why do they keep having Chris Berman do commentary? i think he could be the most annoying commentator ever. i didn't need those stupid cliches with nearly every player's name. furthermore, i was a little peeved that the camera was staying on the player when they were hitting home runs. i don't want to see Anderson's reaction to the HR i didn't see until it's about 5 ft from landing in the seats. it's funny watching those kids in the outfield though. one of them will be stading right under the ball waiting and some kid will come out of nowhere and totally cut him off.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!! I am so sick and friggen tired of espn thinking that we "The FAns" want a camera angle of each batter which enable us to count their nasal hairs. I DO NOT CARE ABOUT THE EXTREME CLOSE-UPS. I want the camera behind the batter so I can see the swing and the entire flight of the ball that was just crushed!!!.....OK I'm done

I enjoyed the Derby this year. That might have been because I bet on Albert Pujols. So I had a lot of suspense. But it was one of the closest homerun derbies of recent history

Surprisingly I found myself glued to the post-derby softball game. The best part was when Jimmy Kimmell did a full-on face plant when he went after a pop-up between home plate and the pitcher. He must have gotten a mouth-full of grass and dirt.

It was also cool to see Bo Jackson running around. That guy was a stud!

I hated it how Berman would say "ITS INTO LAKE MICHIGAN" every damn time.

The camera angle was horrible. We needed a behind the batter type thing so we could see the home runs. Also, Berman was worse than ever. Albert "Winnie the Pooh"jos. That was horrible. I don't know if that was worse the Gary Shef"Field of Dreams" Does he think he is funny?
