Good thing the Jays are never on SNB.
I have to hear Philips give his great "expertise" on the Jays and MLB every week during the season on TSN. It's quite sad to listen to.Member of the Official OS Bills Backers Club

Re: Thought ESPN Sunday Night games couldn't get any worse?
I personally can't stand Jon Miller. Someone noted his great PBP but he doesn't follow the action enough. He gets too side track talking about this and talking about that and what can I say about Joe Morgan? How did that man ever get a job talking about baseball? He's the Emmitt Smith of baseball.Atlanta Braves

Re: Thought ESPN Sunday Night games couldn't get any worse?
I think a lot of Miller's sidetracking is this need to involve Morgan in the telecast. Miller comes off as being forced to speak to Morgan so that the nation can hear Morgan's anecdotes.
I always got the impression that Miller would prefer to just call the play-by-play and have Morgan in a different room."It may well be that we spectators, who are not divinely gifted as athletes, are the only ones able to truly see, articulate and animate the experience of the gift we are denied. And that those who receive and act out the gift of athletic genius must, perforce, be blind and dumb about it -- and not because blindness and dumbness are the price of the gift, but because they are its essence." - David Foster Wallace

Yeah, I've heard him call some Giants (pretty sure) games on the radio and also have seen him without Morgan on TV. The guy is one of the best, IMO.Comment

Actually they are, but I just felt like saying that.
I prefer the crew that does the Nats games though.Originally posted by Edmund BurkeAll that is needed for the triumph of evil, is for good men to do nothing.Comment

Well thats just awesome.......as if listening to the two crackheads that announce Cubs games isnt bad enough( Bob and Len )I have to listen to these douchebags, assuming that the Cubs will be on SNB around 5 or 6 times.Twitch - bluengold34_osComment

This isn't too bad if you live near your home team. I can always drown in Michael Kay's questionable man-crush for Alex Rodriguez on YES. I'm pretty sure that my hearing is worse after listening to Michael Kay scream every other sentence. I don't think he knows how to whisper."It may well be that we spectators, who are not divinely gifted as athletes, are the only ones able to truly see, articulate and animate the experience of the gift we are denied.
