I find that even the commentators I start out liking, I start disliking them eventually. Like Gruden and his partner on MNF? Started out liking them, but now they're getting on my nerves. They should rotate sports commentators so they don't have the same gig all the time. Same with these 2 meatheads on SNF. They bug me now. :fp:

I am really beginning to detest Chris Collingsworth's voice. I mean, a lot of the things he says, makes sense, but just the way he speaks, with that smarmy, condescending voice - I can't stand it.
Al Michaels, I like, he is old school and has a voice I can tune out
I know its an unpopular opinion, but I couldnt stand Madden
haha.... I always liked Summrall and Madden, but I can see how he could be annoying
I don't like Phil Simms, just such an odd accent, always sounds like he is really struggling to speak, like someone on a phone with a bad connection trying to talk loud so you can hear them

Nantz and Simms are a brutal combo. Just awful to listen too.
Collinsworth is bad.
I like Greg Gumbel, Mike Tirico and John Gruden. I enjoy the one game a year that Chris Berman does. And I know I'm in the minority but I didn't hate Dierdorf.
Tirico and Gruden should do MNF together forever. I learn things listening to them. They're interesting - sometimes more interesting than the game itself.
And I know I'm in the minority, but I like Buck and Aikman too. There's a guy that kind of sounds like Anderson Cooper. I think he works with. Marv Albert's son. Those guys are okay I guess.

Joe Buck called the "Helmet Catch" with as much enthusiasm as someone who caught a 3 yard slant pass in a preseason game.
That series of events where Eli got tossed around by the Pat’s D linemen on a 3rd and 5 with one minute left in the Super Bowl and then just fired off a pass to who knows what that was miraculously caught be a man who would go on to never catch another pass in the NFL again AND prevented the apocalypse of the earth by preventing the Pats to go undefeated deserved a …
“Holy Mary of Motherfucking Christ!!! I can’t fucking believe that just happened!!! Hallelujah! Holy shit! Where's the Tylenol?”
And it also gave us this …
Where the Pats joined an alternate universe where the Buffalo Bills are 4-time Super Bowl winners and Jim Kelly is the greatest QB of all time.

Woah woah, you like Berman as an announcer??? That 1 game a year that he does is AWFUL...can't stand that guy. Wish he would just retire already like Dierdorf did.

I like it because he only does it once a year...and, because I'm on the east coast, I'm usually asleep well before half time. It is a very small dose. :-)

Awesome post. And was that Joe Buck who was calling that game/play? If so, then yeah it was awful.

You hate a lot of things, but I agree. I'd rather listen to the MNF guys right now. Fuck, even Al Michaels and Chris Collinsworth would be a huge improvement.

LMAO, actually though, Phil is the problem. I think he's so bad that he drags Jim down with him.

Just to be clear are you trying to say 'field goal'?
You never really had to begin with.
Sometimes it's not the song that makes you emotional it's the people and things that come to your mind when you hear it.
