Does anyone else hear an audio ‘chirp’ on CBS games, particularly on the animation coming out of replays?
If not, I think the squirrel from Christmas Vacation is living inside my TV.
I hear no chirps, or chirping, other than E5 Yaz in this thread.

Indy receiver catches the ball at the 15 for a gain of 6 and runs parallel and backwards to lose all of those yards back. Well coached team there in Indy.

Edit: And now a QB sneak on 4th and 2. How does Pagano still have a job?

These London games really delivering the drama.
Could be worse; they could be watching Browns/Titans.

Poor Browns fans, what did they ever do to deserve this team? The Browns move out of Cleveland, go on to win two Super Bowls and they are stuck with this version of the Browns.

For the Brits, seeing US football live and in person probably makes them happy they lost the Revolutionary War.

My wife is from Cleveland and her mom is the biggest sports fan I know. She watches every minute of every Browns game. I am not sure how she does it. She's all faith.

I'm not sure what is the saddest part of that post

Well at least the Cav's won one for her; the Indians, not so much.

The Browns; just win a playoff game for the poor woman.

The teams left the field for halftime
Super helpful.

Bills had the ball inside the TB 20 with like 12 seconds left; play by play shows they completed a pass, then the clock ran out. Did they not have any timeouts left? That is brutal to give away 3 points like that.

Good for her, hopefully the Tribe losing wasn't too tough on her, but I'm sure the Cavs winning softened that blow.
If the Cavs lost in 7 and then the Indians blew a 3-1 lead, it would have been horrific. But the Cavs definitely softened the blow.

Apologies if this has been covered, but why is Bears-Panthers on CBS?

Follow up question: why is it televised at all?
It has to do with the SNL flex, allowing the networks for flex day games, too. I don't know the actual specifics but it's related to that.
