1992-1993 "NFL on CBS" Theme Music

[robg5555]

not bad, but i prefer the 2001-2002 theme

[DTownBBall07]

I forgot they had this theme before CBS started covering the NFL again in 1998. One of the best sports themes ever, no doubt.

[espben360]

first 30 seconds are the best. its gets you sicked like something ver big is about to happen. awsome

[JHollowayNetwork]

Can you upload the 2001-2002 version of the "NFL on CBS" theme?

[kyankees07]

This is incredible.

[Hobgoblin1985]

I wish CBS would use this theme again!!

[AdrianHoliday]

i do like this one

[ultraback29]

I know fans of the Dallas Cowboys like this song cuz that's when Jerry Jones' teams were at their best.

Trust me, I respect what the Cowboys accomplished.

But I believe other teams made the mission of beating them more difficult than it really was.

Against a small defensive front 7, your offensive line has to explode against that.

Plus, not being a threat out of the backfield, Emmitt Smith's contributions were easily containable.

[thesportsman48]

This is simply amazing! Some of the best intro ever! Beautifful memories!

[thesportsman48]

This is an amazing theme... best ever!!

[WhiteGirlsAsianPLZ]

Unfortunately now you can only hear this on the westwood one radio broadcast of the NFL games but this will always be my favorite theme. I miss the days of Gumbel and Bradshaw, Summerall & Madden. It's sad Joe Buck is allowed to be a broadcaster.

[bayou432]

@WhiteGirlsAsianPLZ This theme is still used on westwood one radio? I thought they switched over to the new theme that CBS brought in for 2003 during the same season.

[agbook2007]

This is an iconic theme. Too bad it's no longer used.

[PCCphoenix]

@agbook2007 This is the BEST CBS Sports theme ever--FAR better than the version they have now.

[agbook2007]

I'd certainly like to hear it used for the Super Bowl. I remember watching the Saints on Sunday mornings/afternoons on CBS. This is back in the day of shoulda, coulda, woulda.... now it's didda. ;)

[PCCphoenix]

The Saints will make history if they win, just like the Buccaneers did seven years ago when they won Super Bowl XXXVII.

[PhatFarm60]

Saints are much more like the 99' Rams than the 02' Bucs

[PCCphoenix]

Maybe so...I was talking about the historical significance, not their playing style.

[PhatFarm60]

Well the 99' Rams and 02' Bucs both have the same distinction of winning their first Super Bowl. The 09' Saints will join this club next Sunday, hopefully

[1985OldSkool]

@PhatFarm60 They did. They beat the Colts in February of 2010.

[PhatFarm60]

@1985OldSkool lol.. captain obvious to the rescue, 10 months after the fact

[SuperBowlExpert]

@PhatFarm60 The Rams didn't win their first Super Bowl appearance; they lost to Pittsburgh 31-19 in Super Bowl XIV following the 1979 season.

[vegetaav]

Oh man, memories of growing up and football. Awesome.

[carnal85]

Best NFL theme ever 0:00 - 0:50

[TMC1982Part2]

The best part (the theme itself is officially called "Super Bowl", composed by Frankie Vincini) of the theme is the 0:36-0:42 mark. I gave that portion its own lyrics ("The N-F-L...i-sss-on the network C-B-S!").

[agbook2007]

@TMC1982Part2 That would make a lot of sense. I think I've heard them use those exact words before, if not overlay to the music. Anyhow, this would be great to hear this Super Bowl Sunday.

[highwater03]

Chills........................­.

[Freezer818]

They still use this theme for the CBS/Westwood One radio games. Good stuff.

[SB20Champions]

this gets me so pumped!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[madmaxninja08]

That's cause your a cock sucking mtv faggot son of a whore.

[SB20Champions]

and how do you know that may i ask you?

[madmaxninja08]

Generally those like inferior theme songs or music such as Posthmus Zone tend to be gay.

Only real normal like the original NFL on CBS theme song that was around Posthumus Zone.

[aldfjak]

those that accuse others of being gay are usually the real gay ones. lol

[stanhumphriesfan]

Best Intro ever they need to get rid of the new one and put this back

[jo28227]

I agree 100%, they always have to tamper with something that works and ruin it.

[DCGorman53]

the audio is plain lousy. This sounds like crap. Can you download a better sounding one audio wise. the music is grat, but the audio sucks.

[JZ2001JC]

Didn't they use this on CBS when they brought the NFL back in 1998? I know early 90s was CBS=NFC, NBC=AFC. Then mid-90s it went FOX=NFC, NBC=AFC. Then 1998-present it went FOX=NFC, CBS=AFC.

[thedude19766]

yes they did when CBS got the right to the AFC

[TMC1982Part2]

CBS used a remixed version of this theme when they got the NFL rights back in 1998. This was the last theme that they used prior to FOX outbidding them for the NFC package in 1994.

[devils950003]

Football time!

[Segasaturn95]

The recording is rough, but its still a great song.

[JPPT1974]

Wonder why they can't use this again as I miss it!

[iamiamiamsuperman]

Jesus, was this recorded on a 1981 cassette?

[pyschodad1]

LMAO

[AdrianHoliday]

taped over some late 70s disco

[devils950003]

Awesome theme. I actually like the current themes for Fox and CBS, but it's hard to top this one.

[DEP717]

OH YES. This RULED!

[Herooftimex]

i agree with hellomynameishun. thou i hate everything about FOX. i do like its football theme song. tip-of-the-hat to the composers of that song.

