Finally, we can watch some real baseball!  I wonder what all the commentators are gonna do now that all of their teams are gone!  Seems like they had their favorites and made sure to point that out during the games, poor souls. :cry  They actually have to call the game down the middle now!    :lol

If the game is on Fox Sports you wont get any relief. All those idiots talk about are the friggin Yankees. Even when they aren't playin in that game. Watch when a closer comes into the game, they'll drop Mariano Riveria's name 3 times before a pitch is thrown. Buck and McCarver are the worst, they're play-by-play sounds like a phone sex hotline.
"Oh Texeria, you're so big!"
"A-rod is so bulgie. He's like a moose."
"Oh, Riveria....Mooo!" Putting on their "MO" face.

It's really disgusting. I mute the TV and listen to the game on the radio when the local TV broadcast is blacked out.  :bhead

That's the only potential match-up that's going to be of any REAL worth. Aside from Cards/Brewers in the LCS  (though I'd have loved to see Cards/Yankees. THE classic World Series rivalry). Last time these two teams faced each other in the playoffs was in '82. At the World Series. But even that doesn't have the same weight of history behind it.

As for your prediction, remember what happened LAST time someone discounted the Cardinals vs. the Tigers in the Series: "The Tigers in Three"

Unfortunately I agree. What's sad is I LOVED Joe when he did play-by-play with the Cardinals before moving to the national team. Especially when he teamed up with his dad. He's so much like Jack hearing Joe do the games is almost like having Jack back again (GOD, no one could broadcast a game like Jack Buck  :cry :cry :cry). But ever since he's gone to the national side he's no different than the rest of the national media.

And Tim McCarver just plain pisses me off.

Michael Kay is the worst on YES.

He will sit there and say "now he'll probably throw a slider......and there's a curveball!"

Ahem.... Harry Carey. His late inning antics were quite comical.


And Tim McCarver just plain pisses me off.

I'm not sure how this clown still has a job... anywhere. Have you read any of his books? Just awful.
