ESPN Announcers

[yankee]

There are several ESPN sportscasters that seem to piss people off pretty badly.Howeva, explain why.



Boo ya.

[dragonfootballfan]

This is way too close to call for me.

How can anyone hate Berman or May? That is beyond me.

[BAMF cowboy]

[Tut]

Should have had "all of the above".
Berman is the "most" obnoxious to my ears.

[dragons08]

'bumblin stumblin rumblin dsjfaslkdfjn athakjsdhtfkjdn tahdtkjan TD"

FIrst off, whether you like it or not, Chris Berman IS the face of ESPN. I get annoyed with him too, but he means so much to the network.

Steven A. I can tolerate sometimes when he's not pulling a Scoop Jackson and makin everything a racial issue.

Mark May...meh, I'm uneven on this one.

That leaves us with Lazy Eyed Stuart Scott. His catchphrases are so 1997, and he hasn't come up with anything new in 5 years. No one takes him seriously, and I think he's just gotten lazy and complacent the last few years. So I voted Stu.

This is the main reason I don't watch ESPN anymore except for actual games.

[CLFalcon2006]

He's not an analyst but the guy i hate the most on espn or sports reporting for that fact is Bill Plashke. Blah Blah Blah, California is the center of the world blah blah blah Kobe didnt touch that girl that girl framed Kobe, blah blah blah I don't care that we saw the greatest performance by a qb in history probably, it was USC that lost that game.

I can not stand him

oh yeah on ATH

i cant stand that JA Adande dude either

[CLFalcon2006]

Yeah, I made it a point to watch ATH the day after the Rose Bowl just to hear Plashke make up his new load of BullS**t. At first it was funny but the stuff he said eventally got me really ticked. I'm glad he was the first elemintation.

Then PTI afterwards, Kornheiser was riding USC's collective D's for the past month (hell all year) and then he starts the show by saying

"Hello all my Texas brothers, last night we did it!"

I don't know if he was joking or not, but watching all the espn guys jump from one bandwagon to another has been funny and frustarating.

agreed

[dragons08]

espn has gone from GREAT to Crap within 2 years..the whole 'makeover' thing it seems..their trying to be 'cool'..do all the media stuff and just try to make the most people happy

[farmerfan]

DO8, You're to young to remember when Berman used to be the main anchor in sports center or lead baseball tonight. There were plenty of times when he would call 2-3 games a week during baseball season on ESPN. He was the narrator during all the ESPY categories leading up to the first show and was a fixture for a long long time on ESPN. He has earned the right ot just be on once a week while stil remaining the face of ESPN.

The two I miss the most are the big show combo of Dan Patrick and Keith Olberman. They are back on the radio together and I wish they would come back to sportscenter but that is highly unlikely.

I enjoyed sportcenter back then. It had more substance without trying to outdo each other with "cuteness".

[AZTiger]

The golden era of SC was Patrick, KO, Craig Kilborn, etc. Kenny Mayne is absoutely hilarious, but I hated him paired with Stu Scott. Bob Ley and Charlie Steiner were also good.

D08...you are too young to remember ESPN back in the 80s and early 90s, Berman was it, and people loved him.

I also have a friend who thinks Linda Cohn is hot...makes me wanna puke

[dragons08]

yeah Dan Patrick, Kenny Mayne, were hillarious..

what happend to kevin frazier? i liked him, he delivered as is and didnt add all that crap they add now a days

Hes an actor now. He was in Juanna Man (yeah i never heard of it either) and that dumb CBS made for tv movie Cat 7: End of the World. I think he does alot of stuff with Enertainment Tonight.

that Cat 7 movie was good..i liked it


Juanna Man..that sounds retarted

[slorch]

I don't care for Stu Scott or Stephen A(weful)Jackson either.

Skip Bayless- such a chump. Reports his opinion as if it's news. as well as incorrectly reporting "news"

[TexasRed6x]

Stu Scott. All I have to say to you is you don't have to go home but you have to get the heck up out of here. Holla at me son and Boo Ya.

[BigArab]

I'll watch ESPN because it doesn't have Cris Collingsworth on it. I can't stand that guy. However, the secondATH starts up, I just change channels. I hate listening to all those people be wishy washy so they can win a make believe game show (and win nothing because of it). As strange as Woody is, he's really the only one who tells it like it is and he never ever wins. I can't stand the host either. Who died and named that 25 year old punk sports guru?

tony reali is the host of ath. i actually think its cool, having a younger guy in there to counter those old buffoons.

[Slim-Rob]

I like The Best Damn Sports Show Period, is that on ESPN or FSN?

[jtk1519]

I voted for Mark May because he takes suck to a level surpassed only by BlowU and their QB with the billboard forehead, but this poll is really useless without including John Saunders in the bunch. What he did to Pedophile Mexico and Virginia Tech on TV last season should have received a "TV-MA" rating and hefty fines from the FCC.

Here we see the aforementioned Saunders being pwn3d on stage at the Rose Bowl...

John Saunders grew up in Toronto,Canada.......and played hockey in college.
What the hell does he know about football?
