Is Ducks TV analyst Brian Hayward disliked more than Kings TV analyst Jim Fox is liked?
That's the skewed results of the latest poll, in coordination with the release of the Top 10/Bottom 5 list of the best and worst game analysts in L.A., which is attached to last Friday's media column on Mychael Thompson.
images.jpgWe're gonna assume a Zamboni-load of Kings fans jumped onto the poll, to support Fox (who had 214 of the 420 votes cast for "best" analyst, 51 percent) as much as to bash rival-team analyst Hayward (183 of 323 votes in the worst poll, leading by far with 57 percent). Shame on y'all. Hayward annually makes our Top 10 list, as high as No. 4 in recent years. Fox will tell you as well that the former Cornell netminder knows his stuff.
Multiple voting isn't allowed, so the Kings fans who did flood the ballot box did so on an individual (yet collective) basis. Your vote has been heard.
Lakers colorman Stu Lantz (85 votes, 20 percent) is a distant second to Fox, who won our annual poll for the fifth consecutive year.
On the bad guy list, Pac-10 analyst Petros Papadakis (38 votes, 12 percent) continues to polarize the audience, no matter if its this list, or the sports-talk list, or the TV anchor/reporter/analyst list.
