    Least favourite baseball announcers

    I know we had one earlier about favourite announcers, but as I am forced to listen to the Colorado guys tonight, I am thinking is this the worst duo of any of the MLB clubs?

    Grating, annoying, stepping all over each other.

    And they are about three minutes behind the correct scores from around the league. How difficult is that to keep up with? I've got my laptop up with the latest updates. Sheesh.

    Out of the ones I hear often...Joe Morgan and whassisface.

    Out of the ones I catch time to time on MLB.Com....there are tons of National League announcers that put me to sleep. The Mariner announcers used to be the biggest homers around but have mellowed out.

    The Hawk is annoying as **** but bearable if it isn't my team playing the White Sox. The Rays announcers are approaching unbearability.

    Joe Morgan and Tim McCarver.

    I suggest that Joe Buck should be traded to ESPN for Joe Morgan.

    Miller/Buck would be a helluva broadcasting team.

    Morgan/McCarver, eh... not so much

    Oh god. Listening to those two in one booth would be a fate worse than death. Talk about a Yankee kiss-***-fest. They'd probably have a state the obvious and make no enlightening or informative comment contest too.

    I'm not the only one who knows the truth about Matt Ryan.

    Morgan and McCarver.

    I don't like Buck either. He doesn't really seem like he actually likes baseball or knows much about it. He just kind of...has to do it because it's his job. Sometimes, it seems like hes not even paying attention to the game.

    Stupid Buck. Why isn't he in the wilderness with the rest of the deer, where he belongs?

    He's pretty annoying. Imagine a dynamic duo of Harrelson/Mccarver? That'd be the verbal equivalent of a nuclear disaster.

    Joe Morgan ... geez, could you stop talking about yourself and your achievements and talk about the game that's happening? And he's so in love with the K-Zone of ESPN, even if the umpire clearly sucks, as long as the K-Zone shows its in, he'll praise the ump. Meh, use your own darn eyes.

    OOHH MY GAWD....IT'S ROGER CLEMENS IN THE YANKEE SWEET...OOHH MY GOODNESS GRACIOUS, I HAVE NEVER SEEN SUCH A DISPLAY IN ALL MY YEARS COVERING BASEBALL....HE HAS COMETH, WE ARE NOT WORTHY, WE ARE NOT WORTHY, WE ARE NOT WORTHY. OH MY GOODNESS GRACIOUS!!!!

    That pretty much was the worst moment in the history of baseball announcing/commentating. She must cringe out of embarrassment everytime she hears that.

    Re: Least favourite baseball announcers

    You guys remember the WS last year, when the did that dumb icon showing how many steps someone was leading off the bag at 1st. Is that something we needed on like every play??? Quite possibly one of the worst gimmicks ever provided.

    I'm not a hockey fan so maybe that had something to do with it, but I actually liked the glowpuck. Keeping track of that **** puck during fast pace isn't always easy.
