As long as this man is still calling NFL games he can't be the worst, he's merely horrible.

I'm not so sure that wasn't unecessary.

Average at best.

However, ESPN's MNF presentation would make any broadcaster look bad. All the interviews and guest appearances in the booth and so on. It's ridiculous. More game, less [censored].

Horrible, but not the worst. The worst belongs to one of the following:

-Hawk Harrelson
-Joe Morgan
-Tim McCarver

Paul Maguire is so much worse. I think Kornheiser has been worse than Theismann this year. Theismann has actually toned it down significantly compared to his time with the Sunday night retards. Of course, he's still a loud, obnoxious oaf.

I'm gonna say average. He says some really dumb stuff but balances it out with hilarious/true comments like: "WR's never get called for PI ever". I don't like him but I mean if you compare him to the average Sunday 1:00 crew of stiffs he's not so terrible.

Like who? Dr. Z rates all the crews and he gives a lot of the lesser known crews the best grades IIRC.

Solid article. Anyone that gives the old ESPN SNF team a 0 star rating deserves some credit; the Thiesman - McGuire duo was unbearable.

I'm not sure why he likes Brian Baldinger, but he gives probs to Kenny Albert who I like. And a good grade for Stockton/Moose who are a good team as well.

I don't mind Siragusa because, as a field reporter, he doesn't speak that often. Most of what he says is crap, but there's simply less of it. He's not opening his mouth after every single play like Theisman or Bill Maas.

I think he has one of the worst garbage to insight ratios ever. He also seems like he is trying really hard to do something that no one wants.

He is just so hard to listen to. I mute the games and listen on the radio. Just the sound of his voice annoys me.
