Who's your LEAST favorite sports broadcaster/commentator?

[Pancake Bandit]

ESPN is especially guilty of churning out more obnoxious half-wit commentators than almost anyone.

My top 3, in no particular order:

Stuart "Left Eye" Scott
Chris Berman
Skip Bayless

 

[Damion704]

Ed Cunningham

You hate Chris Berman and Stuart Scott?

 

[Pancake Bandit]

You hate Chris Berman and Stuart Scott?

Gotta be honest -- Yes, I definitely do.

For me anyway, Berman is just so unbelievably obnoxious that it drives me nuts. I honestly can't stand him.

At the same time, though, the guy is more knowledgable than almost anyone, so I realize why others like him so much. But to me anyway -- I'm probably his least biggest fan, haha.

Whats wrong with Stuart Scott then? lol

I passionately hate Joe Buck as an announcer.

 

[HereComeTheIrish]

Tom Hammond and that huge azz moon sitting on top of his shoulders... I've actually heard that the nonsense that spews from his lips actually affects the tides around eastern coastal cities. True story.

 

[NDOM]

1) D i c k Vitale!
2) Bill Walton!
3) Tom Hammond!

1. Tom Hammond
2. Steven A. Smith
3. Skip Bayless

 

[irishtrain]

Agree with every name mentioned and even include Herbstreit, Paul Finebaum, and Musberger. But down thru the years it had to be Keith Jackson for this reason-these other guys are just wanna be imps or impressionists. Jackson had power and he used it for his preferences. Meaning Alabama/southern cal.

 

[returnofthemack]

Oh lord I forgot about Stephen A. Smith. I'll also throw in Jemele Hill. They're both awful

 

[RyCo1983]

You hate Chris Berman and Stuart Scott?

I must agree on the Berman HATE. Scott pales in comparison but still gets the HATE.

 

[choo choo]

cunningham
musberger
hammond

 

[BobD]

There should be a word lower than LEAST to describe my opinion of him, he sucks:

The only way to make it through a game he's calling.

 

[MacIrish75]

Jay Mariotti. I took a personal day to celebrate when he got sh*tcanned on Around the Horn.

I also personally loathe Jason Whitlock.

 

[greyhammer90]

Jason Whitlock is trash

 

[Irish Insanity]

Cowherd. Not sure he fits the original question, but I can't ****in stand that guy.

 

[tadman95]

Berman. He was good until he started believing his own hype.

Musberger. Has lost his touch, needs to retire.

Hammond. Never had his touch.

Most of ESPN........

 

[pkt77242]

Craig James

 

[AdmiralBackhand]

Gary Danielson and Verne Lundquist

Thank you! Haha.

When he talks, he sounds like he's being choked to death or something.

 

[NDMontana]

Depends on when you're asking this question:
Right now, I hate Musberger because he hates Notre Dame and that's something that he has admitted, made no bones about it.

From April-November, I hate Tim McKarver most. He's awful and arrogant. His partner, Buck, runs a close second.

I don't watch the NBA normally but on the rare occassion when I do, I can't stand Bill Walton.

 

[ACamp1900]

I passionately hate Joe Buck as an announcer.

Joe seems like a great guy... I like HIM... hate his coverage... SO BORING.

Chris Berman has definately lost his charm, especially now that these videos keep coming out of him being a total *** off camera

 

[arrowryan]

Nobody mentioned Jim Nantz and Phill Simms? I cant stand them, I almost have to mute the tv most of the time. They are clearly Patriot homers and thats the worst part about them

 

[GreatGolson]

Chris Berman.....during the Homerun Derby.... BACK BACK BACK BACK BACK BACK BACK BACK BACK BACK BACK BACK BACK BACK BACK BACK BACK BACK BACK BACK BACK BACK BACK BACK BACK BACK

 

[gkIrish]

Joe Buck/McCarver
Gary Danielson
Dana from First Take, especially since that Drunken ND hatred
