That is what I thought when I watched the game on DVR. He often seemed biased because he didn't do his homework on the Cardinals this season and obviously knows more about the Cowboys. He disagreed with the bad calls and complimented Warner at times but spent most of the game talking about the 'Boys.

What, is he going to drive the bandwagon for us now? F that guy.

That would be a funny site.

The guy has been unable to hide his bitterness toward the Cards since he started commentating.

Everything negative about the Cowboys was an excuse. Everything positive about the Cowboys was like it was expected and how dare you think differently.

Everything negative about the Cardinals was like it was expected and how dare you expect them to be up to a challenge like the Cowboys. Everything positive about the Cardinals was clearly a mistake or miscue by the Cowboys and it won't last as the boys will figure it out.

do you really think this would have been different with ANYONE else? No one ever takes us seriously and they shouldn't UNITL we win games like we did on Sunday. I mean, were there any former Bear announcers on that MNF meltdown when they were consistently waiting for the bottom to fall out? No.

as if this would be different than any other announcer. come on guys. coming into the season the Cowboys were the biggest story in the NFL and we were... the Cardinals.

this ain't rocket science.

I Tivo'd the Bills game and watched it later and Steve Burlein seemed really bitter towards the Cardinals too... They showed a clip of him playing for the Cards and he kinda acted like he didn't really remember... or maybe he was trying to be funny and just failed, haha

Very strange, Boomer came here to retire and was loved by the fans and Burlein went on to bigger and better things with Carolina so I dont know where all the bitterness comes from.
