I don't want to be presumptuous and contend that I have a great mind but from time to time over the course of my blogging I am scooped by another blogger, reporter or TV news report. Case in point this morning. The NYTimes carried a tongue and cheek story of the 2 very annoying Yankee Radio announcers, Susan Waldman and John Sterling.
If I am listening to the game on the radio, I go out of my way to find another play by play as the 2 are so sugar sweet on the Yankess, who this year are a shell of themselves. They are anemic.
Sterling, ever the pitchman, can't say 2 sentences without tying it into some promotion for a bank, insurance company, cereal, car or other commodity.
"That first pitch at 95 miles per hour was brought to you by...."
"That was the 15th out and you can save 15% on car insurance"
and on and on
Mel and Red are turning over in their graves, "How 'bout that?"
