Awful Announcing does various polls throughout the year asking for reader input on broadcasters at the national and local levels. In August, the Phillies’ broadcast team placed 12th overall in an annual survey of baseball crews, earning B+ and A- grades from voters.

This week, they posted the results for a survey on national NFL crews, and Jim Nantz and Tony Romo came in first place, with this accompanying blurb from Joe Lucia:

Breakdown: Why is Tony Romo so coveted by every network with NFL rights? Because he’s really good at his job. In year three of the Nantz and Romo pairing, their grade surged up even higher, signifying that most fans don’t want Romo to stop talking (Chris Russo…..enjoy your spot on that island). Nearly two thirds of the grades for this team were A votes, and just 2.33% of our readers gave them a D or F. This year, the voting was a complete and utter rout in favor of Jim Nantz and Tony Romo – the top CBS broadcast team, and the NFL’s highest-rated broadcast team by a significant margin.

Coming in dead last were Booger McFarland and Joe Tessitore at ESPN, the new Monday Night Football crew for this season. It was a three-man booth last year with Jason Witten, who un-retired to rejoin the Dallas Cowboys.

On that pairing:

Breakdown: Alright, so the good news is that the MNF team is better than last year. The bad news is that…well, it still isn’t good. Booger and Tess drew the highest share of F grades (as you’d expect) from our readers, nearly double the team with the second highest percentage of F grades. They also drew the lowest percentage of both A and B grades, and they were the only team to have less than 20% of their votes in those two top categories.
