Worst Announcers in Sports

With the baseball season coming to a close, football in full swing, and the NBA about to tip off, it's time to discuss announcers. The bad, the ugly, and the terrible. The list is in no specific order; on who should be strangled with their head sets, and be buried on the side of the road.

Gross smiles
Joe Buck & Tim McCarver :
The worst tag team in the history of sports. The Dudley boys would go ape all over these panzy's. McCarver is so oblivious to real life and Joe Buck could not be more of a homer. If I hear McCarver give his input during the World Series on any crucial situation and just restate what's going on and leave it at that, then he should just go to a retirement home and call it a life. Buck has so many man crushes it's unbelievable and if the Cardinals lose, he drowns his sorrows at the bar with Fernando Tatis or someone like that.


Makes me hate the Yankees even more

John Sterling & Suzyn Waldman:
For such a successful ball club, you'd think they could hire people who weren't totally inept and senile. John Sterling misses more calls than Jim Joyce up there, miss-calling homeruns, catches, outs, the whole sha-bang. Suzyn Waldman is infamous for her freaking out about Roger Clemens return, just awful stuff out of these folks and it doesn't look like its going to get any better soon.



She's kinda hot...

Doris Burke:
I think Doris is kinda hot in like a weird way, especially with those glasses, but she's a god awful announcer. She knows nothing about men's basketball, and should probably stick to women's college ball. The games she does with Hubie Brown is like listening to a crazy old man ramble to his doctor about his colon or something. To be fair I love Hubie Brown, I think he knows a lot about the game and is so energetic, but when they're paired together its like watching a rec game.






Feel bad for JB
Phil Simms & Cris Collinsworth:
Two of the biggest blowhards in the announcing game. Simms talks about his kids too much and talks too little about what's actually going on in the game. Collinsworth talks too much about the game which is his problem because he's usually wrong and always has some dumb opinion. One was a stud player, and one wasn't, and the bum talks like he won a buncha Super Bowls, uhh not quite there CC.

Spider 3 Y Banana


John Gruden:
Does Gruden love every single player in NFL history. Guy goes on 10 minute rants about the back up long snapper being a great team player and a hard worker. Give it a rest, Johnny boy. Gruden does know a lot about football and was no doubt a great coach, but get out of the booth bro, you're making Tirico look bad and he's got a voice of gold. Frank Caliendo does a knock out impression of him, its crazy spot on.






"Aliens"
Jack Edwards:
If you've ever watched a Bruins game on NESN, it's probably the most painful experience of all time. Jack Edwards is not only the biggest homer in all of sports, but he's completely insane. Goes on rants about the American Revolution and rebelling against the queen, which he feels is comparable to playing the Canadiens, just a total douche.
