The Amazing Game of Football

NBC put on an amazing show this week, the game lasted just under 3 hours - a technically sound game - Broncos vs. Raiders - with perfect commentary, amazing camera angles and awesome visual effects. Really near-perfect execution.
ESPN on the other hand, muddied through below average commentary (gushing over the Cardinals, flipping opinions, and ... the master of stating the obvious Joe Theisman). But they sure had the better game.
The setup was perfect - I love the Bears, I love Leinhart and love Monday night so I can chat with my dad for the entire 4th quarter as I catch up to live on Tivo. I can stomach poor play-by-play and analysis, shameless celebrity cameos and less than stellar camera work (did he fumble? was his knee down? was the punt inside the 5 yard line?). But who could predict that stunning game. The Bears never scored and offensive touchdown, had 6 turnovers, and won by a point in the final 3 minutes. Simply amazing.
Week 6 presentation: NBC
Week 6 game: ESPN
Final vote: tie

Yup, I think it's really weak. But that game? Oh man ... that was GOOD. JG
