NFL on Westwood One

NFL on Westwood One

The NFL on Westwood One is the brand name given to weekly National Football League games carried on the radio over the Dial Global Radio Network. It, along with other CBS Radio Sports programming that is currently produced by Dial Global, is the lone remaining element of the former Westwood One to actively retain the "Westwood One" brand over the air.

The NFL on Westwood One package includes two weekly Sunday afternoon games, the Sunday Night Football game, the Monday Night Football game, the Thanksgiving Day games, Thursday Night Football (beginning in 2006), any late-season Friday and Saturday night games, the Pro Football Hall of Fame Game, the season-opening NFL Kickoff Game, all playoff games, the Super Bowl, and the Pro Bowl. These games are distributed throughout the United States, Canada (via TSN Radio), and (via BBC Radio 5 Live Sports Extra) the United Kingdom. (For special events such as the NFL International Series and the Super Bowl, the BBC uses its own announcers.)

Relationship to CBS

The former Westwood One had a long-standing relationship with CBS Radio. CBS' parent company owned the network for approximately ten years (1998–2008) and, through the CBS Radio Network, maintained control of the production of certain programming, including NFL games, an arrangement that has continued following Westwood One's acquisition by Dial Global.

As such, there is often synergy between the NFL on Westwood One and its former sister outlet, the NFL on CBS.

The current theme music for The NFL on Westwood One is "Posthumus Zone" by E.S. Posthumus, the same theme music currently used for the NFL on CBS television coverage (Westwood One's sports coverage had always used the appropriate CBS television theme for their sport where applicable).

Some personnel is shared between the two units; for instance, certain CBS play-by-play announcers (e.g. Don Criqui, Dick Enberg and Ian Eagle) call select Sunday afternoon games throughout the first several weeks of the season on CBS and then switch to Thursday and Saturday night games on Westwood One. Boomer Esiason, who is an analyst for CBS' The NFL Today, calls color commentary on Westwood One's Monday Night Football (and will often advertise the latter on the former, as "the Monday night game on Westwood One"); conversely, Steve Tasker, a color commentator for CBS's Sunday afternoon coverage, serves as an analyst on The NFL on Westwood One shows.

The coverage carried the CBS Radio Sports tag (both with and without "Westwood One") for many years before switching to Westwood One. The Mutual Broadcasting System, purchased by Westwood One in 1985, also aired NFL coverage for many years, while NBC Radio, purchased by Westwood One in 1987, had exclusive NFL coverage in 1985-86. Westwood One now acknowledges the NBC Radio broadcasts as part of the entire history of the network's football coverage.[1]

Westwood One also served as the distributor for the Sports USA network's NFL games; as such, Westwood One employed Sports USA announcers for certain games covered by the former network, including Thanksgiving Classic games, the opening Monday night doubleheader, and Wild Card Weekend, during the 2009 and 2010 seasons. This agreement was terminated in the 2011 offseason.

NFL on Westwood One doubleheader

Each week, The NFL on Westwood One features two games from the Sunday afternoon lineup (one of the 1:00 games and one of the 4:00 games, respectively). These games are not league-endorsed and are broadcast by agreement with individual teams.[2] Dial Global currently has agreements with 23 of the league's 32 teams (of the 9 others, 8 are affiliated with Compass Media Networks instead).[3]

Broadcast teams

The NFL on Westwood One's 2011 Sunday doubleheader broadcast teams consist of Howard David paired with Tony Boselli and Kevin Kugler paired with Mark Malone. David and Kugler have been the voices of Sunday doubleheaders since 2009, with David joining to replace Bill Rosinski (who departed for ESPN Radio) and Kugler joining to replace Harry Kalas (who died). David had previously been Sports USA's lead NFL voice and Kugler had been Westwood One's lead voice for college football and basketball. Boselli replaced Dan Reeves, who left Westwood One after the 2009 season, as David's analyst for 2010 and previously called games for Fox. Malone joined the broadcast team in 2007 to replace Trev Alberts, the former ESPN college football analyst who is now the athletic director for the University of Nebraska at Omaha.

Scott Graham hosts pregame and halftime shows in the studio; he took over the positions from Tommy Tighe in 2009.

Sunday Night Football

Pregame

Westwood One's coverage of Sunday Night Football begins with their weekly recap show, NFL Sunday. The show beings at 7:30 p.m every Sunday night on most affiliates (in cases where a market is getting the late Westwood One game, the show is joined in progress), with Scott Graham hosting. The show consists of highlights and statistics from the previous games of the day as well as a preview of the upcoming Sunday night game live from the stadium. Graham then anchors the normal Sunday Night Football pregame show until kickoff. Graham has hosted NFL Sunday since he joined Westwood One, replacing Tommy Tighe as he did as studio host; he hosted in 2009 with Jason Horowitz, who replaced Dave Lamont who departed for a college football play-by-play position at ESPN.

