Carrie Underwood, the former American Idol and 6-time Grammy winner, is going to be strutting into our living rooms every Sunday next season singing the SNF anthem "Waiting All Day For Sunday Night." “I am thrilled to be a part of NBC’s Sunday Night Football and am so honored they asked me,” said Underwood. “I have always loved football season, and it is so exciting to now become part of it every Sunday night!” Replacing someone like Faith Hill (so hot) was not going to be easy, but the network nailed it with Carrie Underwood (also so hot). And one last time for all you Faith fans...

That’s what I’m hearing. The announcement likely will come tomorrow. There’s also word going around that the new Sunday Night NFL theme singer will be Will. i. Am. Please be Carrie Underwood! Please Carrie Underwood! Haven’t the Black-Eyed Peas ruined enough: sporting events, weddings, dance clubs, life in general for long enough? NBC Sports will conduct a conference call tomorrow. There will be major announcement about a talent addition to Sunday Night Football. The announcement will come around 3pm CDT. Here’s the intro work of Faith Hill Faith Hill has been doing the NFL “waiting all day for Sunday night” theme on NBC ever since the peacock regained broadcast rights in 2006. Other than season, when Pink sung the theme. However, it’s “Faith No More” as Faith Hill won’t be doing the theme this fall. Will Carrie Underwood replace Faith Hill? We’ll find out tomorrow for sure. Paul M.

She has done a wonderful job, and will be missed. However, change can be a good thing....or a very bad thing. We are going to look at some odd and outrageous choices for her replacement.5. Tupac HologramWe start this list being financially aware. While paying out multi million dollar contracts yearly, maybe the NFL would like to save a few bucks. Granted the technology to create the hologram was reported at over 100K, but without knowing how much others have been paid to do it, perhaps this could be cost effective. But who doesn't want to hear Tupac yelling "Hail Mary" when a quarterback drops back for a long pass?4. Tim McGrawWhile not exactly an "outrageous" choice, this one could still be fun. Talk about your awkward family dinners. Can you imagine the martial rivalry this could cause? Maybe McGraw sings it "better" or is more well received, or maybe fans hate it and beg ...

Hill decided to opt out of another season on the primetime football broadcast and wants someone else to step in. Who should be the replacement? One thing is for certain, NBC is not going to go controversial for the opening. ABC recently canned Hank Williams Jr. from his legendary intro to Monday Night Football after making controversial statements and the network that sees ratings plummeting, is not going to hire a controversial person, regardless of talent. Adam Rank of NFL.com suggests that Katy Perry or Beyonce might be next in line, along with some other selections. Let’s nix those selections right off the bat. We’ve seen enough of the overexposed Beyonce and Katy Perry does nothing for me, nothing. I’d suggest that the network goes with someone along the lines of Carrie Underwood or Kelly Clarkson. Strong voices and they come without controversy. Although Ra...

That's because the immortal Faith "Legatron" Hill hypnotized male viewers worldwide with her pregame song and dance before announcing on Monday that she's stepping down.  As Hill wrote in an online goodbye message, it's time to let someone else "rock the open."  Said "open" will still sound relatively similar, according to Sunday Night Football producer Fred Gaudelli, who told Pro Football Talk on Monday that Waiting All Day for Sunday Night will remain in place with a new performer. Who might that new performer be? Who, pray tell, can do this justice...

The singer announced on her Facebook page that she was no longer going to be performing the famous intro calling it a "difficult" and "emotional" decision: Amazing 2 have been part of SNF - an honor. I've just let everyone there know it's time 2 let someone else rock the open. Difficult decision. Kinda emotional. Love all u guys at SNF - I'll b watching!!! There has yet to be announcement on who will replace her, but the network has stated that the song will remain the same.

It was announced this morning that Faith Hill will no longer be associated with NBC and the network will reach out to another singer to do the introduction for the 2013 season and beyond. Hill hit up Twitter, announcing the move this morning. “Amazing 2 have been part of SNF- an honor. I just let everyone there know it’s time to let someone else rock the open.” This comes as very disappointing news to the corporate headquarters of Thepigskinreport.com. For six years, we have watched Hill do the open of the broadcast. No official word as to whether this was a NBC decision or she just opted out, but here at TPR, we will be sad to see her go. In understand major networks are always rocking demographics and Hill is now 45, but she still has a monster voice and can rock those leather pants and/or those thigh high boots as well as she did two decades ago.

Hill became a familiar face to football fans singing her rendition of Joan Jett’s “Hate Myself For Loving You” switched around to “Waiting All Day For Sunday Night” in the introduction to Sunday Night Football. I expect the NFL to replace her with an equally stunning and popular artist. If it’s Taylor Swift I might have to find the nearest bridge to jump off, though. Faith Hill let fans know about her decision via Twitter: Amazing 2 have been part of SNF – an honor. I’ve just let everyone there know it’s time 2 let someone else rock the open. — Faith Hill (@FaithHill) April 15, 2013   Mon, 15 Apr 2013 13:41:51 -0400 http://network.yardbarker.com/all_sports/article_external/faith_hill_leaving_sunday_night_football/13403536 http://network.yardbarker.com/all_sports/article_external/faith_hill_leaving_sunday_night_football/13403536 Faith Hill leaving “Sunday Night Football” http://www.yardbarker.com/all_sports/articles/faith_hill_leaving_sunday_night_football/13403536 http://www.yardbarker.com/media/7/5/75ee4c7c53e3255863bccad4c122710159e07b22/mini/super-bowl-xliii-arizona.jpg In news that is sure to crush fans across the country, Faith Hill will no longer serve as the singer in the opening of NBC's Sunday Night Football, a role she's held since 2007. Hill apparently left the gig on her own accord, but the specifics behind her decision are unknown. Despite Hill being synonymous with the opening, she actually hasn't been the singer for the opening for the entire SNF run, as Pink was the singer for the 2006 debut season on NBC. Hill took over a season later, and has been rather beloved since. It'll be interesting to see who NBC gets to replace her, and whether or not the "Waiting All Day for Sunday Night" song remains with the new vocalist, or if NBC opts for a full rebrand after Hill made the song her own in recent years.

The country star announced Monday morning on Twitter that she won't be doing the ''Sunday Night Football'' theme song this year. She's been featured at the top of the broadcast for six years now. Hill says in her tweet it's been an honor to appear on the NBC show, but that it's time to ''let someone else rock the open. Difficult decision. Kinda emotional.'' ''Sunday Night Football'' executive producer Fred Gaudelli tweeted ''great love and appreciation'' to Hill for her participation over the years. He made no mention of what the show plans to do with the opening.

My suggestion would be Jordin Sparks, I could see them going with an Alicia Keys.  if they were really feeling in the mood to do something a wild, Rihanna could be in the mix. Just something new and fresh, I beg of them.

However, her time with the Peacock Network has come and gone. On Monday, Hill announced on her Facebook page that she's parted ways with SNF, calling it a "difficult" and "emotional" decision. "Amazing 2 have been part of SNF - an honor. I've just let everyone there know it's time 2 let someone else rock the open. Difficult decision. Kinda emotional.
