I can't stand him becuase he talks over the action and instead of dropping inside info he just sits there and says canned cliched sayings

He talks entirely too much, and he always seems to fight for the last word.

Yea I love PTI but it just doesn't work in the booth. The coversation just didn't flow, it was more like they were competing instead of talking. I do like Terico(sp?) though.

this is not a bad thing......having TC in the booth last season, there was finally someone there to call him out on some of the stuff that came out of his mouth....

That's funny because I'm getting a degree in sports journalism with a concentration in broadcasting

there are several that i like, but who wants to talk abou them?

i guess the ones i just don't like are:
Brent Musberger
Bob Davie
Joe Theismen

those are the ones i just can't stand. the rest, some are really good, like Ron Franklin or Kirk Herbstreit or don't do anything for me one way or the other like Vern Lundquist or Dan Fouts.

This is actually a great question.

Keith Jackson was pretty universally well-liked before he got old, which was about two decades ago. Now he just sucks. Most people liked Costas back at the beginning of his career, when he was mostly baseball; then he got the Olympics gig, after which he tried to bring an almost Musburgerian level of drama to everything he did. Everybody likes Erin Andrews, but she doesn't really count.

Jim McKay? Jack Buck?

Verne Lundquist is liked by everybody who has heard of him I guess.

I haven't heard anyone say they didn't like him.
