Oh, I am with you. McCarver may well be the worst. Who on earth does he think he is fooling with that dye job anyway.

I thought Chris Berman's name game was somewhat amusing when I was in college, but that was 20 years ago and he's doing the same act! It's like with knock knock jokes-- the first three or four in a row may be amusing, but after that it starts to get old fast.

i guess i don't see him enough to get sick of him, I hate Joe Buck, does that count for anything?

Dick Vitale acts like a 7 year old class clown.

I never understood that Tony Kornheiser either... biggest idiot ever on Monday night football.

I agree. My dad thinks he is the worst. I don't think there should ever be three announcers. Two announcers can say all there is to be said, and there's nothing left but irrelevant stuff for the third. On MNF the third is often there to act like comic relief (See Dennis Miller).

To me the whole thing is that with the advent of ESPN and 24 hour sports and sports-dedicated channels the hosts/announcers/talking heads now consider themselves to be a part of the story and the entertainment. How else do you explain things like the ESPYs? Let's create a meaningless award so we can put ourselves on TV. Hey the sheep have lapped it up and the reporters have become the news. I have no use for any of them really.
