    Can Colvin play 3rd base?

    I'm glad they are letting the rest of the country share the Super Bowl. People are going to watch it wherever they play, and it will sell out whether its in New Jersey or Kansas City. I might actually go to some of the festivities in Indianapolis in 2012.

    Was it a steroid induced suffocation into a pillow?

    How are you not happy with Silva and Gorzelanny. Until they start playing like crap I'm happy with them. Lets just ride out their hotstreaks. Although I would give them a short leash when they cool off (meant more for Silva than Gorz).

    I was wondering about Mark Grace too. Is he still doing the D-Backs? He was my favorite player growing up and I always thought he was funny.

    They should never let Tim McCarver and Joe Buck do a game together on a neutral station ever again. Tim is just an idiot anyway.

    I cut myself to relieve the pain.

    New to this so I don't know what a troll is, and for the record I am not offended by being questioned about it, just calling it like I saw it on a small sample size of watching other teams broadcasters and I am interested in seeing other peoples opinions on the topic. I hope we didn't get off on the wrong foot.

    I have to disagree on the Reds, and maybe its because they haven't been real competitive recently. From what I've watched they seem to keep their cool when calls dont go their way, except for when Jeff Brantley is on, he is just terrible and seems cocky. The Mets guys may not be that bad but the other day they kept going on about how you need to pitch Soriano inside because he crowds the plate. If they have ever watched him play they would have know to throw him a slider low and out of the zone. I guess that just left a bad impression on me. And yes OleMissCubs, the Mariners announcers are horrible but I do like watching them play for some reason.

    Don't know if this is already being discussed, I'm new to the site. If it is feel free to move it. I have recently subscribed to the MLB extra innings, and I get to see some of the other announcers for the first time. After watching some of the other teams I have come to the conclusion that the Cubs announcers are not that bad. That being said, I dont mind when an announcer on his home station cheers for his own team. I Just dont like it when they announce on a neutral station and do the same thing (Tim McCarver and Joe Buck). One of my biggest pet peaves is when they refuse to acknowledge other teams talent or success, which is one of the qualities of Bob Brenley (Sp.) and Len Kasper, or when they refuse to admit that a close call was actually correct when it goes against there team. A few I like: Reds (Except for when Jeff Brantley is on there) Astros Rays Orioles Cubs (May be a little biased) Cubs radio (May be very biased) Royals A few I hate Cardinals (Not being biased they just really suck) Red Sox White Sox Mets of course Joe Morgan FOX announcers (other than Family Guy I just hate FOX) Just wanted to hear some other opinions and to get an idea of some other teams to watch when the Cubs aren't on.
