Kevin Harlan and Gus Johnson are great to listen to. Outside of that, I can't think of any who are worth a damn.

The color commentators are even worse. Most of them are an abomination, their speech makes John Madden seem like Cicero in comparison.

Most are cowards who are unwilling to call out opposing players and/or coaches or refs for boneheaded plays or calls. Their insight never goes further than the blatantly obvious, and all of their stories are completely inane.

Perhaps if you've been bashed retarted for 14 years in the NFL you aren't necessarily suited to due commentary.

One pleasant surprise is Rich Gannon. I was pretty impressed by the job he did last week in the Den-Oak game. He seemed pretty objective, and has improved a lot since the beginning of the year.

Although Dierdorf tends to like the Chiefs I think that he's a ph*cktard.

Joe Buck and Troy Aikmen are decent. at least they can stay on topic. I think Siragusa is a poor sideline repoter though.

Phil Simms sounds good but Jim Nance isnt quite up to par and can be a disruption. All the other crews (on both networks) are terrible

Were about to see my personal worst tonight in Joe Theisman and Paul McGuire. I cant stand those guys. They overexaggerate every player and every play they make.

I can't stand Randy Cross when he does a Chiefs game. The ESPN Sunday night crew is tolerable. I think Deirdorf is pretty good though.

Randy Cross hates the Chiefs, but that's ok, because I hate him more.

I f*cking hate that fairy, Joe Buck, he is the biggest hypocrite assclown. Why doesn't he just stick with baseball.
