I'll start by voting for Brock & Danny, though the Danny part makes it a lot less of a gap than it should be. I can't help but really enjoy Brock Huard as a host and his former NFL QB resume allows him to speak to the game so much better than most sports journalists.

I went Brock and Danny as well. I don't get to listen to them very much but when I do I always appreciate Brock. Yeah, Danny is the weakest link there.
Mitch is okay, great interviewer and not a total homer so I can stand to listen to his analysis without puking. But too often he'll burn entire segments with some personal story or some topic that he thinks he's being cute about. I do think he has a good radio personality, but he thinks it's good enough that I want to listen to 20 minutes about something that happened to him in traffic or him toasting every year because there's no undefeated team in the NFL (he's a Dolphin fan).
Softie I have a tough time listening to. His radio personality feels fake to me, the forced clanging laugh, calling everybody 'pal', I feel like he's a caricature of a sports radio host. But he does get a lot of segments with Hugh or Holmgren. Hugh is a good listen, Holmgren is FREAKING FANTASTIC to listen to. Soothing voice, deep knowledge, his stories all immediately put me under a spell. In Holmgren's case, he is enough of a personality that I will listen to him talk about some story about his family or some personal even that happened to him. To be honest I feel undeserving of getting that much enjoyment out of someone on a radio.
Bob and Groz...neither of those guys bring anything to the table. Groz brings...arrogance? That's it?

So far 100% Brock and Danny haha, and I wouldn't think anything less. That show is the best out of all of them because they can both support biased and unbiased perspectives. Also, Brock is a very well educated experienced player that can give a different perspective of every game (I love his commentary). Danny gives a kind of "fan view", but still gives us that journalist vibe of knowing what he's talking about most of the time. (SHUT UP DANNY).

I enjoy Danny, his arrogance is kind of funny and it makes for some interesting callers. Especially the ones who yell at him. haha.

Moving the Chains on Sirius. It isn't as good now with Jim Miller, the Bears homer, but Pat Kirwan is good enough to keep it great on his own. Brock and Danny run a close second.

I don't mess with KJR after Hugh's vendetta against Wilson last season.
ESPN lost something when they lost Salk, but the Brock and Danny show might be the most informative and entertaining show in Seattle.

Voted Brock and Danny. I don't mind Danny as much as most here seem to. Plus, Tom Wassel(sp?) can be pretty damn funny.
I love Brock Huard. I like his intelligence and personality and voice. Danny I could do without for the most part.

Ok, I can't take it anymore. Brock Huard? Completely unlistenable, I'm sorry. One of, if not the most annoying personality in sports radio history, and there have been some doozies. "You mean to tell me, that Peyton Manning, with all his experience, and all his accolades, and all thousands of yards, and the theatre, and the pageantry, and the ballerina feet and the hand waving, and all his gestures, you mean to tell me that guy isn't one of the most intimidating presences in the history of this league....I don't know what to tell ya". It is the same thing over, and over, and over, and over. Nobody takes more time to explain absolutely nothing. You can't tell me you have ever learned a thing about football from Brock Huard. It is just so remedial. I'm sorry.

I think Brock has the insider track on information being an Ex Seahawk and also not burned any bridges. Warren Moon is a real good inforamtion guy but lets his personal vies cloud things and has burned a few bridges as well has made other headlines not associated with Football so I think the Seahawks keep him at arms length.
Dave Wyman and Matt Strong I like a lot, not as articulate but get past that (ROLAND) and you get some good information.

My rankings
John Clayton
Brock and Danny
Mitch I can't stand ( or the rest of KJR for that matter) he is juvenile and pompous.

I can't listen to brock for more than a few minutes. It might be because of his delivery or his back and forth silliness with the other dude. They talk a lot of Seahawks and that is the only reason I give it a go from time to time.
Groz sucks too.
