My favorite sports analyst

[The Indomitable DrugS]

He is.

There are some tremendous analysts in boxing.

I was shocked at how well Lennox Lewis comes across as an analyst.

Pretty good....though I expected he would be.

Speaking of the late Curt Gowdy, his Palm Beach spread just sold for a bit under $20,000,000. He did well.

It's a great sport, but with limited appeal.

It's playoffs are routinely as good as, or at worst, second best to, baseball's.

i LOVE hockey! altho i think football is better viewed from the comfort of your living room (gotta have instant replay, and thank goodness for dvr rewind feature!) i think hockey is better watching from the stands. one of the two things i still miss after moving down here. went to see the capitals play quite often, and really miss the game. a lot of people say they don't understand it, and it's one of the easiest sports to figure out. almost no rules, and very fast paced-lots of action...unlike(zzzzzzzzzzzzz...)baseball for instance.

all i can say is joe buck is horrible. right next to bob costas. and i wish fox would let buck do only football so i dont have to listen to his trap. mr goody two shoes that he is. i want to watch the world series without having to listen to him tell me about sportsmanship. whatever!!!!!