For the 2006 season, NBC co-produced NFL Sunday and turned it into an abbreviated radio version of its Football Night in America TV pregame, complete with the John Williams-composed NBC Sunday Night Football theme song. Al Trautwig started the season as host of the show, but was replaced by Graham in the middle of the season. The format of NBC NFL Sunday (as the show was called) was slightly different from the format the show used before and after. In addition to the usual format one of the analysts from Football Night in America would appear every week to offer analysis of the game ahead.

Play-by-play

The play-by-play role for CBS Radio Sports' coverage of Sunday Night Football was originally filled by Jim Nantz, who called the games from 1987 to 1990. Howard David took over the role in 1991 and continued through 1995. The following season David was promoted by the network to the Monday Night Football crew, and CBS Radio replaced him with (at the time) former Dallas Cowboys announcer Brad Sham, who had worked at the network in the past (and still does today) as a secondary play-by-play man.

After the 1997 season, Sham returned to the Cowboys. The network hired Joel Meyers to replace him, and he would hold the position through the end of the 2005 season.

Dave Sims is the current voice of Sunday Night Football, replacing Meyers permanently after subbing for him when his other broadcasting endeavors, including play-by-play for the Los Angeles Lakers, San Antonio Spurs, and Big 12 Conference college football on Fox Sports Net, rendered him unavailable. Prior to that, Sims was one of two main broadcasters on the featured doubleheader earlier on Sunday. Howard David subs for Sims on games he can't call due to other commitments.

Color commentary

When Howard David was in the booth, he originally split the season between two color commentators, John Dockery and Pat Haden. This arrangement was in place due to the fact that television coverage of Sunday Night Football was split at the time between TNT and ESPN, with Haden serving as TNT's color analyst for their coverage and moving over to the radio side once his obligations with TNT were fulfilled. Other color commentators include Bob Trumpy, who served as Sunday Night Football analyst from 2000–2004 and again from 2006–2007; John Riggins, who was the color man for the 2005 season; Jim Fassel, who was 2008's analyst; and James Lofton, who replaced Fassel in 2009 after he left for a head coaching job in the United Football League.

Monday Night Football

The Monday Night Football broadcast on Westwood One features its lead broadcast team, as the network has long considered Monday night to be its flagship NFL broadcast, even as the NFL now considers the Sunday night game its "game of the week". As such, the team occupying this position stays together to call important playoff games and the Super Bowl.

Buck and Stram

For many years (beginning in 1978), the CBS Radio/Westwood One coverage of Monday Night Football was anchored by Jack Buck on play-by-play, with former Kansas City Chiefs coach Hank Stram alongside him in the color position. They stayed paired together for nearly every major game covered by the network from 1978 until Super Bowl XIX in January 1985. Since Westwood One now regards NBC Radio's coverage of Monday Night Football as part of its broadcast history Stram and Buck were regarded as temporarily replaced by Don Criqui and Bob Trumpy for the two years NBC Radio held the contract. Buck and Stram returned to the booth at the beginning of the 1987 season and stayed there until the end of the 1995 season, with Super Bowl XXX in January 1996 marking their final game as a broadcast team after sixteen total seasons on radio.

During their time as Monday Night Football lead broadcast team both Buck and Stram worked on the television side as well. Stram had served as a color commentator on The NFL on CBS prior to joining Buck on the radio and continued to do so from 1978 until CBS lost the rights to the NFL in 1993. Buck rejoined the CBS television coverage as a play-by-play man in 1982 (after having called games for the network from 1964 to 1974) and remained there until 1987. The duo worked together as a television broadcast team in 1982, 1983, and 1985.

David, Millen and Esiason

To replace the departing Buck and Stram for 1996, Westwood One promoted Howard David from the Sunday Night Football broadcast and moved Matt Millen, who at the time was a color commentator for Fox and a contributor to the Westwood One Monday night pregame show, into the booth alongside him. Beginning in 1998 and continuing until 2001 David served as the play-by-play voice of the New York Jets for WFAN and later WABC, and would require a substitute when the Jets played on Monday night or in the playoffs. An example of the latter came in the 1998 NFC Championship Game; John Rooney substituted for an absent David in Minneapolis for Westwood One as he called that year's AFC Championship Game for WFAN.

Boomer Esiason joined David and Millen for the 2000 season after being fired by ABC from the Monday Night Football telecast. It was the last season in the booth for Millen as he departed to take a position as President of the Detroit Lions, a job which he received great crticism in and was eventually fired from in 2008.

