Many are currently more intrigued by George's free-agent status, even if it will be great to watch him hone his analyst skills on the biggest stage of the game.

Even while it will be amazing to witness George polish his analyst abilities on the largest stage of the game, many are currently more intrigued by his free-agent status.
