See Red

How is this guy still in the League?

Jose Mesa? So long, Phillies.

I was just about to make a point about them calling him the Dragon Slayer but Orsillo JUST made the point for me...

:lol: That's the truth. And I shouldn't be so down on Fogg... he does suck, but he has his moments...

Well, Josh Fogg should be coming in so I wouldn't be so quick to count the Phillies out..

Grand slam by Kaz Matsui. 6-3, I can dig it.

Wow... Rollins goes deep first pitch. 2-1.

Home run Tulowitzki. Home run Holliday. 2-0 Rockies.

The combination of Ernie Johnson and Cal Ripken in the studio break is awesome. Ernie Johnson's the man and you can actually learn something from Cal. He's no Charles Barkley (who, obviously, does TNT's NBA studio show with EJ and Kenny Smith) in terms of entertainment but he's great at it. Frank Thomas seems a little uncomfortable but so far he hasn't been all that good -- I'll give him a little bit to possibly loosen up before I judge him too much. I like the graphics package... simple, easy to read, no annoying beeps and scrolling text like you'd see on FOX. No McCarver... I actually kind of like Buck, though. The announcers tonight weren't all that great -- Steve Stone is usually good, but I think he's best as part of a three man team. The play by play guy was stumbling over calls all night. No Joe Morgan, either. BTW... good thing they made 50,000 different promos for Frank Caliendo's show or else those commercials would get old quick -- as it is, I love Caliendo so I really want to see it. I've noticed that TBS promotes their shows a tad bit much -- they did it with House of Payne too. edit again: Orsillo's partner is already stumbling over his words. "If the Phillies go down 0-2, that'd be a really big mountain for them to climb out of"

Cliff Clavin... :lol: "By the way, did you realize the tan first became popular in what is now known as the Bronze Age?"

Ball game. That was complete domination. The guy's flat out incredible.

Shaping up to be a quick ninth... one more out!

Jacoby!!!

Beckett back out.

Not much he could do there.

Crazy game, ain't it?

I've got to admit, I really like TBS' coverage. Ernie Johnson is the man and Cap Ripken's good too.

Crunchy your big on betting odds, right? Have you ever seen an unranked team giving points against a top 5 team? Has anyone ever seen that?! Everywhere I look I'm seeing Illinois a 2.5 or 3 point favorite over #5 Wisconsin. Insane. For what it's worth, I'd take Illinois... Wisconsin is overrated and they struggle against mobile QB's. Juice will lead the Illini to the win.

Just think of how much you'll hate it when Wang comes out and struggles tomorrow!

They're discussing whether or not Tom Gordon of the Phillies, who gave up the HR to Holliday, sucks in the postseason... so this discussion kind of fits the threads original point...

Actually, just saw that the Rockies are pitching a rookie too. That game should be a high scoring affair.

Ball game. Rockies win! And I like their chances tomorrow against a rook.
