The only complaint I have had with CBS sec day game coverage for a couple of years now is they need to get better cameras. Their HD cameras are the worst in the business right now it seems.
it's on par with the Cox cameras. Also, their intros aren't in the same class as ESPN's.

Gary Danielson is a top notch college analysis and Vern is more than adequate doing play by play.
Its something of a lame tradition for several hundred "CBS sucks" threads to make their way to this site every year.

The game was over at that point. Who cares?

i dont get the lsu hate towards manning. all because he didnt come here.
Curley Hallman was the HC. I think Manning made the right decision because we all know LSU sure didn't.

enjoyed Peyton asking Gary what it was like to be a career backup
He really did that?
Is there a place to see the rebroadcast?

quote:There is never any "best ever" with CBS and Verne and Gary. Massive commercial blocks eat up the enjoyment - according to my own unscientific survey, CBS sells far more commercial time for these games than ESPN or ABC. Which means there are big blocks of "down-time" with nothing going on the field, both in the stadium and the living room whenever CBS broadcasts a game. I truly hope that if the SEC negotiates another television contract, that CBS is not the network that gets it.
I usually focus on the game and don't care who the announcers are, yesterday was so bad it was impossible to ignore.

Many factual errors, 2005 game chat was hysterically incorrect, and then that BJ they gave Peyton for the whole 3rd quarter was ridiculous. They just chatted over the game like 2 old maids at a quilting bee, pay after play was run with no comment about the game.
The 8th team announcers we usually get saddled with for the Arky game were better than these 2.
Could not have said it any better. The gossip the entire time was only trumped by the egregious errors Verne made and the insults flying out of Danielson. They were awful.

I never listen to football announcers and only tune in to WWL, but I can't stand CBS and the lack of replays. Also watching the TV and listening to the radio makes me think I'm going to miss some of the game. The teams are lined up and ready and I'm still watching a damn commercial.

The HD Isn't as good

The relevance to the game is important to lsu fans / players/ coaches - all that CBS ( and other media) cares about is that folks don't change the channel.
The game was, from their view point, over and they felt that the non-SEC viewers would feel so as well - so they talked non-stop with Peyton ( about mostly irrelevant to the game stuff)

....CBS broadcasts are practically unwatchable b/c of the never-ending commercial breaks ... The "2:30" game kickoff was actually closer to 2:40 ( whereas the other 2:30 game starts were already 3:00 minutes into the games ( I channel surfed and watched them a bit ). Halftime came at approx 4:45 PM. Thats almost a 2.5 hour 1st half !! I'm thinking - good grief could this be a 4.5 hour game? this game wont be over 'til after 7:00 at this rate ! The prior 11:00 AM Moo State / USC game had to be moved to another channel for 4th quarter b/c it was STILL going on at 2:30 ! Can't stand CBS ...

Listening to an affable player compliment LSU, and then scoring on a 99 yard drive while he was in the booth is the worst thing you've ever had to endure during a college football game?

Manning is going to make a much better announcer than Aikman when he decided to hang it up.
Posted on 10/16/11 at 12:22 pm to andouille
dude they make shite up. Even last week they were spouting at bullshite and not facts.

When Manning was in the booth I felt like I had visitors in my living room. It was if they were conducting an interview with him while, oh by the way, a football game was being played. I simply turned the volume off and just watched the game.
