As a fan of NFL coverage on FOX, this guy appreciates Erin Andrews. Her sideline insight into injuries, team tactics and player personalities really helps Joe Buck and Troy Aikman out, and it's not hard to see why FOX thought she'd be great on SmackDown.

Still, she doesn't know much about WWE's product. That was clear when Erin said Kofi Kingston (then the WWE Champ) was challenging Brock Lesnar for the title. This could be an issue with FOX's influence going forward. If they're going to draft in real sports talking heads, they must make sure they're informed.
