All Time Best Sportscenter Lines

Nothing tops Juaqin "The Dog" Andujar.

You all forgot about their favorite NASCAR driver, Dick Troechle.

One of Olbermann doing a baseball highlight, introducing a rookie pitcher:

KO: This is not a good sign right here

(Shot of pitcher looking at the baseball, shaking his head, then throwing it back).

KO: He doesn't know what it is!!!

And another, using his basketball "release, rotation, SPLASH!" phrase for a golf highlight of someone hitting into a water hazard...

Not a line, but I still crack up whenever I see clips of Charlie Steiner losing it during the show and how he could never quite get it back together. Hilarious! I miss the guy on the show, but he is a great play-by-play announcer.

Not on ESPN, but one of my best sports lines ever came from Kevin Harlan. He's doing a Lakers/Spurs game in the Alamodome. Shaq thows down this dunk on David Robinson that practially brings the whole basket standard and that end of the arena down, and he screams out: "Oh, that's inhumane!"

After a great game, Shaq says, "I'm like the Pythagorean Theorem, I can't be solved"

It's C squared, Shaq.

"BOO-YAH!!!" -stewart scott

"and he celebrates like a slave who made it to the north"- ray romano on snl.

what is up with stuart scott's lazy eye? it wasnt always like that was it? maybe i just didnt notice it at first but at some point i was like what the hell is up with his eye? On a note unrelated to his eye he is very annoying.

In regards to ESPN commercials, I liked the one where Lance Armstrong was on his bike, on a stationary trainer, in the electrical room. One of the anchors comes down and asks LA if he needs water or an energy bar, and LA says no, he's good. The anchor says, 'okay then, show's about to start, at which point Lance starts pedaling and the anchor closes the door to the electrical room. Pretty amusing.

i found this one to be my all time favourite....highlight of a double play or similar with the informative...thats a 1 3 double play if you are scoring at home...or if you are by yourself...

there's none better than Berman's "Nobody circles the wagons like the Buffalo Bills"

"he plays his enemies like a game of chess"

when showing a replay from a different angle:

" lets take another look to see how women aged 18 - 29 feel about this"

I almost cried when Kornheiser left radio. He was the only sports talk I liked. Rome was okay for a while, but hammering one subject 3 hours a day for 3 weeks straight was too much. Patrick was okay when they had interesting guests and joked around, but he turned into the most grating host by always trying to make his guests mad and rail about everything that is bad in sports. And local guys are.....local guys for a reason.

I just listen to music all day now only turning the station when news or commercials come on.

A couple years ago, Scott went to train in preseason with a football team I believe and got hit in the eye. He was off sportscenter for quite sometime while he was recuperating.

I believe Scott went blind in that eye for sometime and his return to Sportscenter/broadcasting was serriously in doubt for awhile. It was a very serrious injury.

Jennifer Caprioti, more than a little chubby, is getting killed.

SC: Maybe if she would be able to get to that if she did some side bends or crunches.

The funniest thing I heard on espn was Craig Kilbourn broadcasting a basketball game. This was years ago and he was pretty low on the totem pole. It was some mid major game on espn 2. The guy with the ball took at least 4 steps going to the basket and laying it in. Kilbourn says " He's going to the basket and he...........travels. The hilarious part was that travelling was NOT called though everyone saw it but the refs and Kilbourn just went on announcing as if nothing happened. He never once mentioned how the refs missed that one as virtually every other announcer would have done. The game was also so low budget, Kilbourn was the only announcer that night.

As far as sportscenter, whats up with all the sad sack stories they waste there time showing? Don't they realize from the olympics a few years ago that no one cares about that crap? I can't even watch sportscenter anymore because it takes them an hour and a half to give 15 minutes of news.

"Party karomba, fiesta forever" or something like that

Also, what's the line in Basketball? something like "and if no winner is determined there will be sack races held on consecutive sundays"

yep, kilbourn was my favorite. i liked it when he'd always be picking on pooh richardson.

"no one does that voodoo, like pooh do."

"pooh, pooh katchoo!"

I like it when the anchors refer to the former yankees 3rd baseman as Aaron "bleeping" Boone, due to his ALCS winning walk off homer last year in game 7. I think its funny, mainly because the red sox always loose in the post season.

John Cooger,

Good list, but as a Twins fan, my favorite from Boomer is:

Bert "Be Home by Eleven" Blyleven
