At least they backed off from Verlander. Another benefit from Celebgate.Rough Carrigan said:These dugout interviews are pointless. Every player's more tight lipped than Bill Belichick about what he did or does to win. Is there an intense charm to them that I'm completely missing?

Erm, make that the 2013 Red Sox. Although I still like the 2014 Red Sox more than the Cardinals.Norm Siebern said:I am sick of hearing Joe Buck have an orgasm whenever anything positive happens to hs beloved Cardinals. For that matter I will never tire of hearing Joe Buck be sad when the Cardinals fail.

Yeah, a similar one I remember was the year before in the world series when Alex Gonzalez (I think) hit a game winning homer and Buck's call was something like ". . that could be trouble! Deep down the line!" and I was wondering, trouble?! Trouble?! It's a thunderclap of joyous justice. Trouble?!glasspusher said:
I do remember on Bellhorn's HR in game 6 of the 2004 ALCS: "into the corner, big trouble...". I'll agree that doesn't sound biased
I like how they don't show the massive "fuck you" dump Buster took on the white linen sofa.glasspusher said:I want to see a version of the "stayed at dave's" commercial where the guy is so hung over he tells the dog: "Bark and I will shoot you"
