Mike Goldberg and Joe Rogan, a solid announcing duo

Mike Goldberg and Joe Rogan are not exactly the Butch Cassidy and Sundance Kid of announcing duos. In fact if I have to hear the phrase ‘meteoric rise' one more time I might start watching the events in Spanish (¡Si se puede!)

For all the flack ‘Goldie' and Rogan get over their favoritism announcing style at least they aren't the worse announcers in professional sports, like these guys (check them out after the jump).

Billy Packer- He simply hates the sport he is paid to watch. Packer almost single handily killed the Final Four every year.

Joe Buck- The most monotone announcer currently in sports. How is it, that this guy gets to call World Series and the Super Bowl? Does anything excite Joe Buck besides his mom getting him his father's job? A quick scene of a Joe Buck play call "Bored, Bored Bored, Bored, Bored, Bored, Cowboys score a touchdown, Bored, Bored, Bored."

Troy Aikman- Nothing against Troy but he represents the homer announcer. The athlete who always covers his old team yet is suppose to be a sterling image of objectivity. Instead it is a Cowboy felatio session that would make Jerry Jones gag.

Phil Simms- Besides having his own ‘Stupid Shit Phil Simms Says' section at footballoutsiders.com, there isn't a more mentally challenged color commentator currently in the media. My favorite (favorite means moments I most want Phil Simms to die a slow horrible death) Phil Simms moment is summed up accordingly, "I don't like numbers when talking about players." Five seconds later, "Let me tell you about ~insert random statistic this player is averaging~." HOW CAN YOU CONTRADICT YOURSELF AFTER FIVE SECONDS! Thank god Jim Nantz smoked him on Inside the NFL.

Joe Morgan- how could someone who repeats so many factual errors be in the Hall of Fame? How! Bring back Firejoemorgan.com

Steve Phillips- This should actually be amended to the ‘Horrible GM that took a good team with a decent payroll and ran them into the ground, yet has a comfortable job as an analyst lined up' category. Why should we value the opinion of individuals who ruined teams? We shouldn't, in fact we should do what they did in 19th century Japan (yeah I watched the Last Samauri). Steve Phillips, and don't think I forgot about you Matt Millen, both of you should have to commit ritualistic suicide to make up for your utter and complete failures as GM's.

Tiki Barber- The former athlete who was only in it for himself and could be summed up with the word Mercenary. Seeing him on Bravo's project Runway and calling a women a cunt doing morning Olympic coverage, destroyed whatever credibility Tiki had....wait he never had any credibility.

Keith Olberman- Tons of talent, but he's a political commentator now. I don't want references to Martin Van Buren in a highlight package god damn it!

Jay Bilas- This is my one homer pick. Bilas famously (to me anyways) said that Xavier University didn't belong in the '07 NCAA tournament. The Muskies went on to prove him oh so wrong. Because of Bilas' comments he will be reviled until I get a direct apology or the Blue Blob eats him.

Tim McCarver- The useless, totally baseless stats guy.  "Did you know that the team that hits a HR to lead off an inning scores more runs then the team that leads off with a walk?" No shit? Really! How is this even possible? I know how, its because I can do FUCKING MATH!

Rick Reilly- yeah he isn't a commentator but he is a dinosaur. My impersonation of a Rick Reilly column, "Whoa there's a game called Beer Pong?! And college kids play it to get drunk and sleep with women. That is the greatest game ever! I wouldn't of lost my virginity at fifty if that had existed when I was in college."
