This dude needs to retire. He's a shell of his former self and never was really that good anyway. Whenever he calls a Rams game, it's always a joke. He's very hard to listen to and has an annoying voice too! lol
NFL: Please stop forcing this dude down our throats. He sucks. Give a younger more energetic dude or dude-ette a chance!
Al Michaels will return to Thursday Night Football in 2026
Al Michaels will call his final game of the season on Saturday night, but it won’t be his last appearance on Amazon Prime Video.
Michaels said in November that he wants to remain the play-by-play voice of Thursday Night Football and the streamer confirmed to Richard Deitsch of Sports Business Journal that Michaels will return for the 2026 season.
“First of all, I feel great,” Michaels said. “Everyone at Amazon has been fantastic and I love working with this group. I’ve been looking at this year one year at a time and as long as I feel I’m at the top of my game, I’d like to continue.”
Michaels has been calling games for Prime Video since they got the rights to the Thursday night package in 2022. Michaels and Kirk Herbstreit will call the Packers-Bears game in Chicago on Saturday.
#HelmetHornsMatter
“Well, the color is good, I like the metallic blue,” Youngblood recently said while laughing, via NFL Journal. “The horn is terrible. It looks like a ‘C.’ When I first saw it on the logo I honestly thought it was a Charger logo.
“Now when I see it on the helmet, it just isn’t a ram horn. There is no distinct curl like a mature ram horn. I don’t know how the Rams could get that wrong. That is your symbol and it has been for what? Seventy years or more? Longer than I have been alive? It’s just not us, it’s not the Rams.”---Mr. Ram Jack Youngblood
