After watching the most exciting night of “regular season” baseball in my lifetime, and some great ESPN post-game analysis, I’m heading to bed.

As much as I would love to wake up tomorrow and get some great “morning after” perspective (i.e. Karl Ravech, Bobby Valentine, Scott Van Pelt, and - yeah, ok, maybe - Stuart Scott), I’m sure I’m going to be stuck having to mute your dumb ass.

Maybe you’re a good husband and/or father, I don’t really give a shit. But you are the worst, most annoying ESPN anchor, this side of Chris Berman. On any other morning when you’re on, I’d just flip the channel to the local news/weather, or the latest Saved By The Bell rerun.

But no, not tomorrow. I’m going to sit through your bullshit schtick, just for when the script switches to your tolerable co-anchor, so I can hopefully re-live some of the excitement of Wednesday night.

So thank you Neil Everett, for beating me down to nothing - even before I sit through a 70-minute commute to arrive at a soul-sucking cubicle job. Fuck you, Neil Everett.

If you don’t have MLB Network you’re missing out. Much better analysis than ESPN.

The best part? No Chris Berman or Bobby Valentine!

Wow, I didn’t know you did the incognito thing on message boards, [Jim](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9HNgqQVHI_8). You had to know you couldn’t hide from the Clones forever. Can I have your autograph?
