While content is certainly an issue, I think these posts are more pointed toward how unqualified these folks are to be in the booth. Of course, ever since ESPN gained national recognition, they have lived with the belief that a former participant is the most qualified to be on the air. And it just isn't ESPN. Just about every sports outlet seems to follow suit which is why many of the studio shows are a joke.

I'm surprised Chris Berman is still there, but he's bigger than just about everyone else. As good as Tom Mees was, if he didn't die, he probably would have been pushed aside with the jock mentality.
