    I don't know that ESPN would do any better or worse...it really would all depend on who the fuck they had in the booth...

    I'd love for them to go out and get some guys we've never fucking heard of before...or try and snag similarities to the early team...

    Hmmmm...maybe get Favre for the Meredith roll...

    I don't know...

        Was watching the Monday Night Game when Cosell called one of the Redskins a "little monkey", want to say Joe Washington, but might not have been. Smallish, fast offensive player.
        Are you sure that was the comment? Seems like I remember Cosell making a racist comment and saying, "Look at that mookie run"! With Cosell, you never knew what the guy would say. I could be wrong about that statement, that's been yrs. ago! I'm certainly old enough to remember some of the old commentators, Gowdy I always liked. Summeral for sure with Madden were good. Meredith & Gifford with Cosell. Fuck I'm Old!

        I would agree with the comments about Theisman! Get him out of there! Also, Dan Isadork, the stupidest guy ever let in the booth! Hate that guy!

        I think it might be a good thing to move MNF, it's gotten stale these past few years.

            No, it was definitely "monkey"....

            Such an overblown situation, totally unecessary....

            If you get a chance, the HBO special on Cosell comes on every once in a while, check it out....

            They spend a lot of time of that situation....

            They interviewed his grandson, who stated that when he was a little boy several times Cosell would call him a monkey....

            They also showed a college football clip of a WHITE running back on a handoff when Cosell called him a monkey....

            Moreover, Cosell was quite often called a N***** Lover because of his backing of Muhammad Ali....

            So the inference of any racial undertones when he called Alvin Garrett a monkey was just ridiculous....
