Any time i see a big number from this offense i wish it would be a little bit smaller and the next game a bit bigger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buck, isnt a part of some new renaissance of media. Doing things a new way, the way of the future. You keep attacking the job because you like buck. You keep trying to redefine it, so it fits buck. Its fine, you like buck. I understand why. But that doesnt change the fact, he doesnt do the job well. Its not just fangraphs. realgm, BJB, and just about any other base of blue jays fans. Go look at the threads based around buck/tabby. Youll see a resounding one sided opinion. http://www.huffingtonpost.ca/ken-becker/blue-jays-announcers-prom_b_7909406.html http://tipofthetower.com/2016/04/08/toronto-blue-jays-pat-bucks-dimwitisms/ Thats a guy whose a fan of them defending them xD LOL ok so you quote a bunch of clueless internet message board users. I can go to multiple message boards and find people who think they would make a better GM/coach than people who do it professionally but it doesn't make it remotely true. People who spend most of their days browsing the internet seem to think that reddit/twitter/etc. represent the majority when in fact it is the minority... by a wide margin.

If we crush them in the first two, the rangers could fold up shop early. They are about as un clutch as it gets in the play offs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I havent listened to a sox game on their side. Is he that next level bad that compares to other sports casters like jack armstrong? or just the worst in baseball?

Never said they were the best. 20th seems more reasonable to me, as in they are roughly average. As for the article itself, the guy freely admits he doesn't even watch any other broadcasters. So much for impartiality! He basically just parrots what everyone else says. No one thinks for themselves anymore and you're making a great example of that, being unable to form an argument other than linking to obscure message boards and articles by nobodies.

bustamente Posted October 7, 2016 Report Share Posted October 7, 2016 Hawk Harrelson takes being a homer to the extreme but he is mildly entertaining, as for Buck at one time he was a good colour guy but as a pbp guy he is terrible, magnified when Dan Sluman is in the booth.

It couldnt be you and a small group of fans that like him with the majority disliking him right? The bevy of articles, and forum posts, and reddit posts, and ranking 20th out of the 30 teams in opinion pole is clearly the minority right? 1 minute ago, Atomic said: Never said they were the best. 20th seems more reasonable to me, as in they are roughly average.

Most people dont actively watch the broadcasts from other teams. That would mean that his views for the articles were fairly un biased. Did you miss the part where there was a fan vote as well? And no team receiving more C votes then the jays? The jays set up isnt pederson bad, but its bad. Again you think because its an opinion you dont share, its held by no bodies and people who dont think for them self. You claim its a vocal minority, with nothing but because you like him. You attack people who hold the opinion because you dont share it. Just like you tried to blame it on the classic role of the PBP job being broken, not buck. Are you donald trump? How much proof can you bring up that says hes good at PBP? Blue Jays Announcers Promote the Mute Button Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wbbfan Posted October 7, 2016 Report Share Posted October 7, 2016 The decision to use stroman really looking good. Letting us get the best of our rotation to start against texas is paying off.
