I fucking hate you! Die motherfucker! Die 5 years ago! The taco bell dog is dead. He where’s the beef ladies are dead. Spuds Mckenzie is dead. Why are you still ruining football ever Sunday with your dancing and fucking around looking stupid? ---

It could be worse - it could be voiced by Shannon Sharpe. I’ll take FOX over CBS any day for that very reason. ---

I’m with you. I hate the thing, too. Almost as much as I hate Faith Hill’s intro to the Sunday Night game. Having said all that, it’s really not pit-worthy. ---

Fox uses that robot for all the sports they televise. I always see it during the MLB play-offs and World Series. On a related note, I really miss NBC’s coverage of the baseball. ---

Wow. That youtube link was the first time I’ve ever seen it and I’m irritated already. How could anybody think that was good idea? Now that I know it exists I have this sort of itch in the back of my skull. [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/kill-the-fox-nfl-robot-now/560665.md?page=2)
