contention december discussed teams wants
Nobody wants to see teams out of contention showcased in December and January. I'm sure this is something that will be discussed again this off-season.
team numbers
There are a number of teams that would become vastly improved with Drew Bledsoe.
team taken miami-dolphins
The Miami Dolphins have to be taken seriously. Here's a team that seems to be jelling.
sports team hate
I think the Cowboys are one of only two teams in all of sports that engender love and hate to that extreme. The other is the Yankees. You love the Yankees or you hate the Yankees.
team games people
If there are dominant teams, people enjoy discussing whether that's good or bad for the game, and if there aren't any dominant teams, then people enjoy discussing that.
team cowboy san-francisco
It's funny, but when there are dominant teams, there are a number of people who rail about the fact that they're always seeing the Dallas Cowboys or the San Francisco 49ers or the Green Bay either in the playoffs or in the Super Bowl.

But we're not supposed to talk anything besides football.
nbc series
I did the 1972 Sapporo Games, and I was also the Reds announcer and was folded into the NBC coverage for the 1972 World Series. I also did the 1979 World Series for ABC.
extremely football monday night people prime special sports time work worked
Monday Night Football started in 1970, and when it started, it was something extremely special because sports had not been aired in prime time. So, it was a novelty, and a lot of people thought it wouldn't work, and, of course, it worked spectacularly well.
