Re: post here when announcers (or the media) say or do something stupi
did ESPN really say that 'most important game between non-ranked teams' crap?
Wow.
Just when I thought the bashing is way too much and out of hand they end up doing something so ridiculous that it makes me thing there isn't nearly enough bashing of them.
No self-respecting announcer or organization would ever say this.
In other news: I think some of the things posted already really aren't THAT stupid.
Not that some guys aren't pretty dumb nor is it that hard a freaking job just to talk about sports and have SOME kind of a clue...but when guys are on the air that much there's bound to be some slip-ups or just some plain-old dumb things said.
I would be scared to death for you guys to listen to me when I was a broadcast or if I ever get back into broadcasting again. I said some pretty dumb stuff daily I think....and still do around here I guess.
Regarding Joe's "grander scheme of things"...it might be one of the few times I partly agree with him.
TEX scores 30 on BAL. Then if they lose 4-2, 5-3, 7-2 and 5-1 they stilll have a + run-diff. I'm not quite as impressed by the overall run-diff or win-projection type stats as maybe I should be.
It's about winning it on the field and some runs really are more valuable than others.
