...with that in mind, I'm watching Joe Torre's Dodgers play the Red Sox =)
I almost blew a gasket when I turned on ESPN and they were covering Brett Farve's retirement press conference, at 1pm. C'mon, Bristol Boy's Club for Broadcasting has been covering this non-stop since Tuesday morning. (Of course, it beats college basketball, but, still...) Luckily, they moved the coverage over to ESPNNEWS, and a crisis was averted.
Well, of course, if you ask Hank Steinbrenner, ESPN created the Red Sox Nation.... And in the first fifteen minutes, the term "Red Sox Nation" has already been used at least seven times.
Peter Gammons is upcoming. I'm ready to hit the mute button. I can't stand that biased, marble-mouthed clown. His predictions are usually way off base, he rambles and mumbles his way though his segments, he's neither interesting nor entertaining. Though I did get a chuckle out of his stupidity the other day covering the Dodgers and Braves, coming back from a commercial, he blurted out something to the effect that he'd taken his steroids with breakfast. There was a pregnant pause before Gary Thorne was about to get out his plugs. If by steroids, he meant, "Centrum Silver," and by breakfast, he meant, "Muselix," then, its all good, but, otherwise, just another example of a thoughtless and inappropriate comment by a washed up reporter.
Dollars to donuts says that ESPN doesn't mention the BoSox scout who was just busted for punching the clown to a couple of teenagers in his hotel pool, a la Spade in Tommy Boy. (Hmm, I wonder if she is dating one of the... Yankees?)
