    When was the last time Costas did a game?

    Costas too high; Michaels too high; Bill Stern waaaaay too high.
    WTF are Berman and Musberger doing on this list?

    And why no John Sterling?

    Jack Buck's too low at 11. I agree with spnited -- we could flop him and Costas.

    There's a pretty big dropoff after about 15.

    It's alphabetical order, but still a shock to the senses to see Terry Bradshaw as the first among runners-up.

    And firejoemorgan.com should fire back up just for one day.

    Bill Walton being on this list is hoooooooooooorible.

    A few legendary college football play by play guys should be on this list.

    I'm sure there will be numerous members of this board who will get a kick that Dick Vitale rounds the bottom of the list.

    I'd say the level of character and class drops sharply PRECISELY at #18, but that's just me.

    Vitale should be much higher.

    Berman still kind of counts because he does baseball for ESPN.

    As bad as he can be, I won't begrudge Musberger his place on here. He is a distinctive voice, especially with the body of work he's put together.
