Awful Announcing
The NFL Today panelist JJ Watt appeared live on location from the Pittsburgh Steelers-Houston Texans game where he was set to be inducted into Houston's Ring of Honor.
J.J. Watt made his NFL on CBS debut on Sunday, joining the cast of The NFL Today. If Week 1 is any indication, he'll likely love his new job.
"I am still convinced that somehow I am going to get a bill for a $15,000 watch."
"It gave me a little bit of my fill during the season of being able to watch football with a bunch of football guys."
"Now, leaving the game, I realize how much I love it and how much I can’t stand to not be around it."
Ryan tweeted "P.S. - this is not a retirement post" with a wink.
"There’s certain ways of doing certain things and commitments that people make that when things are not done properly, it needs to be pointed out. Regardless of how this plays, it was a travesty in terms of how this unfolded."
"Regardless of how this thing played out, what happened in Indianapolis is a travesty."
"Man, you don’t even make our meetings, how the hell are you gonna make their meetings?"
"Words do matter. Especially coming from highly visible people."
"I should have gotten up out of my seat and knocked the speaker off."
"It was instrumental in helping the NFL overtake Major League Baseball as America’s No. 1 sport."
Cross was the first Black man to work as a full-time analyst on national television.
"Do we need this many hosts?"
"I have too much respect for the coaching profession to talk about a job that isn't open."
A terrific live TV moment.
We shouldn't have expected anything else.
Cross was part of the iconic The NFL Today cast, along with Brent Musburger, Phyllis George and Jimmy “The Greek” Snyder.
