I've found the cure for the McCarverisms.
Thankfully I have a DVR, and I let it record the first hour of the game. I then watch the game and fast-forward from the second the ump makes a call to the point that the pitcher is about to release his pitch.
Unfortunately we get plays like the one where Lugo cut in front of Pedroia and booted the ball. See Pedroia would have had that ball much to the vehement proclamation from McCarver that "Lugo had to get to that ball because he knew Pedroia would have no chance on it"...this is after 1 kajillion replays showing Mini-Me in PERFECT position to field that ball...
I plan on watching the game Saturday night, but unfortuantely there will be no DVR action, so that means MUTE!
*rant over*
After Lofton dropped his bat on the obvious strike, how about the look of angry bemusement (is that even possible) on Beckett's face when he finally climbed back on the mound. It was a "Yeah nice try Kenny, but that sh&t won't work on me" mixed with "You're toast now dude"

Frank TV? Dane Cook?
NEITHER are a match against the DVR, even though THERE CAN BE ONLY ONE OCTOBER!
Dave: I believe, however, that there IS only one actober.
Joe Posnanski writes for the Kansas City Star. His newspaper columns are terrific but his blog (not associated with the Star) is amazing. He had a piece a couple days ago on Manny that was just excellent. I think Baegirl and her readers would like it, even though Posnanski is a Cleveland fan since childhood.
McCarver is simply a washed-up hack.
"money's on the table, bitch"
LMAO. So true. Love it.
