CubKilla Posted October 8, 2003 Share Posted October 8, 2003 These 3 tools damn near jizzed themselves when ShamME FINALLY came through in the clutch in the bottom of the 9th to tie the game. Dead silence when Lowell hit the go-ahead in the 11th. f*** them. If ShamME would have won that game, I guarantee the three of them would have had a circle-jerk to ShamME on-the-air. So much for an "unbiased" NATIONAL broadcast. Now the Marlins fans know how we feel to be second fiddle when it comes to the f***ing Cubs. :fyou Brenneman, :fyou Lyons, and :fyou Leiter. Most of all..... :fyou FOX!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Tizzle Posted October 8, 2003 Share Posted October 8, 2003 When Fox News Chicago was doing the post game show I was paying attention to the tone in their voices when the two homeruns were highlighted. When sammy hit it the three of them were going nuts compared to Brenneman being the only one who called the Lowel shot. The medias biased reporting of the Cubs will only make it sweeter when they are eliminated. They will probably cry that their loveable cubbies arent in it.

DBAHO Posted October 8, 2003 Share Posted October 8, 2003 All I remember from da commentary was Al Leiter goin on about how u throw a fastball properly. :fthecubs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YASNY Posted October 8, 2003 Share Posted October 8, 2003 You have to admit, those homeruns were under very different circumstances. The Cubs were down to their last bullet when Soso hit his. The Lowell HR was big, but it wasn't quite a dramatic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsider2k5 Posted October 8, 2003 Share Posted October 8, 2003 Actually I was pretty impressed with Leiter in general in the booth. He really made Brennemen and Lyons sound like complete idiots for most of the game. He was very clearly articulate, sharp, and insightful; where as Lyons espesially is so gimmicky that it sounds awful when you get someone smart in the booth. I would take Leiter in our booths over both Farmer and DJ, in a heartbeat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL I hate to say this, but some of you guys have way too much time on your hands if you are so worried about s*** like this? No wonder Sox fans have an inferiority complex.... they go looking for it! Relax, watch baseball and don't compare every word that is said to how it relates to the Sox. Try and enjoy playoff baseball, whether your team is in it or not. It's actually a lot of fun! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry Chappas Posted October 8, 2003 Share Posted October 8, 2003 The only thing I had a problem with was Lyons saying that the runner interferred when he was tagged on the Grudzy play. He then stated what a great call it was. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How can a guy who had a total 130 RBI's in a 11 year carrer critisize and tell player how to do.. Lyons is a Tool! Remember Brenamen was a former cub broadcaster, I'm sick of him talking about the dam turnaround of the Cubs, from 95 losses last season.. SO WHAT we already know. Leiter was OK. McCarver is another Tool Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lowell's was a game winner and Lowell's was hit with a left hand that probably isn't completely healed yet either. You're right. That's nothing to get excited about Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're right on the money cause all these f***ers did was cheerlead for the Scrubs during the Atlanta series & its more of the same here. I mute the TV during the games and put on music instead.

I think the Boston-Oakland series and the Marlins-Giants were the best so far and the game last night was great entertainment. This is the time of year to just be a baseball fan period.

The Cubs have been playing to a national audience over WGN for years. OF COURSE Fox is going to play to that. They know what they need to do to draw viewers. It's all about $$$$$.
