NBC's hiring of Noah Eagle may be one of the better hires of the decade.

Already one of the top play-by-players, now seamlessly part of the hosting roles on the Super Bowl. Next week, he calls the NBA All-Star Game.

Mike Greenberg is the Main Event later today. He was tremendous.

Before he became a broadcaster, he wanted to be on Broadway.

Just terrible on Washington Post Sports.

You want to make some changes? Sure.

The lack of imagination shows a failure of leadership.
