And just exactly what qualifies Tanith to commentate on football? Please! She's there to be a "golden girl" cutie. I just hope she doesn't wear the type of revealing outfit she's been wearing for her competitive performances. 
Here's hoping we don't see another "wardrobe malfunction"!

I have heard Tanith take the microphone at skating events. She is a natural talent. Setting her WOW looks aside, she definitely has a gift a gab.
I assume she will be reporting on all the "winter activities" events that are going on here in Detroit. Since the Super Bowl is usually held in the sun belt, Detroit is going all out with a Winter Wonderland theme. In fact, it's snowing right now, LOL.
There is public ice skating at the downtown rink near the super bowl stadium, and local skaters such as Sato and Dungjen and Punsalan and Swallow are performing. There is a big snow slide for kids and a dog sled ride. Plus you can go indoors for "the NFL experience," where you get to push a blocking sled and participate in passing and kicking contests.
I'm thrilled that Tanith is getting this opportunity to strut her stuff. Just wait and see -- she will have a second career in broadcasting before she's done!

What qualifies Terry Gannon to commentate on figure skating?

OK, Mathman. Then I'm hoping that the Super Bowl winners have the chance to commentate at Torino. Perhaps they can do some "local color" stories, take us on a restaurant tour, chat with the locals, etc.

With all due respect, the Canadian commentators should start to refer to Tanith as "the girl from Kingston Ontario who is now a US citizen".
What has been the reaction in Canada to Tanith's obtaining her dual US citizenship?

I don't know about that, but I do expect that the lead figure skating announcer on ABC/ESPN next year will be a basketball player.SkateFan4Life said:OK, Mathman.

Terry Gannon's claim to fame: he scored 7 points in the 1983 March madness basketball tournament finals as North Carorlina State upset Houston for the gold medal. I mean, for the NCAA Championship Trophy.
