Brian Drebber (born July 27, 1950) is an American sportscaster currently working for SPEED.

Drebber was born in Guam, Marianas Islands. Since 1978, he has been a play-by-play, analyst, reporter, writer, and producer, covering eight Olympic, Pan American and Goodwill Games as well as world championships in 25 different sports including, aerobics, Drag boat racing, curling [1], cycling, and Nordic Events [2], for TNT [3], ESPN [4], ABC, CBS, and PBS [5].

He currently broadcasts AMA Superbike, ARCA RE/MAX Series Racing, USAR Hooters Pro Cup, and Bike Week for SPEED. [6]

Brian got his start as a broadcaster/sports reporter by providing the stadium PA/Commentary at the Trexlertown Velodrome in the mid-1970s. As a rider there, his nickname was "Dribbles." It was soon discovered that he was a far better announcer than a rider and his announcing style quickly became very popular at Trexlertown because he knew the sport and the riders very well and had a keen sense of humour.
