Joe Thiesman irritates the hell out of me. So does Dan Dierdorf. Madden may have slipped a little, but in his day he could analyze a play in real time and pick out stuff to comment on that had me wondering how the hell did he see that - then they'd show the play in slow motion and sure enough he'd called it. He's also got a great sense of humor. He does a radio show - just a few minutes long - every day on a local station and it's quite often either very insightful or very funny.Doug Pensinger wrote:Ronn!

For play-by-play, I really like Al Michaels. Maybe it's that I really like Al Michaels' *voice*. But he is better on the play-by-play than some other announcers. Darryl Johnston hasn't been doing too bad a job on commentary from what I've seen. I imagine that when he's been doing it as long as Madden has, he'll be one of the greats. (If he's at it that long.) Folks I really *don't* like having in the booth include Boomer Esiason (sp?) and Cris Collinsworth.
