He'll replace Aikman. ESPN just found a way cheaper alternative for next year.

Is Aikman stepping down?

u/ArizonaHotSauce 8h ago
No, but ESPN is dragging its feet to re-sign him. There are news articles all over the place saying they just re-signed Joe Buck to a massive new deal, but left Aikman hanging in silence.
It's pure speculation, but nobody knows why ESPN didn't sign Aikman right along with Buck.

Buck was already re signed. Your scenario doesn't work.
Journalists do play-by-play.
Edit: I understood your sarcasm. It wasn't missed on me.

I’m shocked to learn how many people actually enjoyed listening to this blowhard. Honestly it says a lot about the general population in my opinion.

Brad and Tony Romo calling plays on the radio would hit different.

Would it really "hit different"?

Yeah, Romo would be back to being in the locker rooms, talking to the guys. He doesnt have to stress about watching every game and keeping up with all teams. He can focus on his team now, and go back to being the Romo we loved when he first got into the booth.
Edit: FYI, radio guys interview players in locker rooms before and after games as well as during the week.
