Dolphins on Primetime?

[DoLpHiNz34]

Has anybody heard about whether or not ESPN will be running the show Primetime this year? I heard from a friend that it's done due to the new broadcasting schedule with ESPN doing Monday nights etc

I read somewhere that the NFL PRIMETIME show will move to Monday Nights at 6 PM before Countdown starts, also Chris Berman and Tom Jackson will not be doint it, the crew from Countdown will.

In 2006, the show will begin to appear at the Monday Night Football site live as the game will move to ESPN from ABC. Stuart Scott will move to host of NFL Primetime which precedes Monday Night Coutdown and Chris Berman will move from NFL Primetime to Monday Night Coutdown and will be joined by returning analysts Tom Jackson and Michael Irvin along with new analyst from Sunday NFL Countdown Steve Young

So a bit of a turnaround on the ESPN shows, I read that Stuart Scott will be joined by Ron Jaworksi and Mike Ditka on Primetime at the 6PM show...and then COuntdown will include the changes of Berman and Young to replace Scott and Jaworski.

Thanks bro. I knew it was impossible for them to completely do away with the show.

Got that right! I`d have loved to seen Berman and Ditka (along with TJ) all doing Primetime together.

I agree with that article.

Primetime used to be great. Now its just a forum for Berman to use his tired old catchphrases.

All things must pass, and its time for Primetime to die a silent death.

You're nuts. I NEED Primetime. Sure, it's not as great as it once was but I love watching a show solely focused on all of the weeks match-ups with the best highlights from each game. The season isn't going to feel right as it is with these changes...I can't imagine what it'd be like if it were completely gone.

I can't get past how annoying Berman is.

I hear ya. IMO they could broadcast the show with no sound and I'd watch it every week.
