Chris Collingsworth I can't stand him, he thinks he knows everthing and he wasn't even that good of a NFL player and this guy is supposed to replace Madden!!!!!!!
Howard Eskin (philly radio host) maybe my most hated boradcaster of alltime. Can't stand him becuase this guy talks show much sh** it makes me want to punch him threw the radio if I could. He always talks about New York sports and he's from and his radio show is in philly, but I guess thats because philly sports suck and they have nothing to talk about down their in Philly. What does he know about sports anyway he's a philly sports fan and they have no sports history, you got to win some rings in the major sports to say you have a history ( yeah so you won the world series last year its about time philly won something and this dosen't change the fact the phillies are the 1st team in all the major sports NFL,NBA,NHL,MLB to loose 10,000 games. Good Job phillies). He never gives any teams credit that win and always makes an arguement how every team gets lucky. I really wish he would voice his negative views of New York sports in Queens at Citi Feild at a Mets Game so we can teach him a Queens "School of Hard Knocks" lesson. I promise he will leave a Mets fan after the game. However, I don't think he has ever been to New York!!!!! He's to soft to deal with a New Yorker maybe in Philly " the city of brotherly love" but not New York. No Way!!!!!
All day long he talks tough on the radio, taking calls and being tough with the callers a clear radio tough guy!!I even heard that in his own city in Philly at the Phillies games, when he stands up and he is recongized (not that he's a famous sports radio broadcaster, he is far from that) he gets booed by the crowd!!!!HA HA HA !!!!!!
I never thought I would ever had anything in common with a phillies fan, but I guess everbody hates him. Because I know I do!!!!!!
For 1 season he was in the booth and his voice was live on T.V. and even his face on Monday night football. Monday night football fried him after only his 1st season.
He did know anything about football he tried to make jokes about players and the game and he wasn't even funny or good at comedy. Now he's on the fox news channel once and a while trying to talk politics. Why does he just not go away!!!!
Rush Limbaugh was on ESPN for a very short while. He to didn't know anything about sports. He also said Mcnabb was getting to much credit because he was black. Shortly after his comment he got fired and I don't even think he lasted a season, and then he went to rehab for his addiction for pills. Now a days he is another republican and makes crazy comments about the U.S. on his radio show and dosen't even know what the hell is going on in the country. Pop some more pills Rush!!!!
maybe the worst broadcaster of alltime and he had a very short career!!!!
John Madden-Mr obvious and His favre man crush made him unbearable.
Chris Berman-Him and his nicknames he makes for the players are unbearble.
Bob Costas-He gets on my nerves. He always mispronounces countries names during the olympics too. He makes the olympics unbearable
Al Michaels-He belonged next to that annoying jerk Madden because both of them on sunday night gave all of us a hint on what NOT to watch. His commentary makes the game unbearable
Andy Gray-His love for Steven Gerrad ruins his commentary...He also really hates most of the teams. He is unbearable
Richard Keys-Truly horrible...makes sky sports unbearable.
Cris Collinsworth-Prick. Dosent he have the most annoying pompous nasal voice? He laughed at the falcons defense when they lost in the playoffs last year...He along with Michaels will keep sunday night football unwatchable. He is truly unbearable.

I pretty much dislike any announcer that cannot pronounce anything. Also any really boring announcer. Even when he was in his 30's, Vin Scully made me fall asleep on the couch.
We've done this before but Jeff Van Gundy is the worst, IMO. He adds no interesting commentary, makes useless and unfunny jokes, and shouts in a high voice to get his worthless point across. What's worse is that most people actually like his commentary.
Joe Buck is as dull as an old steak knife, and his MLB on Fox partner, McCarver is just a broken record.
