View Full Version : A TV Networks Nightmare just happened

When Colorado beat Philly in the NLDS, just now, the TV networks must have really been pissed.

Their ideal NLCS would have been the Cubs and the Phillies, two established baseball franchises, with knowledgeable fans, and a nationwide audience of Cubs and Philly fans everywhere.


Colorado and Arizona would have been the worst possible matchup to happen if you were a network executive.

My guess is that series will have the lowest viewer ratings in history.

The fans here, in Arizona, for example are the world's worst, most ignorant, and don't know the difference between a sacrifice fly and a sacrificial lamb.

And GOD forbid you should stand up in front of one of them and cheer.

They need little activities and games between every half inning to keep the spectators occupied.

They arrive late, leave early, and don't walk down the aisle from the sushi stand if play is in progress. Only between innings are you allowed to walk down the aisles to get to your seat.

And the stadium, here in Arizona, is a cold looking and ffeling mausoleum.

The network execs will be rolling over in their sleep tonight.

When I think of Tim McCarver I can't stop thinking about how the last 2 innings of the last Cubs-Sox game they did, he kept raving "There hasn't been 2 1-0 games between the cubs and red sox in 50 years!!!!" or something even more stupid.

My BP rose every time he said it. It was the worst statistic ever. I can't stand the guy. If there wasn't a time delay for the radio announcing I would definitely take that.
