« The new guy on SC »

You know what? I really like the "Dream Job" winner, Mike Hall. He brought his A-game the first night, and the second night wasn't bad either.

He's already pulled out a Simpsons reference "I'm going to give him the Outstanding Achievement in the Field of Excellence" and a Zoolander reference "Call him Hansel cause he's so hot right now."

Since he's 22 years old, he's compatible with the college-aged demographic.

In a USA Today article, "SportsCenter" managing editor Norby Williamson said that Mike Hall's debut ranked in the top 10 or 15 out of the 75 that have done it.

Said Williamson, "He wasn't just doing play-by-play of highlights. They were informative. We didn't protect him. We had him doing the opening highlight, a serious one on Kobe Bryant and a fun one."

So you know what I'm gonna do? I'm gonna list Nine "SportsCenter" Anchors I Like Right Now, unordered. (i.e., no Charley Steiner, Kenny Mayne or Chris Berman, since they're not regulars.)

1. Dan Patrick
2. Stuart Scott
3. Scott Van Pelt
4. Neil Everett
5. John Anderson
6. Karl Ravech
7. Bob Ley
8. Mike Hall
9. Rece Davis

Actually come to think of it, that might be in order.

Weird.
