Ladies Night
/Now, here is something that should have happened years ago.
Amazon’s live streams of 11 NFL “Thursday Night Football” games will feature the first all-female broadcast booth in league history, the company announced on Tuesday.
Andrea Kremer, a longtime NFL reporter and recent Pro Football Hall of Fame inductee, will announce the games alongside Hannah Storm, an ESPN “SportsCenter” anchor and “Monday Night Football” pregame show host.
The duo will make their debut on Thursday, when the Los Angeles Rams face the Minnesota Vikings on Amazon’s “Prime Video” subscription service.
“NFL fans will hear history made this season -- bringing two female announcers together to call an entire NFL game has never been done before,” said Greg Hart, vice president of Prime Video. “Our customers around the world love to stream football -- we are thrilled to have Andrea and Hannah bring their extensive knowledge of the game to fans on Prime Video.”
Great for Amazon! Now, let’s hope that the archaic TV networks take note.
