No offense to him, but Hank Goldberg really bothers me.

hank always seems to be choking down a huge bite of twinkie without a drink to aid him when they cut to him. i keep thinking he's going to do a liz taylor w/ chicken bone impression or something. he just seems so uncomfortable.

i can't handle tom hammonds. he's always freaked me out a bit. maybe it's all the makeup. i think he cakes on more in a day then i've worn my entire life!

i always enjoyed jim mckay. now that guy did his job and did it well.

Nationally? Hammerin' Hank without a doubt...

Kevin Gorg, the Canterburry track analyst handicapper guy kinda sucks too... I mean he's well spoken, has a good camera presence, but his picks are lousy... But then again, so are the Beulah chicks lol.

I would have to go with Jerry Bailey...dont get me wrong...he was a great jockey and a great announcer but his voice is too squicky and it gets annoying to me ...thats just my opinion

if it wasnt Horse Racing I would have to say Randy Peterson (PBA announcer for ESPN)

I also cant stand Mike Battagelia... he can't handicap (unless the favorite wins), call races, or commentate for the life of him...they should send him to the pastor

The Janis Joplin reference he made during this year's Sunshine Million broadcast was priceless, comparing the outside post at Gulfstream to bad acid trips.

Perhaps counseling is in order here.

If you didn't know better you'd think Hank had stage fright or something. He sounds really nervous to be on tv. Quint had me doubled over laughing so so hard when he talked to Harry Aleo. If I were one of the desk guys I'd have had a hard time not laughing my tail off when they cut back to me on that one.

Was it Chris McCarron that they tried to bring on after his retirement and it was just the most horrific thing to watch? I really liked him as a jockey but that was painful.

I don't care what anybody says, "I'm only gonna say it once" Kenny Mayne's a hoot. The only thing he's ever done that sounded a little funky is say 'Invasor...he is the best' with such a Jose Jimenez accent only about 50 times. I'll be kinda glad when Invasor retires so I don't have to hear it anymore. That said there are some of the most random things that make me chuckle and I enjoy watching him crack up Randy Moss. I wanna see more Muttonchops.
