[Husker] Green Bay or Pittsburg

[Tommy Thompson]

I think Joe Buck is the finest broadcaster in all of sports...with the 
possible exception of Bob Costas.  Of course, I live near St Louis, so I'm 
probably biased towards them both.

Troy Aikman is normally very good, but I thought he had a bad night for the 
Super Bowl.  He made several mistakes (I can't think of them right now, but 
it seems like he called the wrong player on several occasions).  He also 
seemed to dote on both QBs...no surprise there, though, given his 
background.  That said, he's still better than anyone doing college games.

I'd love to have them both doing games for College Football next year.

I don't mind Aikman as a color guy but Joe Buck rubs me the wrong way. And, 
I'm not entirely sure he doesn't have the hots for Troy. He seems to dote on 
his every word and gaze fondly at him rather creepily!

Given the complaints commonly heard about booth personnel for college games, 
I wonder what Listers think about Fox's "A team", Joe and Troy.

Fox doesn't cover college games of course, but if the lockout damages at 
least part of next season (and I bet a dollar it will), Joe and Troy may 
have some extra time on the weekends. If the stars aligned in some weird 
way, would you (a) endorse or (b) dread this combo calling a Husker game? 
(it's just an idle question, I don't consider it even a remote possibility).

As a neutral observer who didn't have a dog in the fight last night, I
thought the officiating was great except for the phantom face mask call
against Green Bay. Having said that, it didn't hurt my feelings to see Big
Ben humbled. I'm in the camp that thinks he should be serving time in jail
for sexual assult instead of playing QB.

Mike if I may ask, when did you think the officials influenced the game last
night? Was there one or two specific plays or are you just dissatisfied in
general with the officiating? I'm a Steelers fan and with the exception of a
phantom face mask that actually benefitted the Steelers I'm not sure the
game wasn't officiated just fine?

The play at the end to Wallace was a good no call. There were some ticky
tack pass interference calls that probably could have been made throughout
the game but I think that happens in every game.

> Always root for the team with the most Huskers on it, and it looks like
that's Green Bay with one!

I always root for a game where the officials don't influence the final
score.

This year they did, IMHO.
