I've always hated the ESPN baseball crew. Joe Morgan's not bad, but they always say they most stupid **** and go off on terrible tangents. I hate it when they cover Braves games.

Joe Morgan's not bad?

Have another one, Ty.

Didn't say he was good. Far from it.

Steve Phillips just said "Barry has been scrutinized unfairly."

This is almost too sickening to watch.

Steve Phillips is an idiot.

ACtually, on second thought, I think it was Hershiser.

that would have been a home run if we were playing on a 3-D field

How many dimensions does the field he is playing on have ... in your world?

Doesn't matter. The point remains.

Eight.

And I'm pretty sure you knew what I meant, that he would have hit a home run if the fence was 430 feet above his head.

IT WAS A HIGH ****ING POPUP.

"Too high?"

"Not too high. Too hard."

"Who gives a ****? It's gone."

 

[deskslave]

Game over.

Language Mystery, language.

Did anybody notice that right before Bonds 6th inning at bat (that led off the inning) last night ESPN ran a steriods commercial.

Just Classic

 

[Angola!]

Is in the lineup against Clay Hensley and his 6.49 ERA tonight.

 

[pressboxramblings07]

He better not do it. I don't want to rip my front page up for him. I've got a long drive tonight.

Say he does get to 756. Do you think the television coverage of him will go down a little bit? If so, how much and when?

I think it'll take a drop everywhere but on the West Coast and ESPN about a week after he breaks the record. I just can't wait until I can watch the Dodgers and Diamondbacks play a more meaningful game on ESPN. Of course, I doubt we'd see that on Saturday night, anyway.

 

[Sam Mills 51]

Then what will ESPN have Pedro Gomez do? :

Obviously, the coverage everywhere but San Francisco will tail off greatly as soon as he breaks the record.

ESPN won't even show his next game once he breaks the record, unless it's already scheduled.

 

[mike311gd]

I know they won't show the full games as soon as there's nothing to chase. But will he still be at the top of the highlights? Will the scrutiny subside? ...

 

[KYSportsWriter]

Then what will ESPN have Pedro Gomez do? :

He could do what he did in June last year and follow a returning pitcher make three minor league starts ...

 

[hockeybeat]

Cocksucker just hit 755.

 

[Angola!]

At least he did it 1 1/2 hours before our deadline.

 

[Write-brained]

No. 755 brought to you by steroids ... the breakfast of cheaters ...
