Al Michaels has the same energy for internet haters as he did calling Saturday's wild-card game between the Jaguars and Chargers: None at all.The "Sunday Night Football" turned "Thursday Night Football" fixture dismi sed criticism of his and Tony Dungy's le s-than-enthusiastic description of the Jaguars' epic 31-30 victory, which featured everything from a 27-point comeback to a walk-off field goal."Read some comments that we didnt sound excited enough," after some platitudes about the broadcast. "Internet compost! You know me as well as anyone no screaming, no yelling, no hollering. Its TELEVISION! Ellipses and captions are sufficient when pictures tell the story. Im not doing a game for over-the-top YouTube hits."In the first half, the jokes were about Amazon's "Thursday Night Football," which was plagued with bad games throughout the year, following Michaels. But he said things kicked up.MORE:"I thought the energy was much better once Jax made it a game. 27-0 makes it difficult to make it sound like more than it is," he admitted. "One of the things that I think makes Tony Brendan Lemieux Jersey good is that he doesnt overtalk and load it up with unneeded blather. Hes measured, but almost everything he says has relevance and poignancy. A lot of folks who understand this industry are annoyed with the over-the-top yelling that makes a game sound like an offshoot of talk radio. Im in that corner, but there are others who obviously think otherwise."Michaels' views are in line with what he thought of his Thursday night games with Kirk Herbstreit this year."We're making the most of it," he said of "Thursday Night Football," in "I mean, you just can't oversell something.Do you want me to sell you a 20-year-old Mazda? Thats what youre asking me to do. I cant sell you a used car."MORE:The ire against Michaels' calls continued from Saturday into Sunday night, with a parody emerging of what the Bengals' go-ahead 98-yard touchdown would have sounded like as called by Michaels and Dungy.If Al Michaels and Tony Dungy called that Bengals fumble return Korked Bats (@korkedbats) MORE:Michaels' call of Riley Patterson's 36-yard game-winner was stepped on by a flag, but when it was confirmed the penalty was on the Chargers, Michaels is done calling games this season, as Mike Tirico and Cris Collinsworth will be on the call for NBC's divisional round game next week. But when he returns to Amazon in 2023, don't expect to see him changing much. Clearly, he's content with how he calls games now. Compost be damned! Anttoni Honka Jersey
