Your MLB Announcing Schedule For The Weekend
Thursday, May 08, 2008
Here's your MLB announcing schedule for the weekend and it looks to be a good one. Why? No Buck or McCarver! I'm not sure why FOX decided to use a St. Louis play by player and a Brewers analyst for the Cards-Brewers game, but that's who you get if you're in the Midwest. Interesting idea for a day.
Here's the rest of the sched....

Joe Buck needs two days to recover from his "Celebrity" Spelling Bee?
YES!!!! No Yankees. We get Diamondbacks vs. Cubs here in Nashville. Woo-hoo.
Dick Stockton!!! I can't wait to hear him bitcher all the hispanic names.
I'm guessing the McLaughlin-Schroeder team is being used to cut costs since they will already be in Milwaukee and won't have to fly anybody in for a game that is going to 8% of the country.
Luckily, I have a family function that will keep me from seeing the Evil Empire on TV.
I get the Cardinals and Brewers from the Memphis FOX station.
Wow... McLaughlin gets picked up for a "network" game.... That clearly won't make his head any bigger than it already is.
yankees tigers should be the espn sunday night game
Clutch,
You are right. Who would want to watch 2 first place teams, when you could watch a .500 team and a team 5 games under .500 duke it out?
Joe Buck must be pissed at the Tigers - he hasn't done any of their games since the World Series two years ago.
Not that I'm complaining.
Dammit! Sad Yankees fan in Cincinnati here. Cubs-D'backs is a good matchup but I hate missing any NYY games.
FYI the Daily Show guest tonight was a blogger/author discussing issues similar to the sports ones debated here recently (i.e. MSM's attitude towards blogs/bloggers). Of course it was geared towards political blogs but much of the same principles apply.
I Guess the idea to use a St. Louis play by play Man and a Brewers analyst for the Cards-Brewers Game Is Fox Sports' Idea of "Fair And Balanced" Broadcasting.
McLaughlin is the Cards TV voice. Schroeder is the Brewers TV analyst.
