    One guy I really liked that used to do Brewers games was Matt Vasgersian. He always did a good job making even the most boring, lop-sided game somewhat entertaining. He left us after 2001, I think I heard somewhere he's with the Padres now. I'll have to try to catch some of their games on MLBTV this year if he is with them.

    Bob Uecker is great too. Too bad he just broadcasts locally, alot of people don't get to hear him call a game.

    Vasgergian was awesome, just awesome. Anyone who can make Brewers games watchable, much less entertaining like Matt did is a great announcer. Uecker is a legend, best radio man in the biz. Vin Scully does a great job with LA games, I like to watch them on MLB Exra Innings.

    My favorite has to be the Jerry Remy/Don Orsillo combo for Boston though, very good announcing, good mix of humor.

    Also the YES Network announcers are just plain awful. It's hard to watch Yankee games already, but with those clowns in the booth, it's close to unbearable. If not for my intense hatred to the Yankees, I wouldn't be able to stomach it.

    One more thing, the White Sox announcers that do the "You can put it on the booooard...YES!" deserve some mentioning. GREAT home run call. They also always refer to the White Sox as the "Good Guys."

      The White Sox crew would be better if they got rid of Darren Jackson, the guy has no personality, he is just dull, Harrelson not bad, but they were better when it was Harrelson and Tom Paciorek.

            Nothing was as good as Harry Caray, especially about the 6th inning or so when he was lit. I distinctly remember a Cubs/Astros game years back tied in the 9th inning. Bagwell hits a bomb, and Harry slurs, "Oh, Christ it's gone".

            Classic.
