Musberger: What is soccer?
Balboa: Captain Obvious - pointing out what we already know.
OBrien: Talks about everything except soccer (never seen a match until 6 months ago).
Lalas: Pretty hairdo. More powder please.
Wynalda: Arrogant, occassional hint of soccer knowledge
Foudy: No comment.

Only in America would we put a bunch of amateur announcers and soccer know-nothings on the world's biggest sporting event.

I haven't heard Harkes or Dellacamera this year, so I can't comment

Balboa is a disappointment no doubt. I like Wynalda. At first I was shocked at how sarcastic a California dude could be, but after a while he kinda grows on you. I much prefer someone with a point of view than the watered down generic opinion. Besides, he's been on the big stage.

John Harkes has been the best overall of the US announcers. Solid.

Lalas: Offbeat and somewhat odd at times. Not the depth one expects.

Foudy: Sorry a world champion gets latitude. She's solid.
