Best Sports Announcers
The Top Ten
WHOA Nelly!
a gentleman, a scholar, and a voice for college athletes.
This man was the greatest. It was a pleasure to hear him on T.V. or the radio. He actually made the football game which he announced more interesting than it otherwise would have been.
One of the best baseball announcers, period. - wisconsinboy
called 4 perfect games great drawing card nuff said
Let's not forget Game 6 of the '86 World series
Nobody comes close to Vinny.
One of the best!
The best football announcer in today's day in age. - wisconsinboy
He knows his football very well.
Articulate and very prepared
No one comes close to being as good as Mike Emrick, no matter the sport. You don't even have to understand hockey to feel enthralled and excited when he announces. His passion for the sport is evident, and his respect for every player is awesome. I wish every game I watched was announced by him. He can make a boring game (which basically never happens in the NHL) feel like a playoff game. And when it's a playoff game, Mike Emrick will most definitely give you goosebumps. Mike deserves to be number 1.
The BEST
You always hope when your team plays its on NBC Sports just so you can hear it called by the Doc without a doubt still to this day the best play by play announcer of all time.
Simply the best play by play man in any sport
He is the best period although the only two times I can remember him on T.V. was him calling the 2010 Cotton Bowl and doing a pregame interview the next year's cotton bowl. - wisconsinboy
The only reason John Madden has a job is because he was part of the greatest tandem in announcing history with Pat Summeral
Pat Summerall is precise, accurate and always on point, besides that he's a great guy. We love you man!
Nobody in football beats Pat Summerall. Nobody!
The best for multiple sports.
Very knowledgable and brings excitement to the game, especially in the NBA.
He has a good partner, Rich Gannon for football.
His interviews with Ali are classic, he was very entertaining on MNF, and his style and vernacular were unique and exceptional.
The one and only.
Way better than his stupid son
He is on the Mt Rushmore of announcers
The very best, the timber of his voice was so strong. Loved the Monday night radio broadcasts with Hank Stram- better than watching the game on T.V..
He screams of excitement! He's the best announcer in America in my opinion. He is one of the best football announcers. I have him as my top favorite sports announcer.
"'DOWN THE SIDELINE" This guy is passionate and isn't afraid to yell
The most exciting play by play
SPARTYS GOT 6
The Contenders
It wasn't a real football or baseball game unless Gowdy was announcing! - BurtReynoldsWig
The best, goofiest, most passionate announcer the White Sox and major league baseball has ev seen
YESS! No one better. Very passionate about his team - crazyeyes56
This debat is OVAH! Hawks number 1! - crazyeyes56
YOU CAN PUT IT ON THE BOARD, YES!
The G.O.A.T of sports broadcasting
The best baseball announcer
And that ball is outta here! Michael Jack Schmidt! - Fireball1066
Every time a Phillie hit a home run, I had to scream "OUTTA HERE" with him.
"As God as my witness, he is broken in half. " Nobody has as much passion as good ole' Jim JR Ross
Great and precise
Kevin Harlan is the best active sportscaster. Even makes crap games interesting.
Never heard a voice like his before. I will sometimes tune in just to listen to him.
He sure knows his football and NBA. Very intelligent.
The best
Ernie Harwell was the GREATEST baseball announcer ever!
just listen to the mans voice, ahhhhhh so dreamy - bore5
Best sports interviewer
How the heck is the Hawk higher than Harry Caray?
No other announcer so loved the fans and the Cubs as Harry Carey did...
SEEE YA
2nd best hockey announcer "top shelf where mama hides the cookies" anyone else remember that
Simply the best.
Enberg should be at least in the top five of top ten. Not 24, one of the best announcers period. - wisconsinboy
A very descent football announcer and baseball announcer.
"oh my" Dick Enberg is a Top 5
Yes Sir! SEC football, Master's golf, March Madness, he was a voice that always brought tingles.
When it comes to the Voice of the SEC Verne is. It.
He is better than a lot above.
He and Al Michaels are perfect for SNF.
I'd take him over his arrogant brother Bryant. Greg's fun to listen to.
It is high it is far it is gone all rise the judge
This guy made every game great. Just amazing
Goodbye! Home Run! Thorne is a lot of fun to listen to. In fact I have him on my MLB 2K11 Wii game.
Madden should be up at least on the top ten not on 36, best sports analyst period. - wisconsinboy
One of the best college football analysts.
"And the other Lord Fauntlory comes on the field." Most is a CLASSIC announcer! So passionate about the Celts and the most sarcastic s.o.b. I've heard from a sports announcer. - fireinside96
havlicek stole the ball it's all over
The best radio announcer ever. He's very funny too. He was clowning around the outfield by catching flyballs with his tuba and then all of a sudden he starts denting the tuba and he gets a fine for it and he's like, not all of it. He's one funny guy and one of the most funniest announcers in sports.
Love to watch a game and listen to him
Hands down, Criqui was the best announcer for CBS. Too bad he's retired now.
I really loved it when Cory Provus called Brewer games alongside Uecker. I miss him.
Best golf announcer ever. Tells it like it is
