Terry Bradshaw has been in the broadcasting game for over four decades.
The FOX NFL Sunday analyst and former quarterback has been a fixture in American living rooms as a broadcaster for so long that many fans remember him more for talking about football than for his actual career on the field.
The former Louisiana Tech quarterback says that eventually, he will hang up his suits, but that isn’t happening now.
There’s been some speculation that Terry Bradshaw has been told to retire by Fox Sports, but he has made it clear that “that hasn’t happened.”
The former Louisiana Tech quarterback stated, “You know what man, I don’t know when that time comes when then they say to me, you know ‘happy trails’. Yeah man, you want to say that’s never going to happen,” he said.
“But I guess when the Cowboys are playing the New York Giants, and you go, ‘Well uh… uh today we have uh… uh, our number one game today as you well know, it’s this huge game between… uh… you know they are really doing good right now (mimicking someone telling him ‘Dallas’ off mic) Dallas!’ Yeah, you can see that you’re pretty much gone. That hasn’t happened yet. But, you know what, when you realize that the time has come, that’s a sad time.”
Despite being a beloved icon in the sport, the ex-Pittsburgh Steelers hero has been dealing with an onslaught of critics who have been blasting him for forgetting simple details on air, like team names, or just mumbling nonsense.
Terry Bradshaw Is Having Too Much Fun
Terry Bradshaw has been advised to end his broadcasting career, but the four-time Super Bowl champion has made his feelings clear about his job.
Every week, it becomes a reoccurring theme where fans demand that he hangs it up and retire from broadcasting.
Despite the mounting pressure from fans, Bradshaw expressed his joy with his job during an appearance on The Kelly Clarkson Show in October.
In response to a question from the first American Idol champion about whether he still enjoys his job, Bradshaw replied: “So much fun.”
“I’m one of those people that are lucky to go to work and can’t wait to get there. It’s so much fun to get up early as you, we work all day, we’re 12 hours in the studio working all the games throughout.” He added: “The people here in New York may see us do one show but we do 12.
