Let's get a poll up with a few nominations for replacements!

FRPLG · 06-24-2013, 10:11 AM

I'd rework the whole thing. I don't much care for Doc. Nice guy but something about his work seems bleh to me. I'd really like to see it be someone who isn't just spewing slick niceties the whole time.

I'd like to see Tim Brant of ABC 7 News be the new commentator and replace old Sonny with someone young who recently played in the NFL/Redskins. I was thinking Randle El, but he still has some work to do.

Time for Portis to take over.

Not serious, but it would be entertaining...when we could actually decipher his words.

I know your joking, but I feel that Portis needs to spend way more time (like 4-5 years in the studio) before he can go out on the radio. He's still a ways to go to even pass Randle El. I was thinking Ken Harvey or...LaVar...

I know I might be the bad guy here but Larry Michael isn't at all bad. He's not worse than Herzog was. I can't say I understand anyone's dislike of his work. I see no reason to dump him.

I know Herzog quite well. Consider him a friend. Don't know Michael as well. When I have met him, I haven't been the biggest fan. That said, when it comes to on air work...I totally agree

I mean everyone dislikes him because he is not Herzog. That's about it. I know he sort of engineered himself into that job and got Frank canned but that isn't like common knowledge so I know it isn't that.

I think Larry is OK during "down" points in the game. Like if he's calling an average play he does just fine. Its on the "big plays" where I've been underwhelmed by him. For the most part, he's been calling some pretty bad football; so its hard to really hold much against him... but I don't know. He's OK.

Truth be told, and Frank would never admit this, but Herzog wanted out. He didn't like the way it was done and he enjoyed hanging out with Sonny (not as much Sam). But he wasn't really enjoying it anymore and his disinterest was pretty obvious to those (myself included) who worked with him during the week

He's not bad at all. Some people will just always hate the guy because he replaced Herzog.

I don't get all the Larry Hate myself. Guy is a solid play by play guy....if not GOOD!
Love his High energy calls on a TD or outstanding play...

For one, everyone in the booth can't have the same personality. I like Michael but, with the Sonny and Sam is was kinda weak. I like Doc, bring him in the booth. Bring a female in the mix too.

JoeRedskin · 06-24-2013, 03:47 PM

I am not a fan of Michael's work outside the booth - his cable shows are pretty painful "suck-up" shows. In the booth, on game day, I don't have any problem with his work. He will never be brutally critical, but then neither was Herzog.

Doc as a replacement would work for me b/c he really is unafraid to pull his punches while at the same time being an unabashed Skin's fan.

Probably time for Sonny to go also. With his drinking buddy gone, I expect he will move on in the next year or two.
