ESPN and TBS can now officially fuck themselves in the ass for all I motherfucking care. No, really. In yet another case of motherfucking Midwestern Media Bias (forget East Coast and West Coast Media Bias, this is fifty bazillion cocksucking times worse than that,) TBS and EPN are ignoring baseball's hottest rivalry of the moment. Of course, I speak of the Phillies-Mets rivalry.
So which games did ESPN and TBS pick? TBS opted for the Cubs and the Brewers in Chi-town, while ESPN went with last year's flavor of the month, the Tampa Bay Rays against this year's flavor of the month, the Texas Rangers. Combined, these two teams coudn't draw flies with both honey and horseshit combined, considering the Rangers mascot is a damn palomino. So only viewers in the two biggest markets on the East Coast will see the Sunday afternoon tilt.
ONCE AGAIN, THIS BRAND NEW BALL OF ASSSHIT MOTHERCOCKSUCKFUCKING BITES, SHITFUCKEDUP BLOWS, TOTALLY AND COMPLETELY ONE MOTHERFUCKING HUNDRED COCKSUCKING PERCENT FUCKTARDED STINKS AND SUCKTACULARLY MOTHERCOCKFUCKING SUCKS ALL AT THE SAME MOTHERFUCKING TIME!
As the retired comedian Dennis Miller once said "Of course, that's just my opinion, I could be wrong."

Phils-Mets got one or 2 national games already this year, IIRC. And the game on July 4 is a Fox game. Imagine the outcry from others if Phils-Mets got 2 national TV slots on the same weekend. East Coast bias.....HELLO! And once we come down the stretch, I'm sure tWWL and TBS will pick up a game or 2. For starters, there is a weekend series in September which I'm sure if the race is still close, will end up on either Fox on Saturday and/or TBS or ESPN on Sunday. Besides, the TBS games get blacked out here anyway. And consider that with SNB comes Joe Morgan and Steve Phillips and with TBS comes Chip Caray and Buck Martinez (his voice drives me insane), I don't really care.
ReplyDeleteI'd actually applaud ESPN and TBS for not sticking straight with the east coast or west coast games and exploring some of the lesser markets (i.e. I don't think we'd have seen Rays-Rangers last year). We have a Fox game (which I'm sure will be seen by most of the country; the other games on Fox that day are Dodgers-Padres and Tigers-Twins), be happy with that.
I just noticed this. Check this out, JC, as I think it will greatly change your opinion about ESPN. According to the National Brodcast Schedule at MLB.com, after July 19, ESPN only has one game permanently slated. And that game is Sunday, September 13. I'll give you 3 guesses as to what that game is (and the first 2 don't count!)
ReplyDeleteLet me tell you what, for a midwestern media bias, to schedule a September game this early in advance, that's a whole hell of a lot of stock that ESPN is placing into Mets-Phils.
The only reason I'm pissed off now is because that's the other game I have this year and I won't be able to go now (I'll be back in Bloomsburg then and I have an early class the next day).
"after July 19, ESPN only has one game permanently slated. And that game is Sunday, September 13."
ReplyDeleteThis advanced scheduling was to ensure the Mets rid the Tri-State area from Secaucus to Bridgeport of chicken bones, removing any other excuse for choking in September.
