Pepper Brooks

Far too often when we watch sports, we bemoan the countless cliché’s that commentators (regardless of the sport, and usually the color commentating ex-player) dispense on a nightly basis. We can’t say that for Pepper Brooks in Dodgeball (shown on ESPN 8: The Ocho), as he certainly never visited the cliché factory. Actually, we have no clue what broadcasting school he went to as he was equally candid as he was clueless; however he was always hysterical; which is exactly what you wanted in this role. Who knew Jason Bateman had it in him after being the comedic straight man so many times.
