Theisman doesn't bug me as badly as Esiason or Collinsworth. Can't remember
enough about Dierdorf's commentating to have strong enough feelings about
him.
Summerall is still doing play-by-play, but pretty much just Dallas home
games. He did an away game for them at some point and I remember his
talking about the shopping his wife had done a day or two before, and how
full the hotel room was.
I like Madden, I wish he'd talk about 15% less sometimes.
