Answering al your Super Bowl 50 questions, such as, “What Channel is Super Bowl 50 on?”

Buckle up, baby birds, because Super Bowl 50 is on the horizon. We’re creeping up towards kickoff for the golden anniversary of the league’s golden goose.

For those fans of America’s Network, well pop a little bubbly and toss some confetti because CBS will be broadcasting Super Bowl 50. That’s right, friends, you’ll be blessed with the golden pipes of Jim Nance guiding you through the most important game of the season. It also means you’ll get plenty of Phil Simms, meaning the “talk about” drinking game is in full play. We also get the perfect sideline reporting acumen from Tracy Wolfson. But then again, you’ll have to deal with Mike Carey’s concepts of what good refereeing should be. Really, it’s a mixed bag.

What would’ve been an interesting take is if CBS and NBC simulcasted the game. Super Bowl I was the only Super Bowl to be dually broadcast, and it would’ve been a cool throwback to see a replication of that. Then again, it’s a billion dollar industry, and there’s no way Le Moonves and Sean McManus would’ve ever given up sole ownership. And who could blame them.

So enjoy the wild ride from Super Bowl 50. CBS tends to have great production of events, and this will likely be no different.
