Have you had it with bad sports announcing? Are you still miffed that the "expert" calling your team's game both mispronounced one of your reserve's names and botched the score, all while making a bad pun? We feel your pain. And we're here to help. Using a field selected by
AwfulAnnouncing.com, we've put together a fan-voting tournament that will determine the worst sports announcer in the biz. Read AwfulAnnouncing's breakdown, then vote for the announcers you think should advance (i.e., "stink the most").
Round Two Worst Voting: Play-By-Play | Analyst | Studio Host | Sideline ReporterPAM WARD (1) vs. BRYANT GUMBEL (5)
AwfulAnnouncing.com says: "Both Ward and Gumbel dispatched of their counterparts easily in the
first round of the Worst Play-By-Play Announcer bracket, with Bryant pulling off the 'March Madness 8-9 Seed' upset over Chip Caray. Who will you pick to advance onto the Region Finals?"
KENNY ALBERT (7) vs. DICK STOCKTON (3)
AwfulAnnouncing.com says: "Albert picks up the only true upset in the PBP Bracket, as the No. 2 seed Mike Patrick is sent packing. Meanwhile, Stockton barely snuck out of the first round in his contest versus Brad Nessler. Dick was more than likely looking ahead to the matchup with Patrick and now has to deal with Cinderella Kenny Albert. (Wow, that works on so many levels ...)"
