No way I can watch a whole year of her on MNF. She is the worst. At some point I think we have to start wondering what kind of bad info she has on the heads at ESPN to keep getting jobs. Nobody likes her and she keeps getting the best gigs.
NFL: Beth Mowins on MNF
- Thread starter Knownothing
- Start date
I can't think of anyone I enjoy on MNF to begin with. They've really gone downhill and after football Th-Sun night their schtick is just overkill.
Typically I'd watch MNF to relax and it's hard to with all the hype machines yelling.
Give me Sunday night on NBC and I'm good.

It was bad in the few minutes I watched, but who did the second game? It was worse. I tuned into it for a few minutes and it was mostly silence and when I did hear someone talking, they sounded like they had never commentated a game before. It was awful.
That had to be the worst game I have ever heard for a MNF game. Just no enthusiasm or joking around. It was like neither one wanted to talk to each other. You could hear crickets chirping between their conversations. It just seemed really awkward.
Was she the one on the Jets/Lions game? My wife walked in the room while I had it on in the background and made some snarky comment on how irritating her voice was.
She reminds me of being hungover on a Saturday morning and forgetting to change the channel after College Gameday and ending up hearing her announce a Purdue vs Iowa game while I struggle on the couch.
Everyone needs to realize that she only has MNF in week 1 because of the doubleheader.
Just a one time deal with Beth. The regular crew was the second game with Joe Tessitore, Jason Witten and Booger McFarland.
Beth is horrible, and my opinion has nothing to do with her being a woman.
That said, I think she's only getting the gigs BECAUSE she is a woman. ESPN keeps going for more and more political correctness and their ratings keep going down, down, down. I hope it was worth it.

Anyone who complains about Beth is a sexist and the product of the oppressive patriarchy and it's brainwashing. The need for diversity and such. Don't think so? The NY Times ran this article a year ago the first time she called a MNF game: https://www.nytimes.com/2017/09/18/sports/nfl-beth-mowins-julie-dicaro.html
I watch a lot of Sunday Night Baseball on ESPN, and I like listening to Jessica Mendoza and what she adds to the broadcast. Conversely, I hate Alex Rodriguez because I can't stand his voice. Add that to the fact that he isn't that good at his job of adding color analysis to the broadcast and you have someone who shouldn't be calling games on a big stage.
I usually find myself muting the TV and finding one of the team audio feeds on the Internet and try to sync up. The best solution to prevent announcers from getting these jobs is don't watch.

Mowins isn't anywhere near Mendoza, Jessica is great, she carries those Sunday night broadcast. Mowins is knowledgeable and professional but mind numblingly boring.
Jason Witten is as brutal as Mowins.
The late game was rough as well. Mowins is bad but she's not the only one.
Mowins is horrible, but count me in the group that likes Mendoza on Sunday Night Baseball. She really does a great job.
It may be some kind of Pavlovian association with Mowins and a 11 o'clock Iowa v. Maryland game, but I just can't stand her.
