The man is the bane of every MLB fan's existence.

I was marginally happy when Fox got the Series, All-Star Game, and GOW because it meant no more McCarver on baseball--surely NBC would give him a great gig covering rodeo or poker, wouldn't they? But, no, he ran to Fox so he could keep doing baseball.<BR/><BR/>And "Who's Now." Treat it as the World Wide Leader's way of sliding Stuart Scott out the door. Stump the Slob didn't do it, maybe this will. Maybe they'll ease him into horse racing the way they did Kenny Mayne so that he and Hammering Hank Goldberg can date.<BR/><BR/>Or, they can give Berman and Scott their own show at 4:00 AM, and they can trade "boo yahs" in the wee hours. Christ, even the people who call Jim Cramer on his extremely loud show have to say "boo yah." Enough of this rant. <BR/><BR/>Fix the All-Star game!! Give it to Vin Scully and Ernie Harwell.

I felt for Jim Leyland, having to watch another bullpen implode. But I do agree, overall, the 2007 ASG was a snoozer.Big Alhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08745424963722654158noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20500414.post-44824239956559585152007-07-11T15:15:00.000-04:002007-07-11T15:15:00.000-04:00Amen.
