Sports event analyst: Or what I would like to call, the reasons why many people mute their televisions while they watch the game. (I am not referring to Johnny Miller, I don’t watch golf)
Troy Aikman, FOX (states the obvious many times)
John Madden, ABC (once good but getting senile)
Tim McCarver, FOX (once good but getting senile, blatant Yankee fan angering Red Sox fans, also used for Deion Sanders NLCS championship target practice)
Johnny Miller, NBC
Joe Morgan, ESPN (many people do not like him, I even once saw that their was a website dedicated to getting him off Sunday night baseball)