In 2001 David and Esiason were joined by CBS Sports' veteran reporter Lesley Visser, who became the first woman to be an analyst on an NFL broadcast. The pairing only lasted the one season, as Visser decided to leave the booth to focus on her reporting for both CBS and HBO. It was also David's last season calling games for Westwood One until his 2009 return, as he became a full-time sports talk show host in Miami and the voice of the Miami Dolphins beginning in 2002.

Albert and Esiason

For the 2002 season Westwood One chose veteran broadcaster Marv Albert, who had last called NFL games for NBC in 1997 and was best known for his NBA broadcasting for NBC, TNT, and (at the time) the New York Knicks. Esiason stayed on to be his color commentator. Since Esiason also joined The NFL Today broadcast team for the 2002 season and CBS (at the time) traveled to the site of the AFC Championship Game, Albert and Esiason became the exclusive voices of the game. To accomplish this Esiason would call the end of each half with a wireless microphone so he could save time to go to the field level set CBS used for these games. Esiason has also done this in years CBS has carried the Super Bowl, but has not done this for the AFC Championship game since the 2005 game in Denver as CBS has not traveled to the AFC Championship since.

Beginning in 2007, due to his current job as morning host for WFAN, Esiason has required substitute announcers for games that require significant travel from his New York home. For the first two years of this arrangement various guest announcers would fill Esiason's place alongside Albert. Beginning in 2009 Westwood One appointed Kevin Harlan and Warren Moon to serve as the backup broadcast team, with Harlan substituting for Albert on games he was unable to make due to other commitments and Moon substituting for Esiason when travel to the game was an issue.

The pairing ended following the 2009 NFL season, with Albert's last call being Super Bowl XLIV in Miami. On June 4, 2010, Albert announced that he was leaving Westwood One to focus on his NBA broadcasting duties for TNT and the YES Network.

Harlan and Esiason

On June 29, 2010, it was announced that Kevin Harlan would be succeeding Albert as Westwood One's primary play-by-play voice for Monday Night Football, with Esiason continuing as color commentator.[4] In 2010, Randy Cross served as Esiason's substitute for select games, while Wayne Larrivee filled in on play-by-play when Harlan was unavailable. In 2011, Dan Fouts will serve as Esiason's substitute for select games.

Pregame and halftime show host

The Monday Night Football pregame and halftime shows are conducted differently than Westwood One's usual pregames, as there is no other game action to recap. Jim Gray presides over both the pregame and halftime shows, which are more feature driven and often feature guest commentators such as Mike Ditka, who contributes to the pregame show weekly with predictions and commentary. In addition to the Monday night games, Gray also hosts the studio shows for the Thursday opening game and the Super Bowl.

There is currently no official sideline reporter for Monday Night Football on Westwood One. John Dockery served as sideline reporter from 1999 to 2007.

Spanish language

In 2005, Westwood One carried an alternate Spanish-language feed featuring Clemson Smith-Muniz as play-by-play host and David Crommett as commentator. Those broadcasts have moved to United Stations Radio Networks.

Run to the Playoffs (Thursday Night/Saturday Night Football)

With the NFL adding late season Thursday and Saturday night games to its slate in 2006 (as well as consolidating its Saturday action into one game), Westwood One has added the Run to the Playoffs games to its coverage.

Ian Eagle called Westwood One's Thursday Night Football games in 2008 and 2009. In 2010, Eagle will be joined by Trent Green. He was previously joined by Dennis Green in 2008 and Randy Cross in 2009 as color analysts. Green also served as the analyst in 2007, and left to take a head coaching job in the United Football League.

Dick Enberg served as Westwood One's Thursday Night Football voice from 2006–2007, with Sam Wyche as his analyst for the 2006 season. Don Criqui and Joel Meyers served as play-by-play men for Saturday Night Football, with Marv Albert calling the lone Saturday game in 2008.

Playoff coverage

For the first two rounds of the playoffs, often the regular broadcast teams for Westwood One are mixed, due to Boomer Esiason's unavailability. During the wild card and divisional weekends, there are four games, therefore four separate crews are needed. Some of the other established crews call the less-popular games. For instance, in 2007, Dick Enberg and Dennis Green (from the Thursday night crew) called one of the wild card games, and Marv Albert called games alongside Jim Fassel from the Sunday doubleheader team. In 2009, the teams were even more mixed- for example, Marv Albert called an opening round game with Dennis Green and a divisional playoff game with Warren Moon.

