HtotheNootch 0 Posted May 11, 2006 Share Posted May 11, 2006 It seems that the lines between announcers and commentators are well blurred here.In any event, the best announcers are:Marv Albert (hockey, basketball, NFL) [althought Marv doesn't do all of them anymore]Keith Jackson (College Football)I guess Joe Buck for Baseball (not a huge baseball fan)As for analysts in any sport, John Davidson is the best out there.

BearCanada 0 Posted May 11, 2006 Share Posted May 11, 2006 I can't believe that no one has said Chris Berman. Intelligent, funny and clearly knows his stuff. Link to post Share on other sites

I guess before I start cleaning Chris Berman's closet, I should clean my own. (In the words of the immortal Barry Bonds) Link to post Share on other sites
pockets 0 Posted May 12, 2006 Share Posted May 12, 2006 Joe Morgan is terrible.Jon Miller, however, is great, which makes ESPN Sunday nights a little weird for me. Link to post Share on other sites
MapleLeafs 142 Posted May 13, 2006 Share Posted May 13, 2006 Hockey - I love that guy from CBC who does the show in between periods. He is funny as hell.Donald S. Cherry. He's Canada's biggest icon. Link to post Share on other sites
BigDMcGee 3,352 Posted May 14, 2006 Share Posted May 14, 2006 Don Cherry's a good jazz musican, I know that.The answer to this question is now, and will always be Harry Caray.man I miss him. You know who else I miss? The Costas/ Ukeur baseball combo they used to have for the playoffs, man those two were hysterical. When Costas isn't waxing philosphic about Mickey Mantle, I love him. I can't wait to see Kornhieser on MNF. At last!! It's abotu time they started trying something like this, instead of that denis miller gimmick. Korn may be really bad, but I think he'll pwn.

socalpoker_j 1 Posted June 6, 2006 Share Posted June 6, 2006 OP, the announcer for the Padres is Matt Vesgersian, and yes he also did the NBC Heads Up Championship. He's a pretty good announcer in his own right. Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Guest Posted June 7, 2006 Share Posted June 7, 2006 All around bets IMO is Al Michaels. WHile on the topic of announcers, the Blackhawks did it again, letting Pat Foley go is more evidence that they are not in touch with their fans. He was the only good thing about the organ-I-zation.

wsox8 10 Posted June 7, 2006 Share Posted June 7, 2006 Hawk Harrelson and Darren Jackson.. WOOOOOOOO best ever Link to post Share on other sites
ol'number7 0 Posted June 7, 2006 Share Posted June 7, 2006 I personally think its Kevin Harlan. His basketball line "right between the eyes" is pretty good. Kevin doinf Suns-Lakers game right now.I agree, Kevin Harlan is money. Years ago he did the Timberwolves games, and he would do the "J.R. Eaaaaaaaaaaaaaasy Rider" line on a lot of his dunks. I also remember his enthusiasm with a line like "AND THE T-WOLVES TAKE THE LEAD AT 4-2!" like 1 minute into the game, lol.I watch a lot of boxing, and Jim Lampley gets my vote -- especially during the Ward-Gatti trilogy he had some great lines, he can really add to the drama Link to post Share on other sites

They are the best.Kieth Hernendez is also pretty good.Joe morgan is great because he hates the Yankees.Stan Fischler is by far the worst announcer ever his monotone voice puts me to sleep.

Waffles2003 1 Posted June 12, 2006 Share Posted June 12, 2006 Best sports announcer are the Univision Soccer Announcers...even if you dont understand Spanish, they are so fun to listen to. I understand 40-50% of spanish and listen to their broadcast over the shizzy broadcast of ESPN...on top of that, the picture is so much better on univision.
