Lemme ask YOU a question: why would someone with multiple successful RUclips channels spend all his time watching a children's alternate NFL broadcast?
Well, he wanted to own the Dallas Cowboys, but he ended up with the Broncos as the gift. I always presumed he sold them afterwards, since it wasn't really the team he wanted.
@ That’s what I assumed too was that he sold them as well and since the Simpsons didn’t magically end up with millions of dollars I assumed it’s canon that the Denver Broncos didn’t cost Hank much money to acquire and Homer probably traded them to Moe to pay off his bar tab
I realize you’re referring only to the graphics, but, at the same time, I have a bad feeling that you’re setting the bar below even Geraldo Rivera’s search for Al Capone’s safe.
Okay, hear me out, as someone who’s not watched a single episode of the Simpsons, I was really having so much fun with it. The graphics really fit the Simpsons theme perfectly. Especially with the creativity being put into it, and the Simpsons VAs were on point. Not to mention having actual Simpsons characters playing in the NFL was a great surprise. If Phineas and Ferb or My Little Pony ends up being the next one, then I’m all in for that.
The Simpsons broadcast was really glitchy but it did have some funny moments like Ralph Wiggum scoring a touchdown, Homer Simpson playing both QB and CB, Lisa Simpson playing as Ja'Marr Chase, etc. Honestly it did feel better than the Toy Story broadcast last year.
I enjoyed the broadcast alot and didnt take it too seriously. Hope they do more of these. However you’re absolutely right about the laziness. I was so bummed to see the ending was the same regardless of the outcome. Same with the coin toss.
I doubt that. They haven't done anything right. Especially when the presentation is getting weird. And I don't do weird things. Sometimes, but not all the time.
At 8:05 there's no defending putting Homer Jones on the wrong team, but he was the first player to score a KICKOFF RETURN touchdown in a MNF game, which he did to open the second half of the Browns-Jets game.
The Bengals and the Cowboys needed something to actually get people to watch. Both teams were under .500, so nobody would waste three hours of watching bad football.
As a lifelong Bengals fan, this alternate feed was emblematic of our entire season thus far. If I were Zac Taylor, even though we won, I would take a page out of Sam Wyche’s playbook and keep the press-with the exceptions of Dan Hoard and Dave Lapham, because I could at least vent to them-out of the locker room after the game out of sheer embarrassment.
Now that I've finally watched this, I'll give JG9 credit for ending the Dude Perfect broadcasts. Those were worse than October 7th and simply could not be televised anymore.
Yeah, ESPN has been giving sports to ABC for some reason. Since its rebranding (formerly ABC Sports), I'd imagine that ESPN would bring more sports to ABC because of the high viewership of the SEC football broadcasts.
I think while still glitchy, it's improved. And look forward to this in the future as bugs get worked out. I would like to believe they did do 2 animations for coin flip, but erroneously hit the wrong one. I think this is a decent start to a potentially great thing.
ok i can't get over how much that announcer muffed Iosivas the accented sh at the end is very soft and gentle in the slavic languages, and yet bud ripps into it like it was his dinner.
I’m a massive fan of The Simpsons. I’m a massive fan of football but because I enjoy football, I’m going to watch the mainstream broadcast regardless of what the alternate is.
Was this incredibly flawed? Sure but there’s over 200 regular season games a year let them try a few fun things like this a year as long as the traditional broadcast is also an option
The only thing that would make it more hilarious is after the transformation between halftime and the 3rd quarter have one of them singing the Armageddon song and show the first half hilights lol I was thinking about that when I was watching it last night
How has there not been one of these for Backyard Football? It seems like the perfect excuse to both sell 90s nostalgia AND have the janky animations and character models, as thats kinda what we all love those games for. Its peak early-modern video game culture
It wasn't even good in theory. It's too childish like the Toy Story broadcast, but it goes until 11PM. Doesn't know who it wants the appeal to, just like the dude perfect TNF.
Exactly. If they want to go this route of trying to appeal to kids but with a prime time game, why not do Backyard Football? It's a kids game, but the main audience would still be adults loving the nostalgia
I will push back and say I bet as far as the coin toss goes they weren’t going for fans like all of us who knew the cowboys won and deferred but to the fans watching the simpsons who, for all practical intents, would be just fine thinking the bengals won the toss
It for sure didn't have the perfect timing of something happening and the voice actor commentating. Patrick Star roasting Russel Wilson a few years back just can't be forced to happen.
I can imagine far worse cartoons for the NFL to promote their league. Cases in point: Bob's Burgers, Rick 'N Morty, the latest Star Wars shit from Disney...dare i go on? 😆
SOMEONE AT DISNEY NEEDS FIRED. THIS IS GOD AWFUL. The Simpsons great show. The broadcast on a two minute delay. DUMPSTER FIRE. Not even the tire fire in Springfield U.S.A.
This presentation looks even worse than modern Madden NFL games. In fact, it's worse than that. I haven't played a single Madden game in over 10 years; I would much rather stick to the classic ones, like Madden NFL 03 through 10.
I flipped on the simpsons broadcast just to check it out in the 4th quarter and was met with the nightmare fuel of a janky 3D model of animated Dan Orlovski and Mina Kimes in the booth clearly hating that they had to pretend bart and homer were playing football in front of them. Like, why? Why are you doing this? Who asked for this? And why havent any of these broadcasts been something fans might actually like like the Backyard Football crew? THAT is the type of 90s nostalgia that would actually sell
They should have gone for a Simpsons: Hit & Run aesthetic. People LOVE that game, they have a lot of nostalgia for that game. It would have worked. I don't know what they were thinking with this Backyard Football-looking crap. Still, Mina was the MVP of this thing, hands down. Die, Broadcast, Die. Which is German for "The Broadcast, The" You know what I think would be really cool? A Lego broadcast.
Alternated should have the overlay interactive graphics on top of the actual game with announcing that’s entertaining and educational for new fans to learn. These bobble head things are just awful

