Al Michaels Fires Back at Critics Who Have Been Upset With His ‘TNF’ Calls

Legendary play-by-play broadcaster Al Michaels fired back at critics in an interview with New York Post media reporter Andrew Marchand.

Michaels, 78, has been criticized for his Thursday Night Football broadcasts being low-energy, with many calling for the longtime former Sunday Night Football broadcaster to retire. But Michaels says there’s “no question” in his mind that he’ll continue broadcasting games for Amazon next season to complete his three-year contract with the network, and pushed back on the assertions that he isn’t bringing his ‘A’ game.
