA, all I see are Eagles, Ravens and Steelers games. I love seeing teams that are never televised just to see a competitive game.

WTF, and now there's a bench clearing fight and they don't show any of it? WTF Fox?

Yeah WTF was that shit. I wanted to see the fight.

 

[Jadow]

I hate their stupid sound effects and football robot graphics from 1995.
