Bryant Gumbel is out at NFL Network

[dodge]

he was baddd!!!
the NFL should ban him for life on calling any game!!!!

Hopefully they will have the guys who do the Notre Dame games do it when the ND season is over. I think Tom Hammond did the NFL Net games a couple of times last year and it was great. I think it would be awesome!!!

I don't know why they hired him in the 1st place. He always seemed aloof.

BTW, I'm the one known as "HelenaKyle" at the DBS Forums. Some of you may know me.

To the site

Look around, stay awhile

I can take Collinsworth,

Gumbel was the worst. Glad to see the change.

Best news I've heard in a long time. I nominate Dick Enberg to replace Gumbel.

Great news. Bryant Gumbel is a much better scripted TV host/interviewer than a spontaneous play x play guy.

I will be interested to see who his successor is. We can all only hope that Neon Deion Sanders doesn't take his spot. Does anyone know who they are considering for a replacement?

Gumbel put me to sleep many a time. Better than a sleeping pill.

The person that would be GREAT would be Marv Albert. He does play by play for Westwood One and I think he is very underrated as a football announcer. He should be on a bigger stage than just radio. I'm not a huge fan of Collinsworth, but I don't think he's that bad. Definitely not as bad as Bryant. I'm not sure why they thought he would be good in the first place.
