Someone on Twitter mentioned that they’re being rewarded for bad behavior (considering the crappy season the Tigers are having).

The Tigers are 57-83. They won’t miss much.

What? No video of the big moment? I’m surprised.

Rod has had Self-Control issues for a long time.
Back then, it looked sort of entertaining, now, that behavior gets him effectively benched and off the air for a while.
Get it together Rod, or at very least, ask to work with somebody else.

Not the way to celebrate the 50 year anniversary of the 1968 World Series.

decided not to schedule Rod Allen and Mario Impemba for any future Tigers telecasts this season,"

Here's hoping that will apply to the team as well...........

They have ALL been horrible sportscasters.
I married a gal from Ohio and she cant get over the absolute dumb stuff they say to kill time.

“...and up next is Mike Trout... hes having a good season so far... Uhhh, I went out on a boat the other day...”

Fighting on the job should mean dismissal.

I really wish Yankees’ broadcasters Suzyn Waldman and John Sterling would get into a knock down drag out fight. I they make listening to home Yankees games intolerable. I seek out away feeds on SiriusXM just to avoid listening to them.

Suzyn “The Yankees bench is banging Stephen Drew on the head and now they’re banging each other!” Waldman