Having Mr. Burns sit with Jerry Jones in the suite was funny, though.
Ned Flanders wasn't there because he was busy bleeping out the players' cuss words during the main broadcast
"Well, scored a touchdown, and now he's pointing to his darn-diddly-arn crotch, Ray, switch to camera two..."

Alright. I’ll just say it: The concept was worth it just for your comment.
A Family Guy game would have to be New England Patriots vs Cleveland Browns.
Yep It would be funny if they used the Family Guy John Madden. He would just be saying. "I'm ready to see a good game of Football." 😅😅
Is Cleveland still a character, or is he gone like Apu from the Simpsons?
he still there
I doubt it. I recall Peter Griffin playing with the Patriots and the Shipoopi halftime song.
@adogg281 then you're not remembering correctly. The shipoopi song was a touchdown celebration
I was beginning to think I had grown out of the Simpsons. Just so happened that ESPN is really bad at altcasts.
I think I outgrew “The Simpsons” when they were spun off from Tracey Ullman. Then again, of the two, I always preferred her program anyway.
"Or one of the 49 states if you don't recognize Missouri" 😂
They’d be cold and dead in the ground before they recognized Missouri…
@Empolon667 Why the dislike for Missouri? I'd think most people wouldn't recognize Florida as a state.
Not funny
I take this as a personal attack
@@Jason_MaierActually, having lived in both, I’m less and less inclined to recognize either as states.
I actually liked how the broadcast only focused on the classic era jokes. Not to mention the presentation had the show’s sense of humor.
Then where was Anton Lubchenko?? Did his communications degree really hold him back
@ ???
@@wizardoferror9942 he's the kicker for Springfield uni who lost his leg after kicking the winning FG
@ Idk lol
I actually caught at least one modern era reference; specifically the crossing guard episode
At least Booger McFarland wasn't on commentary and asking a kid how an NFL defense works
Somehow I think that distinction would have gone to Warren Sapp.
When jaguargator isnt speaking, all the viewers should be commenting "wheres jaguargator"?
I thought Homer owns the Denver Broncos which was gifted to him by Hank Scorpio. Playing for the Cowboys seems like a conflict of interest.
Well, he wanted to own the Dallas Cowboys, but he ended up with the Broncos as the gift. I always presumed he sold them afterwards, since it wasn't really the team he wanted.
@ That’s what I assumed too was that he sold them as well and since the Simpsons didn’t magically end up with millions of dollars I assumed it’s canon that the Denver Broncos didn’t cost Hank much money to acquire and Homer probably traded them to Moe to pay off his bar tab
They would've done that bit for South Park if it was the Denver Broncos playing on Primetime instead
The biggest problem I had was they didn’t have a pop up in the corner to say who it actually was when a character scores or made a play
Did the players snack on steamed hams at halftime?
😂
At least this looks 1000x better than any Dude Perfect broadcast.
@JavierVelez2007 Speaking of alternate broadcasts; think the NFL would consider BarStool Sports?

The part about NFL stars guest starring on The Simpsons, Never forget the 1999 episode. Best. Episode. Ever.
What little I saw on ESPN FUNDAY was fairly unwatchable. I have no idea why they thought this would work.
Somehow the Simpsons keep sinking lower, sad. Why the NFL keeps barfing these theme games out is a mystery to me.
At 8:05 there's no defending putting Homer Jones on the wrong team, but he was the first player to score a KICKOFF RETURN touchdown in a MNF game, which he did to open the second half of the Browns-Jets game.
Flanders probably got cancelled by the NFL due to his Super Bowl halftime show.
Simpsons died after Phil Hartman died and Brad Bird left.
The simpsons need to be taken out back and sent to the big farm in the sky.
I liked it. I thought it was clever and funny.
How soon before they start giving out broadcasts to goofs like druski and kai?
