the collective team of announcers (play by play + color) avoid long in-broadcast conversations about things tangential to the game, it's not a big deal. Ryan Harris' approach to broadcasting on the ND Football Radio Network would need to be different than his approach on NBC telecasts, but I'm positive he understands the difference. He's a really smart guy.

I don't pay much attention to the broadcast while I'm watching, but sometimes I'll listen when doing something else and it's nice to be able to hear what is happening when seeing it isn't immediately possible. I acknowledge that TV play-by-play is different than radio and am not advocating that style on tv, but just stay on the game and don't engage in long discussions of things unrelated to the action on the field.

I really enjoyed Tirico and Dungy. Brees was also good.
