He debuts on the pregame show on May 27th.

 

.....ugh?

[Youk Of The Nation]

Could be worse. Could be Schilling.

[Spudboy]

I like him. And always will.

[Spudboy]

YOUK!

[Palodios]

YOUK!

 

Haha, considering Youk hit a home run two seconds ago, I'll assume this was supposed to be in the game thread.

Yeah! I clicked back to the new post screen and must have selected this thread by mistake.

 

Either way.

 

YOUK!

Ahhh, c'mon yeszir. Nothing wrong with Millar. I'm glad he's on board.

He looks like Guy Fieri.

 

I liked him as part of the 2004 team when he wasn't talking.

:lol:

 

I just figured he is such a s*** kicker that he would eat Popeyes!

 

I have to believe that is shopped. No way the Sox let that go.

Buncha Millar apologists in here

[BSN07]

Millar should at least be entertaining.

 

Is NESN giving every member of the 2004 squad a shot at being an analyst?

[TheMino007]

Yep, I'm still waiting for Mark Bellhorn and Pokey Reese to get their dues

Ughh?? Did you see him on the MLB Network? He had them all in stitches! He is hillarious! Jim Rice is fuggin useless in studio.. I call him Captain Obvious.. he doesn't bring anything new or remotely fresh to the post-game discussions.. All Jim Ed does is stutter and string together dusty old cliche's.. He is TERRIBLE! God love Jim Ed..he is one of my all-time favorite players.. but Millar is 10X the studio presence! Millar is a NATURAL. Millar still talks to many of the current Red Sox players and still considers himself a Sox.. he is gonna make you eat your words bro..

 

And BTW..Millar called Big Papi while he was on his terrible streak... He broke down his swing and showed how he had changed it and how he needed to go back to the high leg and quick hands...he was right on..and soon after Papi started raking. I am not saying Millar is the reason..I thought it was impressive how he broke down the swing..then of course in true Millar fashion he told Papi to tighten up the beard. Jim Rice is totally detached from today's players... Millar knows who these guys are behind the scenes.. I am telling you..this is the best thing they have done since bringing Eck in...maybe better.

Jim Rice is hard to follow sometimes between his stutter and his mumble/mutter.

Thank you for stating what I have been too lazy to post.

 

Millar is pure entertainment.

I like Big Jim. Because he is not a professional announcer and because he is not big on diplomacy, every once in a while he gives you something that lots of other ex-jocks don't-- the honest opinion of the ballplayer. Sometimes you have to listen very closely to understand.
