Except Jim D is a terrible analyst. just brutal. One good joke doesn't change that. I'm not sure who is worse, Jim D or Ron Coomer.
Coomer is just flat out bad. Voice for nickelodeon overdubs or what not. JD is getting better slowly as he evolves with Len. Speaking of Kermit he could do well to stop being so condecending and acting like he has played the game. He preps well and is good at his job but is a smarmy douche at times.
I dont think Len is that bad, but like every guy involved in any sport they believe they are now part of the game and see it differently than the average fan.
Much of that comes from guys like Len and Bernstein never playing the game or any game at any level, then seeing some inside info and all of a sudden they are experts.
Bernstein watched some Duke practices and then his legendary year of selling tickets for Rockford made him an expert. What does make guy have a different view is playing for different coaches, really seeing what was good and what was bad, practicing, seeing how the length of a game takes it tolls on guys.
Every guy on the field, court or ice knows who is the best players from top to bottom, better than any coach,scout, announcer or GM.
