BigEd76 Posted August 12, 2006 Share Posted August 12, 2006 I like the bar small. It doesn't show in totality on my TV and I like that. I'm all for moderation. I much prefer the smaller CBS box. there was a report that CBS was going to change their graphics for this year (maybe a bar) The Patriots/Falcons game that's on right now is using the familiar CBS graphics...

DrBear Posted August 12, 2006 Share Posted August 12, 2006 And I'm sorry if its a bit off-topic, but when I turned CBS on tonight and heard Dick Enberg, it sounded like an NFL game. Joe Buck is baseball, Al Michaels and John Madden still sound strange together, but Enberg introducing a game is football. Oh, my! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On a related note, not to stray too far off topic, but CBS STILL has the dullest pre-game graphics. Iron helmets, fire...ugh...

NJTank Posted August 12, 2006 Share Posted August 12, 2006 People actually want the box bigger? I remember when sports scores were only shown at the end of innings and at commercial breaks. I preferred that. I'm glad it's small. I normally watch football with the Internet on to check scores anyway, so that score bar isn't very important. To me, it certainly doesn't need to be on every second of the game. Well heres something to consider with the sports bars being on with satilitte TV and the abillity with NFL Sunday Ticket or any other such package to watch all games having the bar is important if you wnat to try and watch parts of all the games and follow whats going on. www.sportsecyclopedia.com For the best in sports history go to the Sports E-Cyclopedia at http://www.sportsecyclopedia.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scraw28 Posted August 12, 2006 Share Posted August 12, 2006 Dick Enberg is football, that damn Jim Nantz needs to stick to College Basketball and golf. He sucks at calling football games period, he was garbage when he was calling college football games in the early 90's.BTW.... CBS normally changes their graphics during the start of the football season.. I wish they go back to the graphics CBS had during the the early 80's until 1986If someone has images please post.. cause I miss the 80's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SgtCarp Posted August 12, 2006 Share Posted August 12, 2006 That's too bad. I was always a sucker for the time whenever someone scored, their name and score flashed in the teams colors. Now that was cool. This is a monstrosity. The reason I am on this earth-Nicole VaidisovaBarack and Roll!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ReginaCanuck Posted August 13, 2006 Share Posted August 13, 2006 The screenshot of the new Fox bar looks alright, except for the stupid dots. I thought their old one was too big, so I'm glad they shrunk it a bit.And Dick Enberg is awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vikmurphy Posted August 13, 2006 Share Posted August 13, 2006 I Personally like all the "FOX BOXES" and lines they were the inovator with the line on FSN now everbody has one. I Did like when they only had logos everybody knows who they are the NFL is the most popular T.V. sport. I Think ESPN is the only one who hasn't Changed to some extent.

Chris062190 Posted August 14, 2006 Author Share Posted August 14, 2006 looks like fox has only changed football so far as baseball's graphics are still the same.I think Fox's best graphics were the ones unveiled for the 04 mlb playoffs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SabreGuy Posted August 14, 2006 Share Posted August 14, 2006 I haven't seen this thing yet, but I'm scared to. I feel like I'm not going to be able to read it. Not only do I not have Hi-Def, I don't even have freaking CABLE. I somehow don't know if that thing is going to broadcast very well to me on my rabbit-ears (which I lovingly refer to as "wi-fi tv").

DG_ThenNowForever Posted August 14, 2006 Share Posted August 14, 2006 I'm under the assumption that Fox introduced the score bar so it would be seen during ESPN replays. I don't like how it shortens the screen, and am surprised to hear that others like it. Crazy. 1 hour ago, ShutUpLutz! said: and the drunken doodoobags jumping off the tops of SUV's/vans/RV's onto tables because, oh yeah, they are drunken drug abusing doodoobags Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TrueYankee26 Posted August 17, 2006 Share Posted August 17, 2006 I'm watching the game now and its horrible! I can't even figure out what quarter they're in! What's up with the dots? I like the bar, but I can't tell the quarter either.And what's with the dancing robot after the commercial break when fox says the sponsors trueyankee26.wordpress.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WJMorris3 Posted August 18, 2006 Share Posted August 18, 2006 Alright, they made ONE improvement.They've seemingly changed the dots not being used from white to gray. This way, the gold dots stick out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tazz013 Posted August 18, 2006 Share Posted August 18, 2006 Alright, they made ONE improvement.They've seemingly changed the dots not being used from white to gray. This way, the gold dots stick out. I already noted that on the first page of the thread; they made the change on the fly sometime during the first game. Save the slugalo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