Typically, the first time the main crews are together comes during conference championship weekend. Since Esiason has become a member of The NFL Today cast he and Albert will call the AFC Championship Game (in years that CBS broadcasts from the game site and in addition to their duties as Super Bowl broadcasters) while the Sunday Night Football team will be responsible for the NFC Championship Game. Since 2006, however, CBS has not chosen to travel to the sites of the AFC Championship Game. In the first of those two seasons Albert called the 2007 game in Indianapolis alongside Sam Wyche.

In 2008, neither Albert nor Esiason was available on championship weekend, so Dave Sims and Bob Trumpy moved to the AFC Championship game in New England while Bill Rosinski took Albert's place alongside Jim Fassel for the NFC Championship game in Green Bay. For 2009, Albert returned to the booth for championship Sunday, calling the NFC Championship game alongside Fassel with Dave Sims and Dennis Green responsible for the AFC Championship game. The 2010 conference championship games saw Kevin Harlan and Warren Moon call the AFC championship game while Sims and James Lofton called the NFC championship game.

Other programming

Westwood One, in addition to its game coverage and highlight show on Sundays, Mondays, and Thursdays, offers to affiliate stations four different NFL-related programs during the season leading up to the Super Bowl. The first to premiere is Fantasy Football Forecast, an hour-long weekly program hosted by Kevin Kugler and James Lofton regarding fantasy leagues. This program premieres in late August and runs until the final week of the season.[5]

A second program, NFL Insider, runs from the beginning of the season through to the Super Bowl, is a program hosted by Sunday doubleheader analysts Mark Malone and Dan Reeves and CBS television's Steve Tasker, where the hosts provide analysis of the week, present highlights of the previous week's action, and interview players and coaches.[6]

Boomer Esiason hosts an NFL preview show every week (appropriately called NFL Preview), where he and Scott Graham analyze each game in depth and provide information about what players and other factors will play roles in the upcoming week. This program runs through Super Bowl Sunday and is thirty minutes in length, but runs for an hour leading into the Super Bowl.[7]

Graham and Esiason also present a live radio version of The NFL Today every Sunday morning.[8]

Availability

For the Conference Championship games and the Super Bowl, most affiliate radio stations of the participating teams' networks must accept the feed from Westwood One. Only the flagship stations (in both English and other languages) can transmit the team's local radio broadcast, although the local broadcasts are also available on Sirius Satellite Radio and NFL Audio Pass. An exception is made for the Green Bay Packers because they technically have flagships in two separate cities, WTAQ-FM/AM and WIXX (FM) in Green Bay and WTMJ in Milwaukee; the latter station has produced Packers radio broadcasts for many years. If the local Westwood One affiliate is not the same as the corresponding affiliate of the team, the Westwood One station retains broadcast rights and the team's station must switch to alternate programming (for example, KSPN in Los Angeles aired an alternate feed of ESPN Radio on January 20, 2008 when the San Diego Chargers played in the AFC Championship Game, as exclusive rights belonged to KLAC, the Chargers' L.A. flagship.)

For all other weeks, within 75 miles of a team's stadium, only stations the team or its flagship station contracts with can carry those games, regardless if the team is home or away. Thus, any competing station that carries Westwood One broadcasts cannot air those games- for instance, any time the New York Jets are playing on Sunday or Monday nights, their games do not air on New York City's Westwood One affiliate, WFAN, but instead WABC and WEPN (the Jets' flagships) retain local exclusivity. (In the case of the Sunday doubleheaders, most stations can opt for an alternate national broadcast from the Sports USA Radio Network or, beginning in 2009, Compass Media Networks.) This rule applies to Toronto, Canada whenever the Buffalo Bills play nationally. (However, in the case of Toronto, the same station affiliates with both the Bills radio network and Westwood One, which means the only difference is which broadcast team the station uses). For a time, the rule applied to the Los Angeles market, but it was relaxed in 2008 and all national radio broadcasts are now available in that market on KLAC (Westwood One) and KFWB (Sports USA Radio).

A similar rule applies to Westwood One's NHL coverage, although the NHL's radius is much smaller, and in some markets (such as Rochester, New York), local broadcasts and national broadcasts have aired on competing stations.

The NFL on Westwood One originally was not available on the NFL Audio Pass (formerly Field Pass) subscription Internet radio service, though the network's prime time and playoff broadcasts became available beginning in the 2009 NFL season as a result of a new broadcast contract.

In December 2008, it was reported that the NFL was considering leaving Westwood One for a rival service (ESPN Radio, Sports USA, and Sporting News Radio being the contenders), or possibly splitting rights for prime-time, Thanksgiving, and postseason games between two or more networks.[2] However, on March 12, 2009 it was announced that Westwood One had signed a two-year extension with the NFL.[10] The league then announced on December 22, 2010 that Westwood One's contract has been extended through 2014.[11]
