I watched when they had Jalen Hurts on...a complete debacle because as much as I like Hurts as a QB, he's incredibly boring as a person (feature, not bug) and they teams kept having 3 and outs so they were going to commercial every 2 minutes.

Then they had Pres Obama on and that was better, but those two are still insufferable. I know they're getting lots of money, but I can't believe it makes sense for ESPN to divert part of its audience away from the main broadcast when they're paying Aikman and Buck obscene amounts of money for the regular broadcast.

Great players are not automatically skilled announcers. I won't watch them again.
