What? I’m pretty sure Muncy said Dick Mountain was going tonight. Shit, I hope he’s not sick or something
In the bottom of the 18th Joe Buck excitedly asked Smoltz “If the Red Sox win where does Eovaldi go down in Red Sox lore?” The moment I heard that I thought: 1. Eovaldi (even though he pitched great) is a well rested starting pitcher going 5-6 innings in one game, so no, that’s not an amazing postseason gut it out performance that will put him in the conversation with Koufax, Hershiser, and Randy Johnson (and honestly, I think Smoltz was thinking the same thing) 2. If the Sox lose right now, that comment will make Joe Buck look like an ass hat 3. Joe Buck is an ass hat
Yes...but even though Buck s of the gluteus maximus chapeau persuasion, the media was flocked around him en masse as if he just won the game in the 18th, not lost it. The.guy who did win it in the 18th, had one or two.
It’s gonna be hill, I think it’s the Dodgers playing some gamesmanship with the Red Sox since the Red Sox aren’t announcing their starter either
couple notes on my gf... • loves the dodgers • taylor is her favorite player • hates grandal • thinks roberts is an idiot • loves buehler • hates dozier • hated, but now loves baez • despises wood [no enhancements] more than any other player • has met diablo • occasionally lurks here • likes what we say, but won't join • thinks rube is trolling all of us • wont say who her favorite poster is, but it might be vrp... yeah, she's a keeper but that last one is going to take some getting used to BlueMouse, still heartbroken over his breakup with VRP, likes this. .
Side note. It's incredible how horrible the local news pre and post game packages are. I will never complain about Fox Sports 1, SportsNet LA, MLBN or ESPN ever again ( well, I probably will). The local Fox 11 crew is as cringe as it gets. Like high school morning announcement level bad
that's actually not harsh enough they're like out of touch teachers trying to incorporate lingo they should never use "hey marge, did you happen to see jimmy's swag accoutrements? they're actually quite dope!" and their banter back and forth is amateurish and idiotic goes back to the old question... how do these idiots get hired
likes him more than dozier, less than taylor oh and she fucken hates machado and was screaming at the tv last night when he dogged it
Reporter (chipper as ever): "Cody, how about that AMAZING throw?!" Cody: "Uh, well...it was actually a bit up the line. I thought I airmailed it, but luckily Barnes made a nice save" lol The worst though is Liz Habib. She's not only horrible, but full of herself. I remember when Stan Kreonke bought the land in Hollywood Park, she had the Mayor of Inglewood on to talk about the proposed stadium deal. The Mayor stated the stadium would be 100 percent privately financed (which is true), but once X amount of revenue is generated for the city, a percentage of that revenue would be reimbursed to the Rams to cover the cost of road work. She tried to pull "gotcha" journalism, like the mayor was lying about tax money being used. She could not get it through her skull that the only public funds used would be from a surplus generated from the stadium itself. He tried and tried to explain it, and it looked like he was going to hop through the screen and murder her (wish he did, tbh). She ended with, "Wow, he's clearly upset, but I'm just trying to expose the truth and he doesn't like it". lol. Chick thinks she's an investigative journalist when she can barely read a prompter.
Just watched the replay...after Blue Max did it, when everyone was hugging and patting him on the back, Jansen said, with deep psychological gravitas and irony, " thank you". Thank you indeed.
