With the retirement of Vern from calling college football games(aka supposed Bama homer per the Rant) who do you feel is the biggest homer sports announcer? Someone who supposedly pulls for one team. For me it's Duke err Dick Vitale. You don't see a Duke basketball game on ESPN in which he is not calling. Whether it be Duke- UNC or Duke-Sisters of the Blind he is calling the game.

Guy is a terrible hack. Whites Sox have been consistently rated the worst team announcers in MLB because of him.

I think he's hilarious honestly

Tommy Heinsohn. But he only does celtics home games so he is a true homer. Most Boston guy they could possibly find.

I had to watch to one of the Astros-Sox games on their broadcast station last year and I wanted to jump through the tv. I guess I probably wouldn't have gotten so annoyed if it wasn't the Astros they were playing

Yep. FP Santangelo is almost as bad. I can tolerate it because I'm a Nats fan, but I can only imagine opposing fans listening to him.

Does Jim Nantz and Fred Couples count? Jim Nantz and Fred Couples.

Hawk is pretty bad. On a side, I've heard a lot of people bitch about Auburn's radio crew for whining about calls/non-calls, but haven't heard them personally, so can't comment too much on them.

1. “There’s a lot of letters in Ladanian Tomlinson”
2. “A team should never practice on a field that is not lined. Your players have to become aware of the field’s boundaries.”
3. “The best way to gain more yards is advance the ball down the field from the line of scrimmage.”

7. “When you have great players, playing great, well that’s great football!”
8. “Ruben Brown made that play there….well I mean he missed the guy completley but he was able to create just enough room for Thomas Jones by whiffing. The air he created on the miss gave Jones enough space to score.”
9. “If the quaterback throws the ball in the endzone and the Wide Receiver catches it……. It’s a touchdown.”
10. “If this team doesn’t put points on the board I don’t see how they can win.”

16. “When your arm gets hit, the ball is not going to go where you want it to.”
17. “They’re either going to run the ball here or their going to pass it.”
18. “The Dallas Cowboys have 2 types of plays in their playbook. Passing plays, and running plays.”
19. “When its raining the field gets wet, then all of a sudden everyones running slower”?
