    I was watching Chris Fowler commenting on the World Cup Live show they now have and was thinking, is he the best ESPN has?

    I know we have had a thread for the Worst BSPN announcers but I honestly don't remember seeing one for the best.

    There really aren't too many to count, I guess here's my short list:

    Jon Gruden
    Ron Jaworski (sp?)
    Mike Tirico
    Jeff Van Gundy
    Hubie Brown
    Marcellus Wiley

    I don't watch too much Baseball Tonight but I think John Kruk would be one... ???

    Is that it?

    I have more, but I don't remember their names...

    The only guy I really like from ESPN is JVG

    Van pelt and Kenny mayne are funny sometimes.

    To the OP. I was thinking the exact same thing about Chris Fowler.
    I'm not a big college football fan so I haven't watched him much but i've been impressed. I've also been impressed with Tirico as well. The less said about the American soccer guys-Lalas and Harkes the better.

    Was Hubie Brown the same guy that called announced that Derek Fisher was filled with toughness right after he elbowed Scola in the face?
