We got lucky with Serling.
Horseracing didn't deserve this guy. Here's a guy who is actually competent, and beyond competence has real expertise within his circle of competence. And he has a rational understanding of things in general. He's also very consistent and reliable. He's not correct about everything (nobody is in a game of probabilities like this), but he always does the work and supports his thinking with rational reasoning.
Usually a guy like that would get sucked into a better place than this game. We don't appreciate those qualities. We like anyone who is on the broadcast and we see as an authority. We like guys who lie or twist the truth and proclaim outrageous records of success. We can't discern quality like that. We're a lowest-common-denominator type of crowd.
The other guys are fine.
Aragona is competent. He's got a good style (what is it 'hipster' or something like that?) and he's young, and he tries to be intellectual. This is all good for the game. He seems to work hard.
Stabile is fairly competent. He's got a likeable personality, and he seems to genuinely love the game.
who's the other guy that's on there sometimes? (my memory SUCKS right now and i put in my due dilligence w/ google but came up empty)
-this guy is also competent, and he's friendly when acting as a co-host w/ Serling.
and Mirahmadi is rarely on, but he is competent and has good chemistry with serling
