[Jon88]

I can't stand Marino, Theisman, Sharpe, Deion, Ditka, the Gumbels, and Moose as an announcer, not a person or player, obviously (hate his voice and lack of sense of humor.)

Joe Buck annoys me but not nearly as much as the above folks.

I like several of the people others hate: Dukes, Simms, Kornheiser and Collingsworth.

On edit: Add in Mel Kiper and the insufferable Dick Vitale.

I would rather hear nails on a chalkboard than Moose's voice.

Babe Ruth

Calvin Watkins and Joe Buck. They suck so much!

 

[Chief]

Ron Jaworski -- Constantly feels the need to remind viewers that he once played, injecting himself into any highlight or viewpoint. His face is so fat, his eyes close when he spreads that disgusting grin across his pear-shaped head. This is a true quote from him during an ESPN pre-game show: "When I played, we went down to Dallas and opened a can of you-know-what."

Joe Theezman -- ESPN finally canned his sorry *** many years too late. Joe, you're not handsome, you're not funny, you're not smart. You suck.

Sterling Sharpe -- For crying out loud, quit yelling. We can hear you. We're not deaf. He's also a big-time hypocrite. Wouldn't talk to the media when he was a player, then when his overrated career ended, he jumped in and joined them.

Calvin Watkins -- A "sports writer" who can't write. Good thing blogs were invented. He doesn't have to write more than a few sentences every couple of days.

Most of the DMN Cowboys beat staff -- Atrocious.

Joe Buck -- Used to like him, but he's morphing into a 12-year-old girl. He'll be one of Aikman's daughters in a couple more years.

Chris Berman -- Used to like him, too, until his ego went out of control and his blow-hard schtick got old. He's also married to the 49ers, although the Bills were his mistress during much of the 1990s.

Dale Hansen -- Big, bellowing whiner. Go away.

Jen Floyd-Engel -- Once wrote some pretty good feature stories on Cowboys players, then embraced her inner hate. A decent writer who thought she could become a columnist. It didn't work. She sucks. Now, she's like many former good newspaper people who have turned into circus acts (see Skip Bayless) to try to get a rise out of people.

How or why Keith Obermann is doing anything but flipping burgers, let alone being involved with anything "sports" is beyond me................

He's a classic "never played the game" noodle. I think his "sports" pedigree has something to do with a baseball card collection. He's got a chip on his shoulder akin to the ugly-girl in school syndrome. You know, the women who now run the N.O.W. Their making up for being dismissed and snubbed their whole life and not going to the prom. Obermann was the H.S. geek who wanted to play football, couldn't, so he played the Tuba in the Marching Band. And resented not getting to go to the cool frat parties or hand with the dolls.

That's why he crashes every Manhattan cocktail party he can. He's never invited, but they tolerate him because he's on the TV.

He was a total idiot on ESPN when he got started. He's a tailor made Uber-Left psychotic gutter-sniper on PMSNBC. He contributes nothing to NBC Football except for being the studio Dick.

I won't watch any pre-game or halftime or post-game NBC stuff as long as this clown exists. He never has an original thought or comment. He just recites what he reads on the Huffington Post, or the latest liberal web-site-talking-point machine. Including whatever garbage falls out of his pie-hole about NFL football.

Stuart Scott. He epitomizes all that is wrong with ESPN.

For what its worth, I love Barry Melrose in the little air time he gets.

 

[Boyzmamacita]

For you old-timers, remember Brent Musburger when he covered the NFL on CBS back in the 70s/80s? He was a Cowboy hater supreme. My God he hated the Dallas Cowboys with all his heart. Making it worse was the fact that Jayne Kennedy and Phyllis George were all over the Cowboys jock week after week. Musburger was such a hater that one year when the Cowboys were struggling, he referred to them as "this last place team down here." He was even upset when NFL Today did a piece on the DCC's USO Tour. Musburger's face turned red with anger because of a damned cheereader story. Pathetic and highly unprofessional. I realize that broadcasters are human, but I really don't give a damn whether or not they like a team. And if they can't leave that at home, maybe they should find another profession.

Man, that's a beautiful rant.

Matt Millen

 

[RoadRunner]

Keith Olberman - why is this political mud slinger even involved in NFL broadcasts? Get him off my set or I won't watch the game he is involved with (unless its Dallas).

Meshawn - world's biggest hypocrit.

Tony Kornheiser - most annoying.

I don't mind Collingsworth and Dukes...the rest I think are atrocious...you can add Joe Buck, Skip Bayless and does Bryant Gumble still count?

Add Millen to the list.
What makes him think he's worthy?
He was sitting next to Dungy and Holmgren....

What?
