With Mike Tirico taking over the NBC SNF slot....

Al will be in a bidding way with Amazon and ESPN. They desperately want to fix MNF and they will be in the SB rotation.

Right, that's why I mentioned Michaels joining Aikman at ESPN/ABC. Al still wants to call Super Bowls, so if MNF wants him bad enough I can see him going there. If Amazon blows him away financially though, he might go there.....

The MNF production crew went with the package to NBC. Does ESPN try to get some of them back.

Report: If ESPN can't land Joe Buck, it likely will turn its attention to Al Michaels

Sixteen years ago, the great Al Michaels vowed to never work for a four-letter network.

According to the linked NY Post story he's interested in doing both college and NFL.

ESPN will need a #2 crew, as it will have 25 games per year in the new contract.

I think that its better to do college or pro. Doing both means doing a half job on each. Too much info for one person to digest.
