Bossanoveralls Posted February 23, 2023 Share Posted February 23, 2023 Why does it seem like Gordo is just a dumb jock that has been handed a job that he doesn't have to take seriously and doesn't, who knows that he will be stuck in our faces regardless which gives him a certain arrogance that comes through the screen in spades? He is a dingbat. An entitled dingbat, but dingbat through and through. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is a dingbat. An entitled dingbat, but dingbat through and through. That's why I like AJ or DJ ten times more doing their own version of analysis. Even Black Jack McDowell. The only one who could possibly be worse than Beckham is Ventura, but I sincerely doubt even that. He's like a frat boy mixed withSan overall inflated belief in his own cultural footprint and beliefs being more important or valuable than anyone else's.

White Sox Park Posted February 23, 2023 Share Posted February 23, 2023 When Beckham is on with Jason, I usually last 2 innings, before switching over the the radio side, or the other teams feed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His voice is kind of annoying. That can be worked on. I think he's ok. DJ on the radio isn't perfect either. I think Stoney gets an A-plus for his work. Benetti an A to A-minus. DJ: A B-minus or B. Gordo a C with potential to get to a B. Len: Not my cup of tea yet so a B- to C. For Caulfield, Royals announcers: Denny Mathews a B to A-minus. His sidekick Lefevre a B. Physioc a C (enunciates too much IMO). Jeff Montgomery: B. Stewart: Not my cup of tea but a B to B-. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3GamesToLove Posted February 24, 2023 Share Posted February 24, 2023 The hirings of Benetti and Kasper suggest that the team realizes the importance of having a professional broadcaster in the booth after rolling with a "four former players" arrangement for a long time. I'd be pretty surprised if Beckham winds up being a Benetti replacement. Stone replacement is much more likely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"We’ve got the NBA intergalactic platform,” Walton told The Post. “We’ve got the world’s greatest basketball players. We’ve got the business. We’ve got the entertainment. We’ve got the sports world. We’ve got the celebration of life and health and all good things here. We have fantastic guests. I’m the luckiest guy in the world. We are set for blastoff and the volcanic eruption on Monday night Jan. 23. Seven o’clock Pacific time, be there. Miss this at your own peril. You’ve been suitably warned. I’m fired up."
