Although don't fault Buck for aligning himself with the broadcast school of "this is a visual medium", especially when a big play is happening. Arguably the biggest play of the season last year, listen to Buck's play by play: http://ll.video.nfl.com/films/s2009/nflcom/w13/091206_phl_wk13_cmp_hixon_punt_ret_td_700k.mp4 We can always listen to the radio calls after the fact... Haha, Good one.

Secondly, I don't care about TO or Ocho-crapo as a duo or the Eagles thinking that their P90x workouts will take them to the superbowl this year. As for Travis Beckum and the "Madden Video Game Rankings", what a bunch of "ochocinco." Beckum has the speed and agility to give the Giants a competitive advantage this year. While scheme is important for a team, one also needs to diversity to capitalize on opportunities. Madden rankings are consistently wrong and have the accuracy of a monkey throwing fecal matter at a blind target. Just look at what they said about A.P. his rookie year. How about we talk about the Madden Curse of the player selected for the cover? I wish they would put Joe Buck on the cover and take us all out of our misery. That guy sucks, fact.
