    Booger MacFarland has been atrocious on MNF so far. Joe Buck would be my answer though since he has had decades of practice and still blows

    Disagree. I like Buck and Collinsworth. I don't think Joe Buck ever played the game, but I loved Collinsworth as a player. Yeah, I'm old enough to have watched him play.

    The most annoying announcers are women and old men that stay too long. Pat Summerall is a good example. He was a great announcer but he stayed around about 3 years too long. He kept making too many mistakes that younger announcers wouldn't make.

    John Madden recognized he was too old and he got out in time. Maybe a year or so too late, but not too bad.

    Chick Hearn, Vin Scully, Bob Miller - L.A. announcers will forever be the best.

    I even remember Joe Torre doing color on Angels games. He was pretty good.

    Collinsworth is a bit of a weenie,but I wouldn't say he's the worst ive heard.

    I like Al Micheals,he still does a decent job,Jim Nantz is pretty good to.

    Matt Millen - Not even CLOSE! The suits finally realized how horrendous he was and demoted him, then finally shitcanned him. Now at Big 10 Network. He came across as such a pompous, know it all - Hard to get away with that attitude after you were GM for an 0-16 season... Excruciating to listen to this jackass!

    Con-
    JoeBuck - Because he's Joe Buck
    Joe Davis - Dodgers and Fox football sounds like a boring Michigan farmer.
    Jessica Mendoza - annoying know-it-all
    Beth Mowins - No credibility in an NFL booth

    Pro-
    On the other hand, I really enjoy Chris Spielman.
    He is so insightful reading the tells of QBs, Wide Receivers and O Linemen.
    Really gives you an understated vision of the game thru the eyes of a knowledgeable professional.

    Whats his name? I forget some of these names.

    Dick Vitale is the worst College hoops color guy in the biz. No insight, and just exclaims,"that's awesome BABY!! He's annoying.

    NFL - Collingsworth and Buck are garbage .
    Jackson comes in 4 plays last night , not remotely close to throwing a single pass when CC claims "Now we're seeing a 2 QB rotation by the Ravens ". Fukkin what ?
    Buck , please just go back to baseball , at least he has somewhat of a clue there although still hard to listen to .
    This is exactly why the media and announcers are trash .
    CBB - Vitale
    I cannot watch a game he is doing , just over the top yelling "Baby" every so often .

    CC is good in my opinion.

    Most annoying Sean McDonough, Bob Costas wannabe.
    Take away Sean's stat sheets you know what you get?
    3 hours of dead air.

    He offers no insight, just where a player was born, stats, etc.

    They tried to get him back, and he said no, he wanted to do nothing. Isn't he married to some actress/reality star?
