I would beg to differ that Sports Announcing/DJ's/Talk Show hosting doesn't require "rare skills".
Not everbody can think on their feet for long stretches of time. You have to be able to entertain, inform, sound good, think quickly, and be concise, while having a mastery of the English language. On top of all that, do it night after night while keeping your enthusiasm flying by the seat of your pants.
We don't allow DJ's anymore to be creative, they now all do talk shows. Still, it takes considerable skill to sound excited when you have talked about the same issue for 3 hours or 3 days, or to hear that 50 cent song twice a shift, six days a week.
