John Evans has been dreadful for the last few years. Not quite sure why he is being used.

Darren Morgan there as well, and maybe Gerraint Jones, who has done it in the past as well.

Super Bowl XLIV on CBS

Commentary from Jim Nantz and Phil Simms, with sideline reports from Solomon Wilcots and Steve Tasker.

No news on the world feed yet, but if it's Dick Stockton again....then we're sorry.

At least CBS have decided to stretch out for pitchside reporters on these last couple of games.

Any chance the world feed could be the NFL Network pairing of Bob Papa and Matt Millen?

Kevin Cadle with Jeff Reinebold and Gerry Anderson in the sky sports studio for the big game, Nick Halling and Cecil Martin providing alternate commentary on the red button.

CBS actually "banned" that type of reporting 3 years ago after the CBS exec said it added nothing to the broadcast. So the only times you'll see them are for the AFC Championship Game and the Super Bowl.

Pretty good chance it's Papa/Millen I think. Papa did last year's game with Sterling Sharpe.

No need to be sorry if BBC do what they did last year and take the US domestic commentary!

Just a post to say that Bill McLaren has died at the age of 86, the sad passing of a fine commentator
A tribute to which will be played on most BBC regions before the Ireland V Italy game on 6th February.

BBC Wales will also be going with their own tribute this Sunday.

Good game to start the new season. Great to have Super League back and good stuff again from the team - best team on Sky for me (though maybe I'm a bit biased!)

Very true, I was there last night and said to my Dad at the time that there's no way they'd be allowed to play football on that pitch.

I caught a quick glimpse of Bill Arthur walking around the side of the pitch from the studio to the touchline just before KO.
