After Week 1 of the 2011 NFL season, I MUST say something about Michael Strahan, Shannon Sharpe and WHY networks feel the need to put PEOPLE WITH SPEECH IMPEDIMENTS on NATIONAL TV! Also, if you're gonna sing the National Anthem...JUST SING THE SONG! Don't go makin' a pop song out of it...shoot...lol...

And you bring up Dan Marino & Phil Simms - well, being absent of a lisp doesn't make them problem-free. Marino isn't exactly polished w/ his "Ima Italian" street accent- & there have been times when I've thought that most of his brains must be in that right arm of his. Phil Simms' bumpkin self is a classless tool - & possibly a racist one at that. I mean, who doesn't get along w/ the professional, even-tempered Greg Gumbel? And don't forget he tried to beat up Desmond Howard in public.

It's not only the black guys - Lou Holtz & Mike Mayock, just to name 2, have their speech problems too. Mayock is worshiped as some kind of god of football analysis despite having the same lisp as Strahan - why can't the brothers get the same benefit of the doubt?
And who was that prominent white newscaster (non-sports) who sounded like he had had a stroke? No, I'm not making this up.
