Russillo said this, and now I notice it all the time. Tirico will do the thing that everybody on earth does, which is you start to say something the wrong way, and then you and I (and other broadcasters) back up a word or two to correct it. Tirico doesn't do that. Tirico just keeps going forward and seamlessly finds a way to make the slip-up correct. It's incredible.

Man, I made that ranking almost 9 years ago. My thoughts have changed slightly since then.

Mike Shannon for the Cardinals. Grew up listening to him on KMOX.

His last year was rough though.

John Ward, the Peyton Manning of broadcasting.

Dandy Don Meredith for NFL.

Tim Priest.

Beisbol: Dizzy Dean n Peewee Reese.

Soccer: Taylor Twellman and Julie Foudy

I would say the ones that I most despise, but told the missus I would try to be less negative.
