Vacation.  Bad news Tirico will likely replace him next year.

Whoever replaces him will get a heavy dose of criticism and in the public eye will never be good enough simply because they aren't him.   Kinda like Drew Carey replacing Bob Barker as Price Is Right host.

I'm bummed by all of that. Al Michaels is the voice of football. Better Tirico I guess than Joe Buck. It's bad enough that I have to watch every Monday Night game on Mute. I can't even remember the last time I watched a World Series game that wasn't muted thanks to Buckin MacCarver. Hate those guys together.

The worst is Dick Vitale, I can tolerate anyone but him.

Oh yeah. I forgot about that guy. He's probably the most annoying.

Damn. It will be sad to see Al Michaels retire, but I guess it had to happen some day.

I still remember the early days of NFL being broadcast here in Australia in the 1980s, and the Monday Night Games hosted by Michaels, Frank Gifford and Dan Dierdorf. I still regard them as one of the best trio of football commentators ever. The Michaels and Cris Collinsworth pairing is just as good. Those are some big shoes to fill...

I don't like Collinsworth very much.

It's kind of funny to me. I rarely pay much attention to the announcers unless they are talking about something I'm interested in. I really don't get all the hate.
