If it is someone who stays tapped into the current pulse of the game and is able to provide information that I otherwise might not have known, then I don't care if the insight is from an insider's point of view. I wouild rather have a well-spoken and entertaining "super-fan" than a former player that mumbles his way through a broadcast trying to incorporate his "insight" to the game.

I also think the value in grooming an heir to Maher outweighs the need to have that special insight.
