Many to choose from but I'm going with:

Fred Willard - Best in Show

I'm thinking most of his stuff was ad-libbed. He deserved an award.

I was going to say none because I was thinking of SPORTS but you would be correct. It probably would be Willard.

If any of you mention Any Given Sunday, just go ahead and check yourself into the hospital because you are suffering from a stroke.

Most play by play in movies is exaggerated and nothing like real play by play.

Dang! I agreed with Rex. I need to go shower.

You mean like the entire fricking movie?

Willard was hilarious, but Bob Uecker as Harry Doyle is the correct answer. He actually fits the role of a baseball pbp announcer (well, he is one IRL) unlike Willard as a dog show announcer.

Bob Uecker in Major League is obviously up there.

If I recall right, Rob Schneider did pretty good in Necessary Roughness

Still can't believe they actually agreed to do that movie. Seems like Costas would think he was above that.
