O&A Board Regular Registered: Oct. 00 | Personally I like the guy a lot. He seems to know a lot about football and any added humor to a game is always a bonus. Of course I set myslf up for the "well Dennis Miller doesnt add any humor" response, but you gotta admit, he is funnier than Phil Simms or John Madden. Sports isnt always conducive to humor but I feel he does the best with what is given to him. Sportscasters are usually boring and tell us shit we already know, so a comedian in the booth is a nice breath of fresh air. I know he has already been in the booth for a while so this isnt really topical but I was just interested in your opinions on him. Since this is the Sports forum, I probably shouldve called this thread: "Official Dennis Miller Chat Thread". D'oh! | ||||

O&A Board Veteran Registered: Feb. 01 | Hate him. Al & Dan do a great job, it's a shame they can't find a 3rd announcer to fit in better. I believe in the Faith... that can save me. I believe in the hope and I pray... That someday it may raise me... above these badlands | ||||

O&A Board Regular Registered: Oct. 00 | In his own show on HBO I think he's great, but for MNF he's playing to an entirely different audience. He's just horribly out of place on MNF, and should stick to Dennis Miller Live. The more they stay the same, the more I go insane. | ||||

O&A Board Regular Registered: Apr. 01 | I thought he was AWFUL at first, but I have to say he's been steadily improving from week to week. quote:Here's a guy who's funnier than me, you know, he's got, he's got, he's got some good, you know, he's, he's, he's got some good, some good commentary. quote:Going with the comedian theme, I think Jay Mohr would do a much better job than Miller. He's funnier, and he knows sports. He's been great (in my humble opinion) on the Fox morning show. "Ants in my pants, it was bigger than an elephant... I swear it was this big!" | ||||

Hanger-On Registered: Jan. 70 | I didn't see "loathe" up there, but that's my answer. I absolutely despise him. Two years ago, Rush Limbaugh was the other guy they were looking at to potentially step in. I would have rather had Rush two years ago, and a deaf Rush would still be a better broadcaster, and would DEFINATELY be more interesting. Best sports writer ever | ||||

O&A Board Regular Registered: Oct. 00 | I dunno, if you didn't find, "Bud Selig looks like Harry Potter in volume 83 of the series 'Harry and his magic Prostate'" funny, then you just don't know comedy. ;) | ||||

O&A Board Regular Registered: Oct. 00 | Personally i like the guy. I find him a good change of pace in the booth from Fouts and Michaels. He really has come around too in that he knows what he is watching and talking about. Very funny guy. Fan of the Giants and the Rangers. Hater of the rest of the NFC East and the Devils. | ||||

O&A Board Regular Registered: Oct. 00 | i like his hbo show but i don't think his humour translates to sports too much. not that i've really been watching much lately, what happened to scheduling the good games for mnf? An invasion of armies can be resisted, but not an idea whose time has come. --Victor Hugo regardless of my status, i am a nice person. no really, i am, i swear;) crack hitler belongs to me :) need me? try: [email protected] | ||||

O&A Board Regular Registered: Aug. 01 | Dennis Miller is NOT FUNNY on MNF. He might be able to do a decent stand up act. BUT all of his lines are pre written and forced. He has NO funny off the cuff remarks. It seems that a players name gets called and he goes through a box of index cards for the joke about him. It is just so damned forced. PLUS I consider myself on the good side of the bell curve. I am educated and fairly well read and I hate it that his jokes are meant to make everyone including myself feel stupid. What is the point of a joke .05% of the people get? Fouts actually displays a good wit and has made me laugh with lines that were clearly off the top of his head. This message will be edited by Ken'sPen shortly. | ||||
