Charles Barkley?! Oh well, maybe they can cut him in the fall to make room for St. Timmeh.

1. The Mad Hungarian is on that list? Damn, I bet he's pretty good. What a character.

[Scuba]

2. Worst ever title should go to Ken Venturi.

[KamaAina]

3. It says "athletes".

[Scuba]

6. Bwahahahahahaha!

[El Supremo]

4. All of them are far better than Joe Buck or Tim McCarver.

At least McCarver is gone.

[KamaAina]

5. Buck was never a jock.

He's always been a sports talking head.

And, as you mentioned, McCarver is gone. edit: Mom, Republican Stepdad and I used to goof on McCarver with some frequency.

7. Those are some of my favorites.

The only guy missing is Emmitt Smith, just matriculating down the field.

8. I miss some of the very best ones

Loved Joe Morgan -- guess they thought he got too old but damn, he was good.

[KamaAina]

11. Oh, man. Mom and Republican Stepdad, both rabid Yankee fans, HATED him

with almost as much passion as McCarver!

9. Totally agree about Shannon Sharpe

The guy is barely coherent.

[El Supremo]

10. We love Shannon in Denver.

He was very coherent but talks really fast. And he talks a whole lot.

But I agree with you about Joe Morgan. He is not liked very well in this group, but ever since I met him and Jon Miller during the 2003 ALCS, I have a lot of respect for him.

[Renew Deal]

12. I love Shaq and Barkley as broadcasters

They are both entertaining, knowledgeable, and bring an interesting perspective. This is especially true of Barkley.

13. It's almost criminal that Magic Johnson isn't on this list. n/t

[ProfessorGAC]

14. Something Weird on That Website

I can't get it to recognize clicks beyond the picture of John Kruk.

Maybe i'm using the wrong browswer.
