I watched no football last weekend.
I spent the weekend on the road, heading up to the DC urrea or my cousin's wedding reception. With my kids in tow, I spent much of the time listening to top 40 radio, but I did sneak in a good chunk of the second half of the Florida-LSU game on the radio, the only football I got to consume that weekend. And while I'll always choose television if available, I was reminded how thorough a picture a good announce team can paint of the action on the field. With succinct, information-rich descriptions, a talented play-by-play announcer can give a clear visual of the action you're not seeing. For that reason, not simply because it was the only football I experienced, football on radio gets my high notes of the week.
