I Might Be Mistaken But........

Tim McCarver has never, ever managed a major league game...correct?? Why must we sit here and instead of hearing his call of the game or "color commentary" we must listen to him second guess the decisions of the Rockies manager in regards to who he pinch hits or when the pitcher should or shouldn't come out!!!! He just ate his words in mid-sentence when Cook got a bunt hit....I thought that was sweet!

McCarver sucks!!!

Almost time to get our fish on!!!

I thought Fox did a lousy job with all the post season games. Never once did you hear about pitch counts. McCarver would mention an up0comning change, only when he saw the replacement getting up in the dugout. Gee, thats perceptive. Tim couldn't even get the teams right at times.
There's not many networks out there like NESN with Orsillo and Remy that can do commentating and color. The quality even in the big market areas just is not there. Ever listen to a Yankee's game, its sickening.

That's what happens when General von Steingrabber decides he wants cheerleading shills in the braodcast booth instead of pros.

At least you didn't have to listen to Mr. Morgan on the radio like I had to during the week. God awful

I thought it was enlightening when one of McCarvers keys to the game was that the Red Sox needed to make contact. Ummmm....yeah.
