Jackie MacMullan from "Around the Horn". If she was a dude, she'd be jobless.

Mariotti, he acts like a prick on Around the Horn. Kinda like Johnny Miller, he's been there before, has some good insight.

Darby has a good point. ESPN analysts are annoying when they think the Lakers and Yankees are the greatest ever.

This far and no mention of Colin Cowherd? How can someone who admittedly doesn't watch much sports have such arrogant and condescending opinions. Add in his whiny bitch voice and infatuation with front-runners and he is by far the worst one out there.

I love listening to Cowherd. He's hilarious.

I honestly don't mind Skip because he does know what he's talking about... The hate on LeBron is more so because he wants LeBron to prove him wrong. Reading his "tweets" during the Boston series really told the story about him, imo. He really wanted LeBron to step up and take over.

However, I can't stand Joe Morgan, and I agree with the poster who said Michael Smith has been getting pretty arrogant.

I also can;t really stand Stan Everret and his co-anchor on Sportscenter Los Angeles...

Honestly though, I don't watch ESPN outside of actual games.

I'm ok with Cowherd's radio show but he's a total fuckstick on SN.

I always hated Tim McCarver. He seems so smug and like he created the game and talks as if we are 5 year olds.

Chris Berman. Just his stupid calling of highlights and nicknames, and all the "woooop! then he makes a move there and wooooop!" I want to punch him.

Berman is pretty much a cartoon character. Very annoying the few times he actually does a baseball game and yeah...his sound effects are O L D and played out.

BUT, some of these people on ESPN are there for pure entertainment value and some people don't seem to realize that ESPN isn't a news source in the true sense of the term.
