Buck would blow Rodgers right on the 50yd line if they'd let him. I don't think Aikman is that bad.

It aint the six minutes. Its what happens in those six minutes.

Aikman isn't that bad at blowing? I don't doubt you're right.

He is just like Phil Simms. Neither of those dopes understand why teams go for it on 4th and short. They always want to see a punt.

Aikman is a concussed pussy with dinner plate hands.

Incidentally, Concussed Pussy was an early 80s punk band based out of Maybrook. JORR can confirm.

It wasn't that bad. I guess if you attend Billy Joel concerts and don't like domesticated dogs or cats this may be a valid complaint. Fortunately, there aren't many people like this.

I noticed it last year. When the weather gets cold, the networks tell them they don't have to wear suits. I think NBC started it with Al and Chris and the other ones picked up on it. We have 2 dome games next week (Dallas and Atlanta), so they'll be back in suits. But the guys in KC and New England will be wearing cool clothes.

Are you comparing a crew paid directly by the Bears for a preseason game that is produced by the Bears to a announcing crew paid by Fox?

-- This story has been updated with Troy Aikman's response to the petition.

Troy Aikman is certainly a popular guy in Cowboys country, but apparently he and Fox broadcast partner Joe Buck aren't as well loved out in Green Bay.

As of noon Wednesday, more than 16,000 people have signed a Change.org petition seeking to ban the Aikman-Buck duo from calling Packers games from the booth.

The petition, started Monday by Andrew Dorff of Brookfield, Wis., is titled "Get Troy Aikman and Joe Buck banned from announcing Green Bay Packer's [sic] games"

"This is a petition to get Joe Buck and Troy Aikman banned from announcing/commentating on the Green Bay Packers," according to the petition's page.

"On behalf of the Green Bay Packers fans across the world, we would like action taken to prohibit them from giving their constant negative input about our team. We are sick of the biased announcing always coming from them."

On Thursday morning, Aikman broached the topic in an interview with The Musers on The Ticket (96.7 FM/1030 AM), saying "there's a long line they've got to get in to try to keep us from calling games."

He noted that the Packers have tried this before, as well as Seattle fans a few years back.

"I don't know if there's Cowboys fan petitions, but I get it from Cowboys fans too, saying that I'm against their team," Aikman said.

In taking the criticism, Aikman said he relies on advice he heard from another man who spent quite a bit of time in the NFL booth.

"I remember what Pat Summerall years ago told me back when I was still playing," Aikman said. "People didn't have social media, they would write fan mail. And he said, 'Hey as long as I'm getting fan mail -- hate mail I guess you could say -- from both sides, then I feel like I'm doing my job. But I think there's some truth in that.'"

Many of the petition's signees claim that the announcing duo are "too negative." Other signees show off their failure to grasp basic grammar by calling them "bias" when the proper adjective is "biased."

Aikman said he's a bit confused by that suggestion.

"It is pretty remarkable, though, especially for Packers fans," he told The Ticket. "We've had their games in recent weeks and they've played great, we've talked about how great they've been playing and how great Aaron Rodgers has been. So it's a little bit confusing, but it is what it is."

"I could not care less about that. I know Joe, he does get a little bit bothered by it. He's a little sensitive when he hears that people don't want us to broadcast their games."

There is no requirement for action to be taken based on Change.org petitions, especially not for a private company like Fox. But it has become a popular venue for airing grievances online and seeking out others who agree with you.

"Last I've heard, we will be there on Sunday, and we'll be calling the game and we'll try to do the best job we can," Aikman said.

Sam Rosen looks like a Mike Meyers character.

Packer fans are like Cub fans in that they are so insulated from reality that even a moment not spent in praise is considered betrayal. We have Cub fans here who actually think the team is not treated well nationally. Both fan bases are also noted for their alcohol consumption but I am not linking the two at this time.

I think it shows a lack of self awareness for Aikman to not recognize a Cowboy bias. I would be biased as well if an organization had put $100 million into my pocket.

The most disturbing part of their broadcasting is having to see Buck, with his hair plugs, meticulously manicured and dyed five o'clock shadow and forehead on which drive in movies could be shown

I don't see Aikman as a Cowboys homer. I think he plays it down the middle pretty good. Almost vanilla & predictable really. As for Buck...I'm just not a fan of his in general, so it always seems like he is "against" my teams. For the World Series both Cubs fans & Indian fans were complaining about him and his bias. Go figure.

I would say those views are pretty much the result of fans being fans. Dolphin's skewed views target Cubs and Packer fans but Bears fans are every bit their match.

8/10 on the "sly" part of that, well done!

otherwise declaring joe buck to be DBOTW = basically calling water "wet" (w/bonus points if your name happens to be denzel)

Aikman is too far from the playing days.


The main complaint about Buck is that he overloves superstars right?

I feel like he blows both sides equally

He wanted to have Javier Baez's baby while simultaneously giving Corey Kluber a Schaumburg Slurpee
