1. I first tuned into Fox’s pregame show between 5:15 and 5:30 p.m. ET, when it was in the middle of a bizarre tribute to Jimmy Johnson. I say bizarre because I thought the entire package was leading up to Johnson announcing his retirement.
But when Curt Menefee asked Johnson if he had a retirement to announce, Johnson just said, “One day at a time.” Apparently, Fox just did the tribute to do the tribute. I’m not sure why that couldn’t have been done at the end of the regular season or much earlier in the network’s never-ending pregame show, but 5:30 p.m. ET on Super Bowl Sunday seemed like a really weird place to highlight one pregame show cast member for no reason.
