Oh, yes, I do. You're a fan of the team that they propagandize for.
Actually I used to love listening to the baseball on the radio and that team has taken it away from me as I cannot stand them, but McCarver is worse to me.

Gods, I hate both of them, but Waldyn is significantly worse. Makes me hate being in the car when a Yankee game is on. I want to follow the game, but I don't want to listen to them.

And here's a sample of Sterling's incompetence and clueless bluster:

The two of them together makes my hair catch fire.

why did I select that link? I know how bad she is.

Oh, my goodness gwacious! That was embarrassing.



One of the things that I really dislike about her and Sterling is they make it impossible for me to listen to a game on the radio. Sometimes, when I'm going to sleep, I like to listen to a ballgame. Or if I'm working outside in the summer, nothing better than a ballgame to pass the time. And listening to a good radio team can make me a fan of that team.

I'm always going to be a Pirate fan, but when I lived between Baltimore and Washington, I got to listen to the Joe Angel, Jon Miller team and they made me a fan of the Orioles. Waldman and Sterling have turned me against the Yankees, which is amazing to me. That's how bad they suck.

Dick Vitale - voice and mannerisms are like fingernails on a chalkboard for me.
