I'm not sure if this was supposed to be just hockey but Joe Buck doing baseball is the shiz.

For hockey I agree with most of what people are saying. Cole and Neale back in the day, Cuthbert etc.

I absolutely despise pbp or colour guys who talk to much. Pierre McGuire is super guilty of this. Joe Buck on the other hand, is awesome at shutting up. Same with the guy who called the 2016 Wildcard game between the Jays and O's. I commented in the GT that he didn't speak for like a minute and a half or something after EE belted that HR. McGuire's head would explode if he didn't start shouting after a moment as big as that.

I also remember the TSN panel yapping through the 2010 medal ceremony, god that was annoying. Watching it on the announcerless Olympics specialty channel was 1000x better.
