There is a general push in broadcasting towards more natural sounding voices. Within game commentary typically the play by play will have a more traditional "radio voice" and be a trained broadcasters, and the color analyst, will be a former player/coach, etc, and they intentionally want them to sound more like a "regular person".
Tony Romo is another a good example. Breaks almost every rule in terms of his sound, but he delivers fantastic insights.
