I love watching TV, and like any normal bro, I love watching ESPN. Now ESPN and all it's related channels are definitely the channels I watch the most. After watching these channels for so long I feel like I know most of the TV personalities without ever meeting them. There are obviously anchors and analysts I like but there are also anchors and analysts I really dislike. The thing is I am not alone in my animosity towards these people. If I had to choose my top 3 of people I like the least at ESPN it would be Skip Bayless, Todd McShay and Adam Schefter, in that order.
I know everyone hates Skip Bayless much in the same way everyone hates Joe Buck. Skip Bayless is smart though. Not smart in a good way, but smart in that Spencer Pratt way where he knows exactly what to do and say to continually be on TV. This dude needs to get kicked off of ESPN though, because after this many years of absurd opinions it's clear he loves to play Devil's Advocate for the sake that it keeps him on TV. Anyone that calls Lebron James overrated should not be allowed to voice any other opinion on a sports station. I compare his opinions to that of little 8 year old lax players who think "baseball sucks because there's no hitting in it." Yeah, because if there's a certain group of badass meatheads in our society it's 8 year old lax players. Also, when Skip discusses any sport that isn't football or basketball he has no idea what he's talking about, it's like I'm listening to my grandparents talk about iPhones.
Anyway, aside from Skip Bayless I have a genuine dislike for Todd McShay. He's a joke, not in the way that Skip Bayless is a joke but for the simple fact that he has a job at ESPN. Todd McShay is the NFL scouting analyst for ESPN. He's only been working at ESPN for a few years now and I still don't understand his purpose. You see, they already have a NFL scouting analyst in Mel Kiper Jr. but I guess having 1 loud, obnoxious, nonsensical "analyst" isn't enough. These guys don't offer up any good insight they just guess at whose going to get drafted when. It's retarded. They're like the weathermen of the NFL, but worse when it comes to predicting. And lastly, my dislike for Adam Schefter is fairly recent but I have a feeling it's going to grow the more I see him on ESPN with some crappy "Breaking News" story regarding a trade I don't care about.

at least they got rid of stephen a smith. token black guy to scream about every basketball issue
Yeah Schefter and Bayless are gay, Todd Mcshay not really. Kiper's way worse, just look at the guys hair/mouth combo, brutal. Bob Ryan, Jim Rome, Trent Dilfer, Jackie McMullen
what are the names of the guys do do college lacrosse games on ESPNU? they are brutal as well
How the fuck did jim Rome NOT make this list? Absolutely the worst dude to appear on the network
Mel Kiper Jr. has never played football in his life... not even Pop Warner. Absolute Joke.
Look at this wikipedia page. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mel_Kiper,_Jr.
Todd McShay at least got in there at the college level. Skip Bayless is fucking tight too, except when it comes to MLB.
