Other - Ian Darke or just about any other announcer who calls EPL games. Their commentary is smart and to the point, with a witty joke here and there, and in general would make American football announcing tolerable. They are the complete antithesis of Jon "NOW THAT WAS A FOOTBALL PLAY" Gruden and his ilk.

Wait wait... where's Herbstreit?

Umm, no Herbstreit or Keith Jackson????????????????

Agree. Whoa, Nelly. Where is Keith Jackson?

totally forgot about herbie, i'll fix that, and jackson is retired

The poll says "dream", so I assumed we could bring Jackson out of retirement or even back from the dead if necessary.

Jackson is my choice as well

"Who would be the first guy you'd pick for your college commentator dream team?"

Where the eff does it say anything about retirement disqualifying someone from a dream team?

Isn't the whole point of a "dream team" to remove barriers such as death, retirement, and other roadblocks life creates to prevent the creation of an actual team?

"Who would be the first guy you'd pick for your NHL dream team?"

Wayne Gretzky - oh wait, he's retired, he can't be on my dream team...wtf?????

hahah I DENY THY ARGUMENT. THE BLOGGER OVERLORD HAS SPOKEN. THOU SHALT DEAL WITH IT

Hahaha, fine.

You could call it the "All Star Team" rather than "Dream Team." That would imply ACTIVE announcers.

/just sayin ;)

Todd Blackledge is by far the most underrated announcer

Johnny Staff on 5 Oct 2010 - 11:50am #

i agree, he's terrific

I despise Musburger. Maybe it is his name, but every time I see him I think of this awful Chevy Chase movie, Nothing But Trouble, and Dan Akroyd's weirdo character therein.

Here is Musburger eating a hot dog:
