I agree that Bryant Gumbel lacked any emotion in his call of the game, but I did think Collinsworth did pretty alright, at least he did not sound like a bullfrog in the second half. Sad part is how ESPN basically demoted Mike Patrick and he would be by far the better choice for play-by-play guy than Gumbel would. Don't get me wrong, I like Bryant Gumbel's sports journalism pedigree and absolutely love Real Sports, but he is not a good play-by-play guy, yet. Maybe he could improve by the Raider's game, knock on wood.
