Bravo, ESPN.

PrintTurned on ESPN in time to catch the O's-Stros highlights on Baseball Tonight. What can I say, I'm a glutton for punishment. Anyway, that ESPNews reject Dari Nowkhah was hosting, but at least it wasn't that ass-clown Steve "Fill Thine Horn with Oil and Go Kill Yourself" Berthaiume. Boy, was Dari in rare form. Over the course of the highlights, he managed to state the following:
1) That the Orioles won in the bottom of the ninth.
b) Kevin Millar drove in both runs.
Later, during Touch 'Em All, he noted that Luke Scott was part of the Erik Bedard trade. That's strike three, but hey, who's counting? It's just the Orioles.

I can't believe I saw Iron Maiden tonight instead
Metal over beis-ball? I’m straight slippin’.
What is best in life? To crush your enemies, see them driven before you, and to hear the lamentation of the women.

If it had been September and we were within 5 games
I’d bust you. In June? Still early enough to skip ONE game for Maiden.
Like Sum 41 sings:
Heavy Metal and mullets – it’s how we were raised
Maiden and Priest were the gods that we praised

Don't quote Sum 41 at me, Duck
Are you kidding? I’d quit my cushy job for 5 games out in September. Besides, Mrs. Rayford was kicking me scores by text every half-inning, so good times were had by all.

I lived through '82
I ain’t quitting any jobs until the playoffs actually start.

Yeah.
They also dismissed the job Tom Trembley and Randy MacPhail have been doing because we all know the O’s must fail dismally this year. They predicted so!
What else did you guys hear?
I don't have an ESPNsider account
but maybe Buster Olney has a few nice (or at least factually correct) things to say about the O’s:
ugh
This “Chatter Up” BS on BBTN right now is tiring.
Who cares what uninformed idiots think? The Rays need Griffey? Fuck that. Even the BBTN B-team (Berthiaume, Perez, Olney excepted) shouldn’t have to react to some numbskull in New York’s dumbass opinion.
Screw ESPN
The only baseball teams that they care about are the Pink Hat Nation and MFY.
Geaux Eaux's
One of whom
got beat 6-0 (our man Corey hit a HR off the upper deck facade) which puts us 1/2 game out of third, and the other is getting beat 8-2… thank you dice-k.
"Chickens are hard to catch." Jennifer Scott (Luuuuuuuke's Mom)
And on First and Ten today...
Skip Bayless just spent 90 seconds arguing why it’s bad for baseball that the Rays are successful, because he and other fans don’t know any of their players, so it’s bad for ratings, therefore bad for baseball.
I’m not kidding.

Of course...
now Skip is saying Gilbert Arenas will go to Golden State for less money rather than stay with the Wiz, who just resigned Jamison, like Gilbert asked them to. This man is an idiot.

Skip Bayless is a clueless, boring, and predictable attention-whore. He’s the Don Imus of TV sports.
"Yesterday I was lying, today I am telling the truth." -- Bob Arum
Don Imus actually knows what he's talking about
on a very small sample size of subjects. Very small set. Like Delbert McClinton. Skip Bayless is clueless on ALL subjects.

Also BBQ sauce
His brother Fred’s been in the business longer than Good Ole JR has.
You can't fix stupid. Stupid is forever.
