Um hello, Ernie Johnson? Inside the NBA wins Emmys and according to Wiki, some consider it the best studio show on television.

Mike and the Dog, Joe Benigno.

Sports Guy blows, I don't think anyone has mentioned him though anyway. If you actually know anything about what he's talking about you realize he's a moron. This shows when he says anything about poker, and he has my roommate constantly spouting off about "The Ewing Effect" (teams are often better after a long-time franchise player/star finally leaves, based obviously on Patrick Ewing) even though my roommate knows nothing about basketball. Knicks were better with Ewing and it isn't debatable, just take a quick glance at what they did when he was hurt and after he left Simmons you [censored] douchebag.

Sports guy can't not tell the difference between causation and correlation, is incredibly results oriented and thinks guys like JD Drew suck for being average.

I find that usually people who were former players, talking about their sport in a non-bias fashioned make the best media members. Herbstreit for college football, john kruk, aikman, marino, the guys on best damn sports show are pretty good too.

I don't mind Van Pelt, but I hate Anderson and Everett. What is to like about Everett? I guy with a god awful voice shouting for little or no reason. Call me old fashioned, but when I watch SportsCenter, I want highlites, news and info, not idiots shouting at me.

Really? That may be true, if they did, or could, talk about their sport in a non-bias fashion. But, I don't think most of them can do this. They seem to always mention how things were when they played, but usually not in a historical sense. Or they will discuss what they would be thinking/feeling if they were in the same situation as X is during a particular spot in the game. And to me, their 'thoughts' or 'feelings' they describe in this situation, always seem really contrived.
