Inside the NFL leaving CBS/Showtime/Paramount+

Recommended Posts

I remember just waiting breathlessly until Thursday nights as a kid to watch Len Dawson and Nic Buonocoti(sp) dissect the games back in the early 80s. That NFL Films footage and the fantastic soundtrack and voiceovers... man it just made the game greater than it was.

Hate to see the show has become orphaned again and that it has gotten worse for the wear.

Yeah since leaving HBO, it has been garbage.

 

HBO is losing ground…I personally can’t find a reason to keep that sub since Game  of Thrones.  They didn’t plan well.  Flat out quit watching Last of Us.  Too boring

Inside the NFL back in the day was the greatest show ever.  Man that was the glory days for HBO.  NFL films footage is an American icon of sports,  damn so great.  I can hear the soundtrack in my head even now, so amazing

I love all the murder mystery mini series they do. There’s another true detective coming too. Succession and Industry are great. Then all the classics like Sopranos or The Wire 

I get it free with AT&T so that helps.

Just for House of Dragons and Succession alone its worth every dime, but I also get it for free

Barry last season starts this week.

Tons of good originals on HBOmax

But can't see Warner/Discovery getting into the NFL game these days. While it is an inexpensive show to put together vs other productions... don't know if they'll feel it's time to bring it back.

Could see Amazon making a play, to supplement TNF. Or maybe Peacock, because they could pair it back up with Collingsworth.

    • yeah. winter backpacking trips were the most miserable and amazing experiences. same with the coldest and snowiest hunting  experiences. i love being in it. makes for incredible memories. the worse it was, the more i ended up loving it. made the greatest memories.  i just want to get out of it afterwards.
    • I forgot about Jackson...definitely elite.  The sad part of your list is that 2 of them were 'there for the taking for the Panthers'.  Rumor has it that Hurney loved Herbert and was vetoed on trying to trade up.  And rumor has it that Frank & McCown wanted Stroud.  I believe both rumors.  
    • I went on a solo elk hunt in the Flat Tops. It was awesomely miserable. LOL It was a late season hunt, I think third season and it was forecasted to snap off cold with highs in the upper thirties and lows in the single digits. fug it, I'm going anyway. They were wrong. The highs were in the low 20s and the lows were in the negative teens. I shivered so hard the first night I thought my teeth were going to break. It was the only time I've ever been legit concerned that I might be in trouble. Crawled out of my sleeping bag and got a fire started and suffered through the night bundled up next to the fire. I slept the next two nights literally wearing every stitch of clothing I'd brought with Nalgenes full of near boiling water in the bottom of my sleeping bag. That was the only way to have non-frozen water in the morning anyway. There was about a foot of snow on the ground and the melt/freeze crust was almost enough to support your weight but you'd go crashing through just as you went or make your step. It was exhausting travel and every step sounded like a rifle shot. Hunting was basically impossible. I never saw an elk in those four days, only saw 5-6 deer. LOL It was brutal but I loved it. Absolutely beautiful country that is never been to before and haven't been back since. I needed that four day complete break from society fighting for my life against the elements. I'm weird like that.
