Does anyone else hate what ESPN has done to Monday Night Football

I've always liked Jaws and Gruden doesn't annoy me at all. I think it's more match-up problems for me. I just don't have much interest in the teams they're putting on MNF these days. Frankly, I watch SNF less and less as well. I think it's mostly my disdain for the NFL that is creating a rift for me.

For the most part, I agree. There are fewer and fewer games each year on SNF that capture my attention.

With that said, I'm not wholly sure that it's NFL's fault. There have been definitely changes to the CBA the past few years that affected perspective months in advance of the season (and my mis-perception in August has been repeated ad nauseam).

NBC has been a trainwreck. Their CEO has been fired (well, as of the end of 2010) and Comcast, who SHOULD have a better handle on viewers needs will take over and hopefully make better decisions, all around.

ALL of that said, there are only 16 nights of Sunday Night Football each and even if I don't watch closely, I'd be remiss if it wasn't on in the room.
