Default Opinions of ESPN MNF?

So it's about 7 minutes left in the 2nd quarter and I'm really not impressed with the ESPN crew.

The play by play guy Mike Tirico needs to get some emotion. The Raiders are running a kickoff back to the Vikings 40 yr line and he's talking like the guy is getting ready for a putt...it was just far too "hoohum yeah he's running the ball back..."

Theismann is Theismann, he's got good knowledge of the game and has improved over the years. He's at least listenable...especially without McGuire yelling at him all the time. He does stumble around sometimes.

Tony K is crazy obnoxious. He seems to be trying too hard...and what's he there for? I guess to be a prick? He is doing a good job of replacing Mcguire. And this Tony Tony Tony thing they do where people ask him dumb questions is old already.

It could be tough watching them all season, I really can't see their ratings matching ABCs numbers unless things improve in a hurry
