Should have added mine are probably Howard Cosell--boy, when I heard that voice as a child, I just knew it was Monday Night Football.

Also used to love Pat Summerall. Always a wonderful Sunday.

Scully is great (although I cannot stand the Dodgers).

Chick Hearn . . . well, he was a legend.

Actully Jenn Brown is my all-time favorite even over Erin Andrews. Jenn Brown is on ESPN's Inside the NFL and ESPN's College Game Day. A woman who knows football. I mean I only appreciate her for her knowledge.

See doesnt even need to talk, in fact, I prefer she didnt.

Just thought of another sportscaster I used to like alot. Good ole Jackie Stewart doing racing announcing back in the 70's. That excited Scottish accent was classic. As recongnizable as Cossells.

John McEnroe. Brilliant tennis analysis, speaks his mind, unfiltered, fun to listen to, always up for a challenge (e.g. came down outa the booth to play Djoker a few years back at the US Open)
