Agreed on both sides. I can’t remember the last time I’ve heard this much booing at Busch Stadium. Seems that I’m constantly saying to myself, “Well that was generous.”
I loved watching games on tbs, having the pitch tracker their constantly. With fox, I find myself seeing a pitch and hoping they’ll show the pitch tracker.
Give a man a hamburger, he’ll eat for a day. Teach a man to hamburger, he’ll live forever.
A couple of containers of empty bottles showed up late at the water plant last night, so I had to listen to the game on the radio while unloading them. At first I was pissed about not being able to watch the game. Then I realized how much more enjoyable it was to follow the game without the Buck/McCarver blather. Dan Shulman and Orel Hershiser call a much better game.
Note to self: Watch TV with sound off and radio on.
I was doing this when the NLDS and NLCS were on TBS. TV muted, KMOX streaming through my MLB.tv connected phone.
I simply couldn’t stand one more minute of the TBS guys rambling on and on and on about the shady spot between the pitcher and batter. A half hour talking about the shade?? C’mon!
I caught the Red Sox radio announcers on SiriusXM one night of the World Series - I really like their announcing. Good stuff.
Who did they have on SirrusXM…was is it Joe Castiglione? He is the radio broadcaster on WEEI in Boston and is the best. He used to work with another guy, Jerry Troupiano…WAAAAYYY BACCCKKK!!!
:), I like to do this watching Bronco games.
BUT, the TV always lags in time about 15 seconds.
So you get to hear on the radio what is going to happen, and then you get to watch it unfold.
WEEI sounds like it. Those guys must come from the same broadcasting era as Mike Shannon and John Rooney; their mannerisms and timing are fairly close. I was getting a kick out of it!
I wish the Cards would have won, but when your offense is shut down and you’re going against Big Papi batting over .700, well, it’s just not your time.
