A great show, with the highlights of the NFL play, the voice overs by Chris Berman and Tom Jackson, and that fantastic score made especially for the program! It is really missed these days.
In its heyday, Berman would be very funny with his words and tone. One could see that he enjoyed the sport and was hip to everything, as he will sometimes nickname players. I was going to cite examples but my brain is stumped!!! Berman does the Monday Night Football halftime so at least we get a snippet of what he was so great at doing, if not for an entire hour.
Robin Roberts had some time with the show and she did well. I was never a Pete Axthelm fan. There were at least two others who also did some air time for the show.
NFL Network can't even compare to this highlight show. Those guys try to be funny.....end up being more sarcastic.
