I couldn’t stomach Dave Strader and Mickey Redmond. Redmond, especially. My friends that were hard-core fans said I was being irrational, and I probably was. But I used to watch the games on the TV with the sound off and listen to the radio broadcast.

I still do that with Monday Night Football.

Mickey's still around here. Ken Daniels of CBC replaced Strader about 10 years ago when he went to ESPN as that's closer to home for him. Those are two of my favorites. I can see where a casual fan wouldn't care for them.

I can't stand Barry Melrose whereever he is now. He's is still bitter about not getting the Wings job which went to Scotty Bowman. I have the sound off when Dook, I mean Dick Vitale or John Madden are on the TV screen. I'll stomach VS if I can't get the game on CBC, but they aren't my favorite.
