I know the obvious least favorite is cowherd and skip but there’s a few hated gyms I love. For instance, I use to hate Stephen A but after I heard him for a while I’ve grown to enjoy listening for the entertainment aspect. Mainly bc I hate max and love watching him get destroyed. Also I think I would hate clay travis in real life but I enjoy anyone who takes an unpopular stance and is brave enough to defend it.

My favorite has got to be Scott van pelt and sir Charles though. Scott is a true professional and Charles doesn’t give af yet is a truly decent human

+1 Gus Johnson

-1 Danny Kanell

I don’t dislike Danny just because anti-SEC. He’s a moron for many reasons.

So many choices

Skip is an arse, always baiting the audiene
Steven Smith is annoying as hell
Wilbon is always kissing B1G arse
Feinbaum is a stooge now, click biting the worst in college sports
Clay used to be cool but no longer
Danny is the anti SEC stooge
Pat Forehead is a pimp

I think Bill Simmons is awesome

And I used to hate Joe Buck but he has really grown on me the last few years

Can't really think of anyone I hate but I would prefer to never listen to Beth Mowins call a UGA game again

Oh and I can't forget about Tim Kurkjian. I'm not as big on MLB as most sports but it's hard not to love him. Super nice guy and is an absolute baseball encyclopedia

I can't stomach Dick Vitale.

Or women sportscasters doing men's sports.

Plus category
Todd Blackledge with almost anybody except Joe Tessitore on a college football game. I still like Al Michaels, though Cris Collinsworth is unbearable. I like Tony Romo. And I like Scott Van Pelt.

Minus category
Almost all of ESPN's talking heads, including Dick Vitale, Screamin' A. Smith, Tony Kornheiser, Michael Wilbon, Max Kellerman. Vitale has jumped to the top with all of his hypocritical remarks about Will Wade as he defends Bill Self, Rick Pitino, Coach K, Roy Williams, Tom Izzo, etc.

Also, Rece Davis makes this list when he became a little defensive bitch during the Devin White fiasco last year as some of his colleagues rightfully called out the SEC for its lack of transparency. And Tessitore is an unbearable game show host on Monday Night Football.

Jim Nantz makes me want to punch people.

And finally, Troy Aikman may be the single-dumbest person on sports TV now that Jason Witten went back to the Cowboys. Aikman does an excellent job of using the words "excellent" and "good job of" a lot without adding a damn thing.

Retired Plus Category
Pat Summerall and Verne Lundquist. Two of the best PBP guys ever to call football and pleasant to listen to for three-plus hours.

I just don't watch many of the day or night time sports shows any more. I watched them a lot back in the 90's when Sports Center was its prime with Dan Patrick, Keith Olbermann, Craig Kilborn, etc.

CNN also had a great night time sports show, CNN Sports Tonight, back in the 90's until the early 2000's, with guys like Vince Cellini, Nick Charles, Fred Hickman and Van Earl Wright.

But, that was back when the networks kept politics and social commentary mostly out of their nightly sports highlight broadcasts.

End of old man rant.

Verne... don't miss him calling out wrong names or describing something that clearly didn't happen on the field. I swear I saw him throw out 3 or 4 possibilities on a play once, and literally 0 of them actually occurred. All of you who liked him can eat a bag of dicks

After that insufferable Chris Berman finally retired, everyone else is fine in comparison
