We all agree that he is obnoxious, but he is also fairly knowledgeable about the game, and not afraid to make an unflat- tering comment about a player, like "Well, Frank, he just plain dropped that ball, it was right in his hands". ABC's surveys and stats show that Howard Cosell increases ratings, whatever we may personally think of him. He is quite literally the man people love to hate!
