Wow, I really didn't know anyone liked Joe Buck. He's the biggest douche bag in sports IMO. Chip Caray is great, though. The combo of him and Joe Simpson makes watching Braves games very interesting and educational. They aren't boring and seem to know every thing that has to do with baseball.

Don Orsillo is actually only terrible. I thought he'd be completely insufferable like when he does the Red Sox games.

As much as I can't listen to Buck doing a Yankees game, at least Fox makes it FEEL like a playoff game. With TBS I feel like I'm watching a Nationals/Marlins Thursday afternoon game.

I'm up in the air as of right now. I like Don Orsillo and Joe Simpson. I couldn't watch the Angels-Red Sox game, but Dick Stockton and whoever he was with were hard to handle. At least get more people that actually have called baseball in their careers.

ESPN Radio has good teams lined up. Gary Thorne and Steve Phillips, Dan Schulman and Dave Campbell, John Sciambi and Buck Martinez.

Dick Stockton was killing me with his mispronunciations. And I mean this was easy last names...the kind of last names you'd know how to pronounce if you watched a lick of baseball.

Stick to football Dick.

Soto not Sato
Kwah-dee not Quaid (Cubs 3rd base coach Mike Quade)
Marmol not Mar-MOL

There were some others as well as some completely ridiculous statements.

Also, has everyone heard about this cool new show called FrankTV? But before you check it out, do you think you're the sexiest fan alive?
