I forgot to mention a key part of the enjoyment of last weekend's football extravaganzer. During the Fox early game, they had this ridiculous graphic they kept showing that said, "The Voice of Tony Siragusa," with a lounge singer type pose from the man. What made it especially funny, though, was that it looked a lot like Fox's graphical promos for its other programming. So Joe Mulder and I started inventing the plot for a "Love-Matic Grampa" meets "Quantum Leap" style Fox series called "The Voice of Tony Siragusa", where each week the voice of Tony Siragusa would inhabit a different inanimate object in a neverending quest to get home to Tony's body. I think it's ratings gold. Also it would leave the sideline reporting to, well, people who aren't Tony Siragusa. You know, hot chicks and actual reporters--the people who actually fit the job description.

Congratulating myself on writing the first fat joke-free Tony Siragusa-related paragraph written in the last eight years...
