A decent percentage of my enjoyment value of the broadcast is realizing and appreciating just how "off" the call is. And, at other times, it's enjoying the time with two gentlemen who love the sport whether they're on or not. That's a big difference, as no one could ever accuse Johnny Most of being a gentleman.
