Not too bad.

I've heard much worse.

These are considered their throwback or alternative uniforms, which they are allowed to wear twice each season. These unis are symbolic of the 49ers "glory days" of the 1980s. I wish they would go back to these permanently. The ones they currently wear are horrible.

I like the fact that these guys weren't afraid to disagree with the refs. Most of the time the announcers back the refs up or just gloss over a terrible call. Not Mike & Mike & Mike. If it was a bad call, they'd let you know they thought so.

I only watched the first half, but I thought they were pretty good. The sound was a little muffled but I enjoyed them.

overall, I'd give them a B. Greeny seemed like he was trying to force conversation at times. Maybe it's just from experience, but I could tell that he was a radio man trying to do TV play-by-play. He gave details like player in motion and such that aren't necessary for television.

But for the first time to do an NFL game, I thought they did very well. I actually enjoyed listening to them more than I do to the usual MNF crew!

It is too bad Bill Walton doesn't announce during the NBA off season. Such talent should be used all year long.

Thank you Da! Bill is not only a great announcer but he is so intellectual. A great man indeed!

In my opinion Mike and Mike have a chemistry. Sometimes it
seemed like Ditka would step all over something the other
two were discussing. Ditka just din't fit in it seemed.

What the heck is Ron Franklin doing these days? He's my favorite announcer.
