TBS Major League Baseball Is Terrible!

Major League Baseball coverage on TBS really sucks ass!

The visual part of the TBS broadcast isn't bad, and I like that the show the pitch track on every pitch, but the commentators are terrible, and the cameramen play along. When the commentators talk incessantly about Fielded, Braun, Weeks, and others, the cameramen train their cameras on whatever player they are spewing their praises at - then, in the very next sentense, disparage the St Louis Cardinals. I don't have anything against the Brewers players, other than the duchebag Nyjer Morgan, but the announcers should be replaced before the game on Sunday.

Up until tonight, I've been getting together with a group of friends to watch The Cardinals play in the playoffs, and we decided early on to turn down the volume on the TV so we don't have to listen to these shit-head anti-St Louis commentators. Instead, we turn on the radio and listen to the game on KMOX.

Tonight though, I was forced to listen to the shitty commentating done by Brian Anderson, John Smoltz, and Ron Darling, because I was sitting in a bar watching the game with my girlfriend after work. My girlfriend knows almost nothing about sports, but she even mentioned how one-sided the coverage was.

These jackasses are completely pulling for the Brewers, and saying stupid shot like "I just hope we get all of these errors out of the system before heading home.", after a Milwaukee player made an error on the field.

I would hate to be one of the advertisers, who spent a lot of money to place their TV advertisement during the NLCS, only to realize that the majority of the City of St Louis, and tens of thousands of Cardinals fans scattered through other states, are not able to hear the advertisement because they all have muted TBS.

Anyone who feels the same should use this TBS Contact Form to let TBS know how you feel.

  1. Even the TBS NLCS promo ads suck! Their ad features mostly Prince Fielder and the Brewers, as if the Cardinals were not even in the series.

    Guess that will change when the Cardinals wrap op the NLCS, and move on to the World Series.

    And to T-Puss Nyjer Morgan - Who's chasing who now, you dumbass.
