Just a quick bitch session....
I never look forward to a game of the week on Fox because of the shoddy homework of the color analysts doing the game. McCarver coasts through whatever team he's doing, usually occupying most of his time to an all star caliber player or delving into the minutia of baseball probabilities instead of giving insight to the TWO rosters of players for the game.
Today however, it was ex-Dodger Eric Karros' turn. He's never been all that good to begin with, but he will at least go deeper than McCarver when discussing BOTH teams. He won't provide deep insight necessarily, but you can count on him to talk about BOTH teams. After watching today's Mets/Giants game I am going to revive my thoughts on Karros' ability as a baseball analyst.
His takes were alright, but I would add that his takes were 95% about the New York Mets. It was unbelievable. It didn't matter if the Giants were batting or in the field, he talked non-stop about the Mets.
One funny note: with two outs and two strikes in the bottom of the ninth Karros actually said and I'm not joking...."In getting back to the Mets, I think it's important that they take....".....blah, blah, blah.......You've got to be kidding me...."Get back to the Mets?....YOU NEVER STOPPED TALKING ABOUT THEM."
I get it...they're a good team. I also understand the only reason the Giants were televised nationally is because they were playing the Mets. GET OVER IT. New York...get over yourself...your national broadcasts are a joke.
Do your homework, talk about THE OTHER TEAM for a couple of innings. Any insights?
Didn't think so.
