Playoff Baseball Announcing

I get various forms of this question a lot -- The short answer is: Yes, the TBS announcing crew for the Championship Series is horrible. And yes, Chip/Skip/Fwip Caray has broken Mike Brady's http://www.nndb.com/people/088/000024016/ career record for saying "fisted" on television.








But lost in all of this is the fact that former NY Mets pitcher, Ron Darling, is absolutely crushing it in his analysis on the TBS broadcasting team. It's the same type of lack of respect as when he was with the 1986 Mets -- Darling did a ton of coke but never got as much notice as guys like Strawberry, Gooden and Hernandez. Sometimes the truly great ones fly underneath the radar. Keep on doing what you're doing, Ronnie.
