It won't be much longer before FOX Sports kicks off its 17th season as one of the broadcast partners of the NFL. Although their Super Bowl season doesn't kick off until September 12th, there are three new additions to the NFL on FOX team for 2010. One of them is a former Super Bowl MVP, another used to coach the Seattle Seahawks & Atlanta Falcons, and the last was a fixture on NFL Network's "Total Access" during the season with host Rich Eisen.

The former Super Bowl MVP is Kurt Warner, who was a two-time NFL MVP and who quarterbacked the St. Louis Rams to their only Super Bowl title in 1999 over the Tennessee Titans in Super Bowl XXXIV. Two years ago, Warner guided the Arizona Cardinals to Super Bowl XLIII, only to lose to the Pittsburgh Steelers. He officially retired after last season and many believe he'll soon be inducted in Canton, OH at the Pro Football Hall of Fame when his time comes 5 years from now.

The former head coach is Jim Mora, Jr., who coached the Atlanta Falcons from 2004-06 and the Seattle Seahawks last season, but was fired in favor of ex-USC football coach Pete Carroll. Also added to the "FOX NFL Sunday" crew is former NFL V.P. of Officiating Mike Pereira, who joins the network in a newly-created role as "Rules Analyst", headquartered inside FOX Sports' Los Angeles studio.

Mora will become the third analyst on the network's #3 team with Dick Stockton, Charles Davis and sideline reporter Laura Okmin. They'll be in Pittsburgh September 12th as Mora's former team, the Falcons face the Steelers. As for Warner, he'll be assigned to work selected games with either Chris Myers or Chris Rose, starting with Kurt's former Arizona team hosting the Super Bowl Champion New Orleans Saints in Glendale, AZ October 10th.

As for the rest of the crews, have your pencil & scorecards ready:

Joe Buck, Troy Aikman & Pam Oliver (FOX's #1 Team for 9 Years)
Kenny Albert, Daryl Johnston & Tony Siragusa
Dick Stockton, Charles Davis, Jim Mora, Jr. & Laura Okmin
Thom Brennaman, Brian Billick & Charissa Thompson
Sam Rosen, Tim Ryan & Chris Myers
Ron Pitts, John Lynch & Nischelle Turner
Chris Myers (Or Chris Rose) & Kurt Warner
