For the record, I grew up in the Tri-State NY Metropolitan area. I watched Yankees games and Met games, on either WPIX (Channel 11) or WOR (Channel 9) and Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28221516.post-86941716072015941492009-10-14T16:23:22.913-04:002009-10-14T16:23:22.913-04:00@G-Loud suits aside, Sager is a FANTASTIC sideline...@G-Loud suits aside, Sager is a FANTASTIC sideline guy.

I always get a kick of how the announcers obsess about the shadows and how the hitters have trouble seeing the ball. Well, they play the GD game at night. Oh, sorry, we can't because baseball gets Bud-bleeped every year by $elig. Is he the most ineffectual clown in sports?

The TV networks control sports so look at the TV schedules. The LDS series had so many off days and now there's a 4-day gap until the beginning of the LCS. In the LCS, there are off days betweens Game 4 and 5 in both series for some reason. It's not a travel day, it's so that the networks can show the games in primeAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28221516.post-39279361335880387132009-10-13T22:51:45.499-04:002009-10-13T22:51:45.499-04:00Seriously, of whom does Craig Sager have incrimina...Seriously, of whom does Craig Sager have incriminating pictures?
