Somebody once said there's no accounting for taste.
I've always liked Atlas and Cosell but could never stomach Merchant. Merchant always struck me as a pompous ass, who always asked the stupidest questions and in his
pomposity didn't realize how bad he sounded. Cosell was able to laugh at himself, remember the way Ali called him Howie and was always trying to grab his toupee? Atlas can take a joke too, remember when his sidekick pushed him in the pool? I can't imagine Merchant laughing at himself under any circumstances. I can't complain too much, what if all announcers were like Merchant. Thanks to the one above, we're all different!
