Bob Costas. Game over.

I've stopped watching ANY sporting events on NBC because of that guy. I watched the Olympics on the internet (786K connection
Bob Costas. Game over.
David Pleat - absolutely terrible (and a pervert)

In the late 80s or early 90s, I remember NBC (I think) did a Jet-Dolphin game with no announcers, just enhanced graphics (before we had the gaudy ***** they do today) and it was pure bliss.
95% of all of them just can't shut up. They are masters of stating and then restating the obvious. I wish they would just shut up and let us watch the games.
I'd like to see something like that actually (without going to the game of course, I can't afford that)....In the late 80s or early 90s, I remember NBC (I think) did a Jet-Dolphin game with no announcers, just enhanced graphics (before we had the gaudy ***** they do today) and it was pure bliss.

How is it possible that nobody has mentioned Joe Theisman yet?

Buck Martinez on TBS baseball. His voice is the most awful thing I have ever heard and he tries to act like he knows all the answers to everything.

Though he has retired, John Madden was quite easy to, er, make fun of.
I think they're all idiots...they sit there and talk about what just happened during a game, as if it's quantum physics or something. Here, let me simplify it:
"Neanderthal 'A' just tackled Neanderthal 'B', and now he has the ball."
There, I just summed up what you were trying to say in about 1/4 the time, and without waxing-retarded about it.
Joe Morgan.
Worst. Evar.
Let's not short-change John Madden in the booth; he was a rambling idiot.
I guess I only really watch American football, but I'd have to say (in order of decreasing badness) the worst announcers are
Tony Kornheiser
Bryant Gumble (no longer on NFL Network but god... 2007 Giants/Patriots was a train wreck)
Joe Buck
Dan Dierdorf
Kenny Albert
Troy Aikman
Keep in mind that Aikman is still pretty bad.
