Hair at Random

Sports at Random’s COUNTDOWN:

Worst Hair in Sports Reporting:


10. Dan Shaughnessy


Some say he’s one of the top sports writers of the last 20 years, Shaughnessy comes in at number 10 only because we give him a break because he’s Irish- he can’t help that his hair looks like a shower lufa.

9. Matthew Berry

I can’t tell if I really like this guy or really hate him. The Talented Mr. Roto is very open with his thoughts on women, masturbation, and, basically, whatever you want to know. He seems approachable, which is good, there’s just something about him that is a bit off-putting. Maybe it’s his weird, balding hair.

8. Norman Chad

The quintessential nerd hair-cut. Very sad, Norman- you actually seem cool, but not when on-camera.

7. Will Leitch

This isn’t 1997.

6. Bryant Gumbel

He’s lucky he’s got such a good show, because it is so hard to respect someone who looks this much like a tool.

5. Jay Bilas

Your hairline isn’t supposed to get closer to your eyebrows. Maybe it’s just his hairline receding on the sides and not the middle- or maybe he’s Dracula.

4. Tony Kornheiser

The classic comb-over. Come on, Tony. Stop it.

3. Jackie MacMullan

The female mullet. She is a woman covering sports, but still- it’s the freakin’ female mullet. No excuses.

2. Ken Burns

Great documentaries… awful hair. I’m not sure if he’s going for mid-1960’s British Invasion… or a mop.

1. Mitch Albom

Mitch- you are ridiculously rich, you are a great sports writer, a best-selling author, Oprah is on your side- you just also happen to have weird, freakishly pointy ears. It’s ok, Mitch. We don’t care. You shouldn’t either. Stop cutting your hair so it covers them. You aren’t a shy teenager. You’re 49-years-old. This is getting ridiculous.

    Mitch should NOT stop cutting his hair so it covers his ears. Those ears are the most frightening set of sound gatherers I have ever seen. I hope Mitch and his ears are not included in the five people I meet in heaven.

  2. 2 Phony Gwynn

    If “worst” and “sportswriter” are in the same sentence, Jay Mariotti has GOT to be involved.

    Especially with the hair. But overall, too.

  3. 3 Mike Murray

    What, no John Clayton? He easily has the worst hair, hands down. Not only is it receding on top, it’s receding on the sides.

  4. 4 The Sports Hernia

    Seriously, Albom is f’ing ridiculous. Not set of ears can be as retarded as that haircut.

    John Clayton is on his own separate level with his bizarre 16″ three-hair combover that drapes from one side to the other of his Stewie from Family Guy football head.

  5. 5 Doug

    You missed two guys with UNREAL hair. One is Mel Kiper, Jr. with a ridiculous flo, meanwhile Barry Melrose has been rocking the most fantastic hockey mullet for decades. Where is the love for these guys?

  6. 6 Anonymous

    The worst is Karl Ravech with the obviously artificial hairline across the front. I don’t know if that came from a hair transplant, plugs, or a piece, but it definately ain’t real.

  7. 7 Daniel-san

    Ahh… John Clayton- damn, I forgot that one. Great picture.

    And Mel Kiper, Jr. has “good” hair. And don’t diss Barry Melrose- he had a hockey mullet, so it’s ok.

  8. 8 dbvader

    Nick Cafardo is another candidate. No good photographs, though.

    Cmon, Berman’s combover is way worse than Kornheiser’s.

  10. 10 Mr. Bad Example

    Good god… Will Leitch is a handlebar ‘tache away from a role in a vintage Swedish porno.

    “Why, yes, Inga, I want to go to the fondue party… IN YOUR PANTIES!”

  11. 11 Phiff Collins

    The worst is Doug Gottlieb…how u gonna have hair that makes Frank Deford’s dome look ok,and try to hide it by combing it forward…He’s the son of Dracula…

    I could say something about Drew Sharp’s naps,but the fact that it hides all the knots on his crater actually is a plus…

    where is Ravich’s hairpiece on this list. In HD, it’s downright frightening.

  13. 13 Anonymous

    Read Matthew Berry’s Blog…he acknowledges his hair problem and thinks his hair is even worse…

    Len Pasquarelli looks like he just got out of a wind tunnel….walking out sideways of course.

  15. 15 Anonymous

    What, no love for Charlie Steiner?

  16. 16 Daniel-san

    I really missed the boat on Len Pas- he should have been on here. That shit is HORRIBLE.
