ESPN’s Hitzges Belongs in Irritating Hall of Fame

We are all painfully aware of what an afternoon with Dick Vitale or Joe Theisman can do to one’s eardrums, not to mention his level of sanity.

Vitale, Theisman, Reggie Jackson--move over! There is a new, more obnoxious blabbermouth out there that you guys can’t hold a microphone to. This guy has come from nowheresville to inundate our homes with a continual deluge of facts, figures, minutia and general babble, to the point where by the middle of the first inning I find I’m mumbling repeatedly to myself--”who is this guy?” His name--Norm Hitzges of ESPN. Someone at ESPN should surely put this guy on verbal rations!
