First, let's talk looks...
If you watch a considerable amount of ESPN, then you get your fair share of Michelle Beadle. Especially with the free time in college, I could watch the same SportsNation a few times in one day. With that said, Beadle is starting to look old, and I feel like I don't see enough of Erin Andrews. There's no doubt the 35 year old's body still has some talent left.
By not slipping a peek at the infamous Erin Andrews reverse peephole video, you aren't really missing much (but come on, you've gotta watch it). There's no doubt the body is there, but the details aren't, and I'm not yet desperate enough to dissect it for some. With or without the details, EA, the 2007 and 2008 award winner for Playboy's Sexiest Sportscaster, takes the prize. Not only is Andrews proven (shown by her bikini pics), but Nobody gets bitched out when she comes on air.
Leading to the next topic, TV skills...
Michelle Beadle and Colin Cowherd are teamed up for ESPN's SportsNation. In this case, Cowherd actually hurts Beadle. I don't usually mind listening to Cowherd, but often he makes an analysis that any typical sports fan that has never played a sport in their life would make, a stupid one. Maybe that gives Beadle some justification for the attitude on air, I'll accept it. Cowherd's questionable views leave the door wide open for Beadle most of the time, but rarely do I see her killing it, she gets the job done, but without style points, or a challenge. I can't say much about her days working as the New Jersey Nets sideline reporter, who honestly watches Nets games on the YES Network anyway? Plus, Beadle is a Jets fan, not helping her case.
Even while she was in school at Florida University, Erin Andrews was in the spotlight as a 3-year member of the Gators basketball dance team. Not a bad start. Since joining the broadcasting scene in 2000, EA has reported for nearly every sport including, hockey, different levels of football and baseball, and even the Outdoor Games. She matches the knowledge Beadle about the wide world of sports, making for a tight race. She currently hosts College Gameday, and acts as a Good Morning America correspondent, beating out Beadle in the TV credentials category. Plus, she's not a Jets fan, any other team is better. Andrews wins the edge again.
The Outcome...
Big Bad Beadle puts up a killer fight in this heavyweight faceoff. Yes, Beadle's rebellious affair with ESPN's NHL analyst Matthew Barnaby (who is in the midst of a divorce and assault charge) sparks some interest, and might point to her as being the more exciting option. But in the end, EA takes the crown as the safe, sexy sports broadcaster, banging out the win Every. Damn. Time. But then again, Beadle does bite the hell out of that hot dog...
What do you think Bros? Vote 1 Star for Beadle, Vote 5 Stars for E-Andrews.
