Summerall

[guana]

After Berman showed highlights of the Miami-Pittsburgh game (which included the monsoon), he sent it back to Summerall, and said something like: "Are you guys dry over there Pat??" I guess there was no pun intended with that statement!

And what did Pat see when he said Jerry Porter's left foot was out of bounds on the play that was reviewed? Say what Pat?

And what about the 3rd quarter not ending on a defensive penalty?

I haven't listened to much of the game, but from what I've heard ESPN needs Patrick back in a hurry.

Agreed - ASAP. The games seem to sound much more exciting with Patrick as well. Summerall sounds half-asleep...or in the bag.

I am huge fan of Pat Summerall

And I have always been. However, I noticed a definite slippage starting in 1997, and it got worse in 2000. His memory isn't horrible, but when you have to think on the fly in the booth, it's easier to get things mixed up. He is obviously not the same. I do notice the sense of humor coming back now that he's been in the booth a couple months, but it isn't enough to outweigh the cons of his performance.

I cannot wait for the most underrated Play by Play man in the business, Mike Patrick.

I, also was a huge fan a Summerall. He truly needs to retire. He is horrible.
