"In Detroit, ABC crew readies big finish for it's NFL coverage" -by Richie Belancik, volume 8 issue 38 page 29

I chose this article because the article talks about the tv crew for ABC bringing super 40 to Detriot. I am a big steeler fan so thats what caught my eye because they were going to be covering the steelers this sunday. ABC has been covering monday night football for over 36 football seasons which is amazing to me because they have been doing it for so long.
For the Super Bowl this sunday there will be an estimate of 130 million dometic viewers and a worldwide audience for an estimated by the NFL of one billion people watching the super bowl. Even though the players should be the only ones that are a little nervous, you have to think about the crew for ABC doing the broadcast. If a player makes a mistake there is always another play coming up to redeem themseleves, but for the camera men/women and producers of ABC if they mess up you will definitely notice the problem in front of an estimated one billion people across the world. If a lineman messes up in the game and misses a blocking assignment i will bet that a lot of viewers do not catch the mistake by the faulty lineman, but right soon the producers click to the wrong camera angle it can cause problems.
ABC also said that there will be an additional four cameras specifically for defining replay views of in-bounds and out-of bounds situation for the game this Sunday. I think that is a great idea because during the colts game three weeks ago , the officails almost blew the game for us on a clearly intercepted pass from Troy Palomalu. More cameras and more angels cannot hurt anything espically if it is going to be the biggest game of the year.
