That's one of the things missing from most modern announcers. Character.

That's why I miss Madden so much.

It's one of the reasons I like Romo. He has a personality.

But, people hate him as an announcer for some reason. I have never understood it.

People hated Harry Caray, too.

He was definitely a love/hate thing. I loved him.

Those people are retarded. Harry Carey was one of the game’s gems.

Union.

 

[Cotton]

Union.

And, if you have ever done any umping you know that umpire yells "FOUL" when they call it foul. That means the runner may have slowed causing him to be out. Just terrible.

 

[Texas Ace]

This USA/Venezuela game has been great.

 

[Texas Ace]

Sucks that the US didn't win it, but that was the best WBC of all time.

And no exaggeration, Shohei Otani is the greatest baseball player I've ever seen.

He is something else. He is a FA after this season and it's going to be interesting to see the amount of money tossed his way.

Struck out Trout to win it.

Typical eagles fan.

Is Trout an Eagles fan?

 

[Genghis Khan]

Is Trout an Eagles fan?

Yep, he's from Philly. Goes to their games and all.

Alex Rodriguez said it best last night -- there's elite and then there's Shohei Otani who is in a 2 man class.

It's Babe Ruth and him. That's the entire list of players of that type.

I'd be shocked if he doesn't receive the greatest contract in MLB history.
