I am already want to toss my radio through the window. I will not last the season listening to Waldman and her homer act.

With Andy Pettite winning tonight she is practicly lactating.

I am already want to sympathize.
 
I feel sorry for Sue. Think of the dry cleaning bills she racks up sitting next to Sterling at the end of Yankee victories.
Yan-kees win! Thhhhhhhhhhhhh (squirt) Yank-kees winnnnnnn!

(we are watching too much Borat.....trying to find our voice. Anyone can do Gary Smith.)
 
I'll listen to Hall-of-Famer to be Denny Matthews on my XM any day. I've heard Yankees' broadcasts before. What's the ****ing sense in screaming thuhhhhhhhh Yankees win every ****ing time? It's the radio version of Hawk Harrelson. It's the celebration of a two-year old... and this from an organization that thinks the sun rises and sets out of its own ass.

It's been a long night, and I really hate that guy. Thanks for the chance to vent. :)
 
I just got XM this year, in large part so I can listen to baseball broadcasts while driving. I've heard the Yankees a few times already, and it's just painful. When Sterling -- of ALL people -- is coming across as the objective one, it's disgusting. I'm trying to figure out what it is Waldman adds to the broadcast. When Sterling stops on the PBP for a few seconds, you can almost hear her diving for the pre-game info for some useless stats or information. It's panic. When she made a decent point about the silly cold-weather scheduling in the early season and Sterling, seemingly shocked, concurred, she then repeated the identical point for the next four innings. Ugh.

Tonight, I was actually happy to get home and switch over to Extra Innings and listen to good ol' Bert Blyleven on the Twins TV broadcast tonight.
 
Well, you can watch Michael Kay ... oh wait. At least Ken Singleton is pretty good (in my opinion) ... can you try to mute - unmute - mute - unmute - mute for an entire game?
 
The real bad news is Jim Kaat retired, leaving no voice of reason or intelligence on any Yankees telecast or broadcast.
 
BTW, speaking of Hawk, why is he not doing the White Sox/Oakland series?

I have never heard Waldman, only Sterling and Charley Steiner, when he was on the team. I felt like reaching into the radio and choke Mr. "Thuuuuuuuuuh Yankees Win!" Man and break his neck.

He was at Fenway yesterday afternoon to take part of the Red Sox celebration of that 1967 team.
 
The true horror of these broadcasts is listening to the extent that Suz feels compelled to cater to Sterling's Alaska-sized ego.

Which explains why they get along, and why Charley Steiner--a guy with, you know, real talent--and Sterling did not.

Charley Steiner, BTW, was the only media member, IIRC, to attend the funeral of Eddie Layton...even though Steiner had been booted from the booth months earlier.

The best thing about XM is not having to listen to Yankees games on the radio. I can listen to any other game. Amazing how the only time I listen to the Yankees in the car is when they're on the road.

Oh, man, that pairing was AWESOME. There was so much tension between those two, it was great to listen to them. You could just hear the sneers over the airways. I miss that, that was great radio.

Sterling bolted back into the booth after Aaron Boone's ALCS-winning homer in 2003. Steiner had that inning and gave a great, impassioned, spontaneous call. Sterling's ego couldn't stomach the thought that Steiner would forever be associated with one of the great homers in baseball history and darted back into the booth to do his ****ing stupidass ****ing BALLGAME OVER! AMERICAN LEAGUE CHAMPIONSHIP SERIES OVER!!!! THAAAAAAAAAAAAAA YANKEES WIN!!! THAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA OH MY GOD I JUST CREAMED MY PANTS YANKEES WIN!!!!"
 
On a side note, I groaned when I heard Michael Kay say A-Rod hit a game-winning, walk-off grand slam the other night.
 
Re Sterling/Steiner:

The defining moment remains . . . Jon, overheard: "He's (Steiner's) ruining my liiiiiiiiiife . . . " (he whined).

Ha, ha. Didn't know that.

What a complete douchenozzle Sterling is. Thanks for that anecdote, BYH. :)
