I know what it is what I hate about Joe Buck:

he never shuts up.

He doesn't embellish the World Series; just tells me what I'm already seeing. His comments are worthless.

He makes shit seem more important than it really is. He makes himself bigger than the game.

FOX over-produces the telecast too.

I'm watching the game with the volume turned off but listening to audio from the Dodgers feed on MLB. Much better.

ESPN radio is also streaming. As is Boston radio.

Honestly, I would prefer to listen to the guys(NESEN) that cover the Red Sox all year (in Boston) and the LA Dodgers who cover the team there. 4-3. Makes sense. More knowledgeable on the teamss on every possible discussion point.

I wish I could have the crowd noise and no play by play.

Just like when I am at the game. Have the scoreboard visable but nothing but the sounds from the ball park.

East Coast Red Sox fans from birth..retired to AZ...any time we get to listen to Jerry Remi, is a good time..with orcillo....now the Padres..

Dennis Eckersley...one of the best baseball analysts...as a pitcher, he knows of what he speaks...and he is soooo colorful....

When I heard Joe TNF..I shook my head..but better than the Monday night football try and have - Molly? call the game..oh dear...

I have another name for Joe..never mind....

Woo Hoo...2-1.....Hernandez okay...walkin' it off....
