these days i like troy aikman and chris collinsworth. both were players that understand the game well, and keep up on current players. they also are capable color commentators.
So why all the hate all the time about sportscasters?
Are there any that are never blasted?
With so many threads it would seem that almost ever sportscaster must have been mentioned by someone at sometime.
Or are there a few that stand out and are above the fray?
because it's not good enough to hate just on the players and coaches, we must also find fault with the people sitting in the broadcast booth describing the players we hate. Personally, I think most of the cameramen, sound technicians and blimp pilots are doing horrible jobs too
Did you see the camera work in that last S'hawks game?! I mean it was ridiculous! haha
The reason for the hate, love, or whatever, is we have to listen to these people for hours whist watching games we enjoy. You are going to get scrutinized as much, or more, than the players. You show bias and people are going to notice. Everything they say is being listened to and does carry weight. Most of the folks do a good job. You enjoy the game and move on. The bad ones grate on the nerves and makes games not enjoyable. That's bad. Sport is meant to be fun, enjoyable, period.

I agree with you here. I actually really enjoy the Michaels/Collinsworth combo on SNF.
MLB: I enjoyed John Smoltz throughout the World Series. I am neutral on Joe Buck, and don't hate him quite like most people seem to.
NFL: I like the Al Michaels/Chris Collinsworth combo.
NHL: I live in an area that gets CBC. I really like Bob Cole, there is just something classic about his delivery. I also think Jim Hughson does a good job.
