Chris Berman - not funny, at all!

Chris Collinsworth - snarky, thin skinned, and obnoxious.
Deion Sanders - I don't even know where to begin...he's the worst ever.
Michael Irvin - See, Deon Sanders
Phil Simms - Yawn, Mr. Obvious
Randy Cross - Moron!

The ones I like are:

Al Michaels
Nessler and Mayock
Tony Dungy
Howie Long
Terry Bradshaw
Jim Nance
Steve Mariucci
Marshall Faulk
Dan Marino

Honestly, they can do away with most if not all of the ESPN cast as well as NFL Network.
This!

I agree on Shannon Sharpe too, horrible.

I like Joe Buck, I'm luke warm over Aikman. I also like James Brown.
Do you like Dan Fouts?

What's wrong with Boomer Esiason? And also, Chris Berman, John Madden, and Shannon Sharpe, you don't like them do you?

Dan Dierdorf has retired. Did people miss all the programs on his career? As for the rest, I don't know. Commentators isn't an area I spend too much time dwelling on. You can always see what is happening. Many cases, you can mute the sound.

Me either because I turn the TV down and listen to Larry McCarren/Wayne Larrivee. McCarren is a former Packer and Larrivee well known for his years with WGN, Bears and Bulls.

McCarren calls Joe Buck and Troy Aikman Bert and Ernie which my dad told me.

Collinsworth is not a play-by-play announcer.

Dierdorf will be doing Wolverines football games on the radio starting this upcoming season with Jim Brandstatter.

Dick Enberg is a treasure.

He and Don Drysdale did the local broadcasts for the Rams and the Angels in the 70's. They were a terrific combination. The after-game interviews were not to be missed when Drysdale was asking the questions.
