Isn't Billy Packer unemployed? That makes about as much sense as me being on the list.

The list could be upside down and make sense for me with who's at #50.

And Jenn Sterger is definitely not the worst at anything.

Where's Dr. Jap on this list?

Well, ever since Hatcher was put on LTIR, someone else had to be his bitch.

CU Tiger · 02-01-2009, 07:00 PM

The fact that Bob Davies isnt number 1 let alone even on the list makes this entire list unreliable

Honestly, I had no idea he was doing Chiefs games. I wondered where he was this NFL season. I just thought he did random CBS NFL games, he used to do alot of Jet games prior to this season.

I just like him alot, maybe I'm just a biased Jets and Nets fan.

GoDukes · 02-03-2009, 05:29 AM

Gus Johnson on a worst list?

People might not like Walton, but he isn't afraid to talk reality.

Lame list.

Don't understand how Mark May is not on this list.

Dr. Sak · 02-03-2009, 08:50 AM

No one listens when Mark May speaks. It's like listening to the teacher from the Cartoon Peanuts...Wahh wahh wha whaa. He says nothing relevant...ever.

Shannon Sharpe.

I can't believe he has lasted this long. Talks like he has a mouth full of shit.

Whitesox dude, the Hawk. Seriously how anyone can listen to this guy is beyond me.

He's the only guy I actually had to put a game on mute. Just about any game I watch I secretly hope he's not one of the announcers.

RE: Keith Jackson.

I forgot to quote who posted about him, but he's had some great one liners in his career to where I can't imagine him being on a worst list.

jbergey22 · 10-16-2011, 12:11 PM

I dont really pay much attention to Musberger as an announcer. Probably means I dont mind him as the ones I really notice are the ones I cant stand.

However, when he would start out the CBS pregrame, " You are now looking live from ...... " it was classic. He could really set up the moment.

How in the world did you find this thread?

CrimsonFox · 10-16-2011, 05:31 PM

I would still put Harry Carey at #1

I don't even comprehend how John Gruden doesn't make that list.

(And I'm a fan of Gruden as a coach.)

That list was made a couple months before Gruden started broadcasting, for whatever it's worth.

Drake · 10-17-2011, 02:13 PM

Well, that explains it to everybody except ESPN...who I noticed today signed him to a 5 year extension.

I hope that means ESPN has decided to buy a pro football team and decided to lock up their coach early. Surely they don't mean to keep him on MNF for the next five years.

JediKooter · 10-17-2011, 03:14 PM

As long as they don't put Deion or Michael Irvin in the booth, I can live with Gruden.

I was at the OU/texas game this year, milling about outside the Cotton Bowl and drinking a State Fair beer way too early in the morning. At one point a golf cart approaches and kind of waits for people to clear a path and the police to let them through. Turns out it is Brent Musberger. I point him out and my friend unleashes a "you are loooookinnnng live." Brent looks right back at us and points and gives us an official Brent Musberger "you are looking live." It was cool...at least to me.

bulletsponge · 10-17-2011, 03:43 PM

i hate dan dierdorf, he can ruin any game.

He went to Northwestern.

Best Howard Cosell and Cris Collinsworth.

The list is far too deep. They are getting real nitpicky when they rip on Gus Johnson for being excitable while #1 on their list is Billy Packer.

Yes, yes. I'm really beginning to dig Collinsworth lately. He's got enough credibility that I believe his analysis, and he's just arrogant enough about his approach to be stimulating.

Very nice pipes too

frnk55 · 10-18-2011, 05:15 PM

What is so wrong with John Miller to make the list?
I'm not saying he's great but don't mind listening to him.

I can't stand Glen Mason on the BTN football shows.
