Buster and Timmy are REAL good at baseball. I dig Harold Reynolds too because he is basically Lil Penny.

Barkley is the GOAT.

Hahaha Costas has been shit for years. He's an annoying little faggot.

Chris Broussard is pretty shitty too.

Barkley and Jet shit on everyone.

Ron MacLean is just a tier below them but he's fantastic.

Mayock is for hardcore football guys but is a brutal personality. I would like to see him brought into MN as a GM/VP personnel guy

I nominate Kevin Harlon
Hey, by the way who's Curt?

Never been a fan of MacLean. I don't really think there are any really good stand out sports personalities in hockey. Most of them are either over the top retarded (see Don cherry & Mike Milbury) or just too bland. Maybe Roenick.

While I will say that Ron is a little too vanilla, I don't think any non player has more knowledge of the sport he covers. He is quick witted and keeps conversations moving better than anyone I think. CBC fits a lot into intermissions. Ron owns that shit.

Cherry is hot garbage but I watch him regardless. I love the way Ron reels him in a lot of the time.

Don't mean to dwell on a dude too few of you know/care about. Carry on.

Four of my favorites (LeBetard, the massively underrated Jon Sciambi, and the Van Gundy brothers) discuss sports media and the games on this highly recommended podcast:

all of these people, besides Barkley, are arguably the worst in the business. Especially harold reynolds, who knows slightly more about baseball than my girlfriend who just learned about balls and strikes at a dodgers game 3 weeks ago.

Sources close to the situation tell me that Broussard is the absolute worst.

Ron Maclean is definitely the gawd. Just being able to put up with Don Cherry on a regular basis is a task on its own. I would also add Brian Williams for that OG status. As far as non-Canadian stuff, I gotta go with Charles Barkley.

No love for Scott Van Pelt? By far the best personality ESPN has to offer.
