re: Berman and Tom Jackson to anchor nfl primetime following game

You're absolutely right Boom

"They believe that they're going to win. But more importantly, the team they're playing believes they're going to win."

This is the old ESPN that I miss. No SJW bs ...

Did they play this theme

Yep during highlights. GOAT

That’s the GOAT NFL theme song. That sound used to mean business back in the day...usually signifying highlights of the days best game

Berman is a POS

I watched, and though I dogged on Berman's shtick getting old, this reunion had me wanting to cry..

I was ready for a change to sharp modern guys talking real football, but not the faggy SJW angles & what ESPN has mostly become..

I miss The Sports Reporters, Ley, Mees, SVP, Steiner, Cohn, Mayne, Gammons, Patrick, Scott, Jaws, Etc..

And CNN too, Nick Charles, Fred Hickman, Dan Patrick, Van Earl Wright, Deford, Huber, etc..

Now, I'm stuck with all the talking of every angle except what happens between the lines of any sport...I have to go listen to radio and podcasts to catch what Greg Cosell, Ross Tucker, Dave Dameshek, VegasSportsline, etc..say about the actual games and strategy.

Thank God they gave SVP the late night slot..though I miss he and Rusillo's show daily.

Berman the last 10 years reminded me of an old comic that used to headline Vegas but now only gets booked in places like Tunica or cruise ships. His schtick is old and tired but he won't admit it to himself.

Plus, the older and fatter he got, when he got to the end of a sentence and started to run out of air it sounded like he was grunting one out on the john.
