Gary Thorne is the king of suck, his loyal subjects are Sterling and Kay!

I actually enjoy Tom Seaver because he is hall of famer and unlike Joe ASS LICK Morgan, knows when to make a point and when to watch the game.

Bob Murphy really should hang 'em up, as should Ralph Kiner(who only played for 10 years because he injured his back and didn't want to play below his expected level, yet keeps announcing 3 years after half his face went numb)

I'm think you're gonna have to suck it!

Barry Melrose SUUUUUUCKS! He thinks he knows everything. If he knew everything about hockey, then why wasn't he a better player? Those that can do, those that can't announce. During the 95' Cup he said that the Devs didn't have a chance against the Wings... after the Devils won he said, "I knew they would surprise everyone." What a DEEK!

Bill Walton and Bob Costas = worse than AIDS.

Costas just irritates the bejesus out of me... espcially while calling basketball. His baseball color is pretty shameless too. Rarely has anything interesting to say, he's whiney (as exemplified by the Vince Mcmahon interview) and downright irritating. Oh yeah... fuck Jim Gray too. I wish Pete Rose cracked him one upside the head when he had the opportunity.

Best, on the other hand.... Marv, John Madden, Thomson, and although he's silly as hell, Walt Clyde has got to be one of the most entertaining announcers ever. Slice and Dice, post and toast, swish and dish, hustle but not the muscle. That guy cracks me up. SWISS CHEESE/MATADOR D!

Even though I am a huge Devils fan, I CAN'T STAND Stan Fischler. I'm a fan, but also objective, and according to him, no Devil ever does anything wrong, and no calls ever go our way. It's sickening to listen to him. Also - I can't look at Matt Loughlin without hearing him do play by play of our high school football and baseball games for TV3 in the late '80's. He sucked back then too.

Emerick is perhaps the best announce in hockey. Thorne ain't too bad.

Worst annoucer of all time if Bob (I Know Everything, and you don't, so worship me) Costas

Seaver sucks as well.....Fischler knows his shit..but he too is an arrogant ass

I absolutely hate this bitch ! Or is it BUTCH ?

She is such a wannabee, guy that is...

The roving reporter with the Yankees who brings squat/zero in terms of good little tidbits. But being one of a few, she'll be around for as long as she wants ... it's sharp nails on a chalkboard when I hear her...

The most passionate announcer is Andres Cantor ! I love his 1 1/2 Goooooooooooooooooooooool !

As far as the player-turned-play-by-play. I reason I mentioned it is because most of time when someone who was never associated with the sport you never expect them to be any good. Mike Emerick is a major major exception. Come on, he's teamed up Chico Resuch, and he's a complete moron.

Gary Throne I love. Expect he was annoying me during the finals last year. During the OTs in Game 5 and 6 on almost every shot (except the one that actually won the Cup by Arnott) he said "And this is for the Cup!! NO!" or "***insert name here*** is on a breaking away to win the Cup!" pissed me off to no end and might I add it pretty much jinxed them during Game 5.

BTW, does anyone know the 2nd-string (as ESPN puts it) commentators on ESPN (not ABC because that's Emerick and Melrose) Hockey behind Throne and Clement?? He does games with Darren Pang with did the second half of the Eastern Conference Finals last year. Because his voice annoys me and I'm very glad that the guys who made the Devils Championship Video didn't include his call during Game 7, it included Mike Miller's.

Stan Fischler is one of the most annoying people ever ever on TV. I'm sorry but I really don't care about his opinions. And he is not loyal Devil. He is loyal whatever team he is analyising on what station.

As far as Matt Loughlin is concerned he is a dipshit. I don't mind his pre-game because I never watch it. LOL or when I do it's just to kill time before the game. But when he does commentary I want to shoot myself. He is the worst play-by-play announcer I ever heard.

But seriously who doesn't laugh they everytime Matt and the Maven get into an arguement (sarcasim).

Well, here's where I'm glad to say thank God for Fox. NBC is not going to brodcast the ALCS next year or any other year for about 5 or 6 years. Thank God for that. Because Bob Costas is sooo bad. He has no energy, no spontinaity, nothing. He tries to be a reporter instead of a sportscaster. This is just another reason why I don't watch the NBA.

But seriously in all honesty do you think the most memorable calls were written down and throught of for hours and days in advance?? NO! They said in the moment and at that time. Any fan in any sport will agree with me on that.

Every time I hear Tim McCarver's drawl I want to take a pencil and jam it into my ear. If it wasn't for the research department he'd have nothing to say. He throws out players high school batting averages and other worthless facts.

I must say that I'm with Eddie Haskell on this one, I was reading through this thread without getting overly worked up until I saw that woman's name. Every suckhole that calls in to her show tells her how great she is, they must do some call screening job. She is one of the most biased announcers I've ever heard. Please note that I am a Yankee fan. Her smugness in regards to her inside knowledge of the Yankee operation is rivaled only by Fat Francesa's.

100% agreed about Waldman. When I used to listen to the FAN, I avoided her show at all costs. And I would turn Mike and the Mad Dog off when she did her stupid Yankee reports with them. What an annoying cunt.
