Watched partially tonights Packer game on TMJ 4.  Nice job. Some random thoughts:

-Isn't that the CBS theme they're using or is it the old NBC football theme?

-Jessie Garcia on the side line does a credible job. Statements are to the point and useful info. Quite a nice change from the usual fluff reports.

-Gotta love those close ups. Favre was wise to not chew tobacco during the game. Would have had a oral cavity view otherwise.

-Can't they time the commercials so that they don't come back 2 plays into the next series? It seems the game kept interrupting the commercials.

-Thinking of taking lip reading lessons.  I picked up some but sure would like to fill in the rest.

-Nice pre-game with the "tour" of the new facilities.

All in all they've done a reasonable job so far. Now lets take up a collection and buy them some HD cameras.

Yeah, that is the CBS football theme - also in use are the CBS football graphics (wisely edited with a "G" where the CBS eye should be.)

I assume this is because WFRV-TV in Green Bay is the ringleader in the Packers Television Network, and with them being a CBS affiliate, it is probably why Packers football has that nice CBS feeling...

Not only is WFRV a CBS affiliate, it is owned and operated by CBS.
The preseason games are produced by CBS network sports.

Makes you wonder what they talked about during that two hour rain delay tonight...

I couldn't hear it, but could see it where I was.

Food Glorious food!

Kevin and  Bill kept going on and on about that double brat.  I never thought of ordering that last Saturday.  

Oh Yeah, and the Lightning,  Nice camera work guys.
