Anyone not tired of debating Dennis Miller yet?

[img]http://www.ChiefsPlanet.com/ubb/frown.gif[/img] The dude is just not funny in that venue. His jokes are so hit & miss when they aren't scripted and rehearsed. I'd be fine if he threw out a zinger once a series or so but every play with a joke or two is too much, IMHO. I'm actually one that welcomed the change early and was looking forward to it. I'm not so certain any longer....

<ul>[*]His jokes take way to long to build, which means they run into the next play and they don't talk about the current play.[*]It appears he is there for humor value only, not to talk much about football.[*]His football opinions scream opinion and don't seemed to be based in fact.[/list]
Have not heard anything that impressive and don't care to discuss it much more.

I can't say I've watched him a whole lot, but it's never that funny when you're expecting it. He tries too hard. Once in a while it's funny, but rarely.

yes. to all the below responses.

honestly, I thought the bit about the guy who fills up the honor bar breaking in on him when he was naked like a DEA agent breaking up a meth lab was pretty funny. Other than that, there was really nothing there.

Bad part was it was a boring game in the 1st half and they really didnt do much to spice it up.

I get about enough of Miller in his silly phone company adds. Listening to him on MNF has been painful. On the bright site, Fouts seems to be coming out of his shell though.

I like the Fouts/Michaels combo. They could do without Miller. Dickerson isnt very good either.
