Wow - this is good news. An announcer shouldn't whine the details of the game. He just didn't fit.

Sadly, they'll just get someone else. No one seems to be very good at picking guys for these gigs, so I'm not holding my breath.

It's funny, but his brother seems so level headed and unassuming. He may harbor some of his sentiments, but never lets it get in the way of his on air reporting. Tell me some one, what the greats of sports reporting politics are, there's a lesson in there some where.

Oh, you're just attacking him because he's black.

I would rejoice even more if the NFL and Charter cable could work out their differences and allow me to have access to NFLN.

But, to steal from Mr. Tony: Gumbel was a "gots ta go situation."

Despite his politics and sneering attitude, I've generally liked Gumbel's work. REAL SPORTS, for example, is superb. He was also excellent as a studio analyst in his pre-TODAY show days. But he's just awful as a game announcer.

I only watch the only football game that matters (Go Navy!) so this news affects me how?
