How can the same people do one so well and the other so, so, bad?
My theory: for the NFL RedZone, they had one singular model to follow, in the form of DirecTV's Red Zone Channel, which had existed for a few years before the NFL got into the act with their version. For their NFL coverage and pregame show, they had to synthesize from a number of other efforts. I'm a fan of the DirecTV version with host Andrew Siciliano, which I think is similarly worthy of praise to what PGage said of the NFL Network version. I do prefer to watch games featuring "my" team, but as with yesterday when they're scheduled for a game in the second Sunday time slot, I really enjoy watching the Red Zone Channel during the early games when there's a lot going on. -- Jim Ellwanger <[email protected]> <http://www.ellwanger.tv> -- TV or Not TV ....
