    I think Magic Johnson was a guest commentator while he had minority ownership of the Lakers.

      NBA isn’t at real sport, is it? I watched a reg season game, pretty sure it’s not. I expected Meadowlark to come out after halftime and lay some dazzle on us, at least a no-look backwards half court swish.

        Well that's up to you but I'd find it pretty stupid of the NFL to send Brady to cover a Raiders game while being a part owner.

          I don't think so. NBA playoff games are barely watchable, regular season - how could you stand it??? We all complain about the refs in football - holy cow NBA refs set a new low . . . . . . . . there's no rhyme or reason (or consistency) to their calls - and CERTAINLY no travelling any more. Did they abolish that rule when I wasn't looking?

          Hockey, football and (maybe) playoff baseball . . . . . . . that's IT

            Baseball is legit - it’s just slower paced hence not as entertaining (to me).

            yes, they must have abolished traveling.

              Basketball is unwatchable. It feels like pro wrestling now. Hey maybe that's it! Put a turnbuckle around the court and let them have at it. It would be more watchable then.

              I will say the NFL is not far behind the NBA. Every time I turn on the NFL channel they are talking more about equity and inclusivity, equal rights and less about football. They talk about the NFL acceleration programs for minorities and women. As if the NFL is some racist, misogynist kingdom. What a joke.

              For me it really is straining my loyalty to the league. The NFL pumps out more multi millionaires than any other sport in the USA. None of them are thankful. They just complain about how the NFL can do more and change more. I for one don't want change. I would like to see football the way it used to be. All the while we the fan base have to shell $800 a week to take our family's to the games on sunday.

              Kind of wishing for a backlash to happen like it did for budlight.

              Rant over. It's early and I'm grumpy.

                  Magic does not have a regular commentary gig. THAT is the difference. Brady has signed the paperwork to do both. That is unethical. But, then again Brady was a cheat as a player too (see the ball-bag being stolen from official Walt Corey).

                    You haven't answered why it's unethical. How is he going to use his job as a broadcaster to cheat?

                      Jimmy G rarely makes it through a season. Raiders forgot that part.

                        Jimmy G + Josh McDaniels + Adams + 17-game season. What could go wrong for the Raiders lol.

                          To each his own. I’m at the point where the NFL is really the only sport I watch during the regular season unless I go to a hockey or basketball game. Hockey, which is the sport I played, is not a TV sport. Gotta be there. Playoff basketball is great and this year has had some very entertaining series. Baseball is like golf, good for a nap