[gobears14]

FOX's theme is OK, I guess. It kicks the current CBS theme's ass, but NOT this one.

[aldfjak]

how is FOX's theme any good? its been the same for a decade. they are cheap and dont want to spend some money on a good composer like CBS has done

[madmaxninja08]

You clearly are a gay faggot and a son of a whore. This is proven since you like the newer nfl on cbs theme. So you need to take your dad's dick out of your mother gayboy, since it is fact you are gay.

[LosFace55]

Fox theme songs are not all that great. With the exception of the nba. The MLB, NHL, and NFL are all not that good to me. This song from CBS I really missed alot. NBC and CBS have always had good theme songs. For college sports on CBS, the NCAA basketball and football are awesome. Especially the football one. I also remember when MLB was on CBS in the early 90's. That them song was awesome. NBA on NBC reminds me of the Jordan era.

[iamiamiamsuperman]

I like CBS current theme, but this is so much better.

[hellomynameisshun]

fox theme owns this...

[gobears14]

You wish it did. FOX football sucks out loud! Fuck Joe Buck!

[vfgjhj]

John Madden and Al Michaels are by far the best. Joe Buck and Troy Aikmen make me want to shoot myself.

[hellomynameisshun]

I didn't say Fox had better announcers, i agree with you guys on that, but as far as the song goes, the fox theme song blows this out the water, this tries to hard to be "autumn-thunder" esque...

[gobears14]

No, the FOX theme does NOT blow this theme out of the water. The 1992 CBS intro is the best theme ever made! Period. End of story.

[YoungTrizz88]

nothin will beat the nba on nbc theme tho

[gobears14]

Yea, good point there. But, this is the best FOOTBALL theme ever composed.

[m3dvol1]

I hella miss this cbs theme. It sounds more like football than the current theme.

[gobears14]

Damn right.

[thephi87]

THIS was awesome

[JPPT1974]

Love this but love the Rise to Glory theme song!

[RobertLee86]

Do you have an updated version of this theme?

The one they used during the early days of CBS' current NFL run.

And if by chance, do you have the complete version of the NBA on NBC theme?

I want to hear it!

[AdrianHoliday]

I like this one, its more light hearted than the current one which they try to copy FOX and have a more hard/serious theme

[Jeff051176]

I get chills listening to this.

[SQ1Fan]

Aww man it cuts off my favorite part! Hope you're able to upload the full theme.

[jsinger121]

CBS needs to go back to this theme asap.

[milhaus007]

This theme is awesome. The current one sucks !

[Jeff051176]

Amen!

[FlingNdirt]

this is so much better the one they got now!

[madmaxninja]

The current NFL on CBS theme is gay. The old one is the best.

Best football themes are the NFL ON FOX and the current NFL ON NBC by John Williams.

[BUSean]

This theme is better than CBS's current theme. If it were updated again (take out the Phil Collins-y drums) that'd be sweet.

FOX's theme is still the best football theme and second best sports introductory music behind the immortal "Roundball Rock" (NBA on NBC).

[madmaxninja]

Even the current NFL ON NBC theme is way superior to it. John Williams knows how to make theme songs.

[HuskerFanatic]

Have to agree. Roundball Rock is a CLEAR #1...what's amazing is Roundball Rock was composed by John Tesh...yes THAT John Tesh.

[thndrct218]

The current theme blows balls... they need to bring this one back

[gobears14]

Amen, brother.

[gobears14]

Best. Theme. EVER!

[Mrsuga]

I remember this theme after 93. I remember it like late 90's early 00's

[bkahler419]

wasn't this still the theme for the first few years of CBS's second stint?

[gobears14]

Yes, it was.

[bayou432]

The '98 theme was actually slightly slower than this, and was more jazzy than this one and had little if any guitar involved.

[eclipspyd99]

wow..this theme reminds me of when my Bucs were still wearing those ugly orange jerseys and when their logo looked like Captain Morgan! it's like the theme from Jurrasic Park!

[jaboo82681]

This was the best CBS theme ever

[TimmyTickle]

I like the current theme better.

[madmaxninja]

You are a gay faggot. The current NFL on CBS theme is lame and gay made for gay pussie MTV faggots like you.

[TimmyTickle]

I am not a "gay MTV faggot", I just like the current NFL on CBS music better than this one. But I also like the old "pots and pans" music they used in the late 80s....was that made for faggots?

[madmaxninja]

If you like the current NFL on CBS theme than the old one, then you are gay since you have no taste.

The only good themes are the old NFL on CBS, the current NFL on FOX, and the NFL on NBC.

[TimmyTickle]

I like the current FOX theme and always have. And are you talking about the current NBC one? (the John Williams one, not the Faith Hill/Pink one). Because I like that as well. Do I have enough taste to not be gay?

[sonicraider1987]

It seems cut off

I would LOVE to hear the FULL theme.

[Cff87910]

I heard the full theme somewhere else. It just repeats from the beginning right when it's cut off.

[TMC1982Part2]

I have the full version of the theme (about 25 seconds longer) in my mail's inbox. There must of been a loading error (where things aborted too soon) with the Colorful Movie Editor program. I put this together in a library, so I didn't have much time to review it.

[sonicraider1987]

If you still have it in your inbox, can you send it to me or at least try again to upload it so I can listen to it?

[supermariofj]

hey could u let me upload it?

[publicposter]

cbs, should have kept the theme.

[Cff87910]

Most definitely. By far the best theme.
