Do You Like Tim McCarver? - The Horrible Esthete - 10-20-2004
I want to get a Hipbase tally....
- grooveless touque - 10-20-2004
Who in their right mind watches Fox for anything??? If that was my only choice, I'd watch the webcast!
I'm saying "no" because he's guilty by association! :rambo:
- cferneyh - 10-20-2004
No, because his head has been up Jeter's ass for so long that he's lost all touch with reality.

Looks like Mr. Stephen Dame has cast his vote....

I haven't voted yet. But when I saw this poll, my first reaction was "wow... we're really scraping the bottom for poll topics now."
I guess when everything else has been done: baseball announcers.
For the benefit of the argument, the statements that started this:
"As I've said before, I love the guy. He's got an unpretenious genuine appeal to him, and he knows his stuff. He's got an amazing historical reference range: one of those guys who can tell you who was on deck when Mazeroski hit it out.
I find Leiter to be forced, repetitive and confrontational.
It's television, it's entertainment, and if I can get a little history or a funny anecdote out of it, then all the better.
There's a reason McCarver had his job for so long and with so many networks.
Plus, the history he has with Joe's (Joe Buck) dad and their real on-air chemistry are part of what makes them a great package."
Now, I'll go vote... (although IMO, I think the #1 answer will be "who cares.")

you ever heard of sarcasm? What is it with people in this forum, you make one joke or comment and people wait like tigers to pounce on you!

And Stephen voted yes just to spite popular opinion.

How am I supposed to tell that it's 'sarcasm'? Remember, nobody can read tone of voice......
- Lizard King - 10-20-2004
exactley, so why then pipe up with a wise-ass answer?
- The Horrible Esthete - 10-20-2004
I believe you made the first wise-ass answer - remember?
Am I on the LD board?

Right. Because the points posted to validate my opinion must have just vanished into thin air. Anybody who disagree's with you guys can't have a reasoned opinion.
And I hate to break it to you, and your groupthink, but Tim has a job because, in general, mine IS the popular opinion.
