It's Official, Craig Bolerjack is the Worst Play-by-Play Man in the NCAA Tournament

Right now, it’s a runaway for Worst Play-by-Play announcer in the NCAA Tournament on the TV side. Craig Bolerjack seems to be in love with his own voice. Listening to him call the Belmont-Duke game, you would think he’s getting a lap dance from the hottest stripper alive. His voice when a big play occurs sounds like he’s on the toilet trying to pass a kidney stone. And when Belmont took the lead over Duke, Bolerjack went over the top as if he was with Governor Elliot Spitzer’s prostitute.

And his partner, Bob Wenzel is not helping either, overrating plays, yelling and screaming. This is not a good start for this announcing team.

Unless the Friday announcers, Verne Lundquist (highly unlikely), Ian Eagle (I don’t think so), Tim Brando (um, no) or Jim Nantz (yeah, right) somehow perform worse, Bolerjack has the Worst Play-by-Play Announcer in the NCAA Tournament on TV locked up.
