But I'll bet you are crazy about Peter Gammons.

As a Red Sox fan, I'm a fan of Gammons; however, I'm definitely aware of his bias. So, you're a fan of Joe Morgan?

Not a fan of Gammons, but Joe Morgan was one of the all time worst as far as I am concerned. He made the game almost unwatchable. Now if they just get rid of McCarver.

For the record, I was a HUGE fan of Little Joe as a player when I was growing up in Cincinnati in the Big Red Machine days. I admit I've never been crazy about him as an analyst. I did like Jon Miller.

If we have to sacrifice Miller for Morgan to get the boot, I'll take it. I used to cringe every time we'd get a Rafael Four-cal reference.

The way Miller botched Hispanic names was enough to make you cringe. And he wasn't really that good anyways. He was consistent, but a bit annoying, and he fed Morgan's stupidity.

Now we need to get Fox to can Buck and McCarver.

I believe the boys in Cooperstown might have a little something to say about that...

BJ, is he in Cooperstown as an analyst, or as a player?
Sheesh, c'mon Beej!

He's referring to Jon Miller who never played in the Major Leagues.

And Gammons is in the HOF too, right?
And Pete Rose isn't.
I don't care what Cooperstown says.

Oops, my bad. My apologies, BJ. Then that is crazy.

Miller sounded pretty overly practiced on those names..he knew them because he's the giants play by play man so it's not like he only called one game a week. Joe Morgan and tim Mccarver are both flat out awful. Morgan would take up for Manny Ramirez if he murdered someone. The guy lost all credibility with most people in baseball circles long ago.
