    Fox has ruined sports coverage. I miss Roone Arledge.

    Fine. But, Buck and co. were just following a decades old line of thinking in regards to baseball. It's not a line of thinking that is his doing.

    The Missississipi River is a standard body of demarcation. Since we're talking national broadcasts where they treat the viewer as if they are new to everything, using the Mississippi makes more sense than a city they probably doubt most viewers could find on a map without help.

    Anyone who says "no teams West of the Mississippi" is ignorant. St. Louis had two teams, at one time. So there were times when there were TWO teams "West of the Mississippi." That someone else made profoundly false statements is no defense for Buck or McCarver repeating it, especially when Buck grew up in St. Louis and McCarver made his name as a major-league player there.

    Two words: Justin Bieber. Fortunately, I had already muted the TV to listen to Kruk and Kuip.

    I'd like Buck a lot better if he didn't act like he was being inconvenienced and doing us a favor each time he calls a game.
