I’ve never heard of Ben Maller before but the folks at Deadspin sniffed out this story about the NFL network showing 8 games next year. I’ve always liked the NFL Network, they are a great alternative to ESPN. Sure, it’s like watching state run television but at least they’ve never been called the “Al-Jazeera for spoiled athletes”. Plus, they actually released a commercial that made fun of Drew Rosenhaus.
Too bad they couldn’t have accomplished this earlier so we didn’t have to sit through another year of the worst sports announcers in the history of mankind. I believe it was Jean-Paul Satre who wrote “Hell is listening to Theisman, McGuire, and Patrick announce an NFL game.”
