How often does someone say "Great, ___ is announcing this game!" vs " Well, at least it isn't Dan Dierdorf." Basically, there are a greater number of announcers who make the game worse than make it better.

People also remember the slights more. When an announcer praises their team, they're all like "****ing A right. That's not bias, that's just truth."
