It's bad enough when we're having a horrible season, but listening to the announcers (Joe Simpson is the worst) makes me want to jump off of a cliff sometimes.

Add Hawk Harrelson to that batch of announcers that need to just retire.  Why cant they all take lessons from Vince Scully.  I have never heard that man make a disparaging remarks about a player, coach, or umpire.

Vin will say things about calls, coaches, players. He just does it with some class and dignity. There's a thread here on a slide Justin Turner took into 2nd the other night. Vin's comment was, "Well there not going to be taking the tape of that slide and  use it as a teaching video for the minor leagues. 

JP Santagilo, (Nats commentator) has moved WAY up my list. Easily one of the 3 worst on ait today.

I miss Pete and Skip.  I miss hearing Harry Kalas with the Phillies.  I haven't heard much Vin Scully.  I loathe Joe Simpson.  I can't stand Chip Caray.  Don Sutton is now seemingly better in comparision.
