Especially for their summer-long special, "Summer Of Favre: America Held Hostage". I'm looking forward to "Summer Of Favre 2: Electric Boogaloo" as much as I'm looking forward to the inevitable Limp Bizkit return. Now listen here. Don't be bashing Brett Favre. Brett Favre is the Brett Favre to end all Brett Favres. 99.9 percent of the time, the balls he throws are caught! Maybe not by a member of his own team. But dog-gone-it, somebody gets his hands on that ball and BOOM! That's accuracy! Brett Favre can telegraph better than the telegraph I still use at home. Who needs texting when you can go BEEP, BEEP, BEEP, BEEP, BEEP...BOOM! You don't believe me? Let's look at the telestrator...

If its Aikman/Buck again for this year's Superbowl, well that'll be shit. Probably half the game will be Buck trying to "comfort" Troy about the Cowboys missing the playoffs by one game.

I didn't watch all the Cowboys/Eagles game last week but the parts I did watch it seemed that Buck was more upset than Aikman was. Aikman appeared to be complimenting the Eagles at times while Buck just seemed to be upset and on the verge of throwing a hissyfit that the Cowboys were losing. That's what it sounded like to me anyway.

I can't stand Joe Buck, and, by all accounts, he can't stand most New York teams. Good for you, Joey boy. That said, I've said it before; if I die and wind up in hell, it will be being stuck watching an endless loop of ballgames only announced by either Buck and McCarver, or Jon Miller and Joe Morgan. Yeah I noticed in his call on Tyre's catch. He called it like a regular play

I mean, people give Madden crap, but at least he knows what he's talking about.

The guy could sell a checkers match.

I don't know, his knees were probably sore after the blowjob he gave the Yankees throughout the '04 ALCS. Anything involving Jemele Hill this year was terrible. She's a joke and doesn't deserve the job she has or money she makes. That article she wrote where she basically compared the Boston Celtics to Hitler made me want to vomit.

Jim Rome is a huge Jemele Hill mark, just like he his for Skip Bayless (another hack, blowhard of a sportswriter that ESPN likes to give a lot of air time too) and Joe Buck.

We need less sports writers on television but as newspapers get more and more phased out that probably isnt likely to happen. Jemele Hill is horrible on tv. Bad camera presence and personality. Skip Baylass is a "star' but he's an ass. Are they good writers ? Who knows. I dont read them.

We get Michaels this year for the Super Bowl but when CBS gets it I wish Gus Johnson calls it. It won't happen but it would rule Heres a great example of his awesomeness

Jim Rome is a huge Jemele Hill mark, just like he his for Skip Bayless (another hack, blowhard of a sportswriter that ESPN likes to give a lot of air time too) and Joe Buck. I would like to note that despite his being mentioned in a Worst of Sports Media thread, Jim Rome was not described here as being in that discussion. His 2008 was great, quite frankly. The Jungle only got better this year and his tv show (JRIB) is slowly growing into an offshoot of it. As far as sports media, i give my vote to the Big Ten Network, NFL Network's unviewable Thursday night games, the Brett Favre Saga, and ESPN's more annoying talking heads: Skip, Stephen A., and Woody.
