If you could pick any commentators

8/1/2015 11:53am Edited Date/Time 8/6/2015 5:50am
If you could have any three people calling the races each week, who would you like them to be? For me I would love having
1. Ryan Villopoto- he gave great info and depth when he called the 2014 redbud race. Plus his past experience, and getting to know him better and better each week would be awesome.
2. David Bailey- how can you not agree? In opinion he is the best motocross commentator of all time.
3. Ralph Sheehan- just kidding... The last should be MC, he is the best supercross racer of all time and lived his career 10 times better than any other pro, so it'd be awesome to hear his take on each race.

Art Eckman. Used to love watching early 00's racing knowing he was going to be commentating. Never struggled to talk and always seemed to have a decent amount of knowledge. Art and David Bailey were a good combo.

DV934 would probably make quite a funny commentator!

Cameron Steel
Todd Harris (I think that was his name from back in 05?)
Weege or Langston, hard to pick!

You need one color guy to keep them on topic.

Larry Huffman was an awesome announcer

David Bailey was always good, but I honestly think Jeff EMIG is doing a good job and Ralph is growing on me .....

RC isn't cut out to announce the races, he's out.

MC was a nice guest, but I don't think he's got it.

I like Grant Langston, he's getting better every race, and he's a really cool guy.

Those guys that do the Canadian nationals are fun to listen to, but that gets old after awhile too.

I like to hear it from someone who has lived the sport but can also speak intelligently and have strong opinions. DV, Bailey, Ping, and possibly JT$.

Well, if RV does sit in for a moto with Malin ( said to be possibly happening during the Pre Race show) today at Lommel, we might discover a new talent.

Were you listening to Ralph announcing the Xfinity NASCAR Qualifying that's on NBCSN right now, when you started this thread, or is it just a coincidence? I like Weege, and starting to like Langston more, thought Emig did a great job. For a third guy, I prefer RC (with Emig) over KDub or MC. Who will be doing it for SX this year? Same crew?

I think Dave Despain and David Bailey as a team would be great . Maybe Gilbert Gottfried as a third one from time to time Smile Ok, Gilbert might not be such a good idea after all but I think that Bailey and Despain would be great

Weege does a phenomenal job. Great voice, keeps it interesting, full of knowledge, true enthusiasm for the sport.

I watched a couple Canadian races a couple years ago, those guys could make a curling event seem interesting.

He's in the booth doing the live broadcast, with Dale Jarrett.

Not so much that, but it felt like a more unconstrained, conversational tone, which for some reason appealed to me. I'll "get the fuck out" now.
