My appreciation for Tom Hamilton is multiplied tenfold while being forced to endure the nasally awfulness that is Jim Rosenhaus.
 
Simply the best. How lucky are we to have experienced both Joe Tait and Tom Hamilton in our lifetimes?
 
@ 1:30 of that last Hamilton video....that pitch was 6 inches off the plate and called a strike......poppycock.

Hamilton is great.....but when I heard him talking about bitches throwing their retainers on stage at the justin beaver concert.....I lost a little respect.

If you are old enough, don't forget to include Nev Chandler calling Browns games back in the 80's.

Some of the alltime best in all 3 sports

Jim Rosenhaus is just awful. He could make the Armageddon sound boring. Who the hell gave him a job, and why?
 
Jim Donovan is completely being understated here. The guy is vocal, passionate and makes every play more exciting than the first.

May be a little biased but at one point we had Tait, Donovan and Hamilton. Now 2/3 ain't bad but still we have it real good here.
 
Might as well post this here as well...

I'm old enough to have heard Gib Shanley and Jim Graner do the Browns games, including their call of the last Cleveland Championship game winner.

They were good.

On the baseball side during that era, I always enjoyed Jimmy Dudley.

Worst Tribe announcer ever, in a landslide, was Mel Allen.
