I actually think he'll be quite good and I'm excited for him. First game Sunday Night.

I'm not sure we will get anything earth shattering from him, but who knows maybe this will be his calling.

My friends and I have already jokingly picked out teams to be "super big fans, totally" for this AAF thing. I'm on the Salt Lake Stallions wagon. They're the best. They're totally gonna win whatever their championship game/trophy is called!
I think Zach Mettenberger is their QB....yikes!

I live in Gainesville, UF fan and grad. Steven Orr Spurrier is coaching the Orlando Apollos, so I’m a huge fan. Huge.

He doesn't seem to have the personality for it but who knows.
The big thing is I never have to see his blank, defeated stare on our sidelines ever again.

Too meh... Wanting to watch this AAF though, sounds interesting and the more football the better.

There are some compelling players and interesting coaches (Spurrier & Stoops, among others). Might be fun. If it stinks, no one is any worse for it.

I mean, I get that Merv buys you some NFL cred, but personality is the name of the game. Think of what Romo brings to the booth. Hell, even a Jim Nance. Merv seems about six light years removed from that. Meh, maybe he'll prove me wrong. If that's what he wants to do, good luck to him.

He's just soooooooo droll and boring. "The measure of a man's intelligence can be seen in the length of his argument."

Mettenberger was a guy a lot of fans wanted drafted a while back and i believe he went to the Titans...at least he played for them for a while. The Bengals guy is Christian Hackenberg. He played earlier today for Memphis. Didn't look too great in the time i was watching it. "The measure of a man's intelligence can be seen in the length of his argument."

He's using the same tone he would when he was doing the tape segment with Dan and Lap on Bengals Weekly. They just called him Romo for anticipating the 2-point play

I'm glad i ran upstairs and missed it so i wouldn't have to clean up any puke. Even if it was tongue-in-cheek... "The measure of a man's intelligence can be seen in the length of his argument."
