Default Re: TV poker commentating is AWFUL.

OOT. . . did anyone else notice Clement doing color commentary for Badminton during the Summer Olympics last time around? It was surreal.

I think I remember them mentioning that Clement is a really good badminton player.


Is there any doubt that Gus Johnson is the best current play-by-play man in the NFL today? He's amazing.

And Rick Jeanneret is the best in the NHL by far. Anybody who's ever heard the incredible clip during a Sabres-Devils brawl about a decade ago when Scott Stevens jumped Rob Ray will definitely agree. It sounded like RJ was on the verge of jumping out of the press box to get to Stevens.

Nobody is worse than Michael Kay on YES or the Sterling/Waldman combo on WCBS. If you only listened to them, you'd think the Yankees would have gone 162-0 if they could only catch a couple breaks. And Jeter is the greatest player in the history of baseball and A-Rod is a close second.

And the worst poker commentator ever (to get back on topic) has to be Dick Van Patten. Nobody ever raises without the nuts in DVP's world.
