Shitty agent??
Not really. The market simply got reset quickly within the last 5-10 years and Nantz hasn’t been in a position to truly take advantage yet.
Gruden turned that job into something that you pay top dollar for. He left and there was a void and ESPN has been offering the fattest checks possible to try to fill that void and it’s led to everyone’s pay getting inflated as a result
I mentioned this earlier but the game changes when you have a guy like Gruden who they love and wanted to keep, but at the time they weren’t worried about CBS, NBC, or Fox taking him away, they were competing with the Tennessee Volunteers and NFL teams every year that are offering atleast 6-7 mil a year. So they threw 10 mil at him to try to make it insane for him to leave until ultimately an NFL team matched that offer and he was ready to go back

Nantz is a piece of gay shite.

Broadcasting football games makes CBS millions and millions of dollars, so it makes sense that the face of the NFL on CBS would require a big salary and periodic raises. Couple Nantz being the face of the NFL on CBS with his other works like being the face of CBS’s coverage of the Master’s and the NCAA Tournament, and it really starts to make sense why he deserves a lot of money.

If Nantz will promise to stop those morbid eulogies every damn week, I'll make up the paycheck difference between him and Romo.

Nantz was disgustingly woke during the US Open this year. I swear if Cameron Champ had won, Nantz would have taken a money shot on the 18th green.

This is the most surprising thing about the whole thing to me. Mike Tirico gets $10 mil a year? NBC's one night of football with all their stockpiled broadcast talent is the stupidest thing ever.
Al lasted longer than people thought, plus I always just assumed they were also waiting out some of the me too issues with his odd history with women.

Yo Albert. CBS doesn't broadcast the US Open. NBC does.

Who was the main guy doing the USOpen tennis when CBS had it?????

Just goes to show how versatile he is..... I would much rather listen to Nantz-Romo compared to Buck and Aikman.... gee I wonder who gets the call of the thrilling Dallas at Minn game this weekend.......

Some Fox team. I doubt that it will be Buck & Aikman.

I would hope they would put their top team at the top game which is GB vs. Indy... but all they care about is ratings so Buck and Troy will be in Minny and more than 3/4ths of the country will be forced to watch Dallas vs. Minn. Dallas has a huge fan base. They also have a non fan base that will watch just to see them lose.

I will get Green Bay & Indy. Won't be watching much of Miami & Denver.
Posted on 11/20/20 at 2:26 pm to COTiger
How do you know you are getting GB vs. Indy??????
