What’s with all the loud rock music blaring at the arenas and stadia? I can hardly goto a game anymore. I want baseball to be pastoral ala George Carlin and not try to compete with the NBA.

I know what you mean. I have been listening to the Dodgers on radio since 1958 and when I listen now, its rock and rap music with screaming announcers during the pregame show until Scully comes on then everything is alright. I just can't stand the yelling and screaming of some of these modern so called "sports announcers." ABC Sports Radio is one of the worst. Give me a break!

= = = = = = = = = = =

Was wondering if anyone else ‘noticed’ that for the MLB/TBS/ESPN ‘exclusive’ broadcasts of the playoffs that the stands background noise was ‘super excessive’ (it kind of reminded me of the ‘canned laughter’ in so called comedy shows) and as much as I ‘hate’ the majority of announcers if they say something the crowd noise shouldn’t be overriding the babble they are putting out.

Also, the few times I ‘saw’ Cal Ripken, his seemingly ‘lack of knowledge’ of basics caught me off guard.... Not trying to take anything away from him he just seemed ‘lost’ at times.

Just wondering etc....seemed ‘back to normal’ for the FOX coverage ???
