It's just a bad mix all around, Bill. Each of the three has individual merits. But instead of having "The Three Tenors", it's like mixing Frank Sinatra with L.L. Cool J and George Strait!!!

What I would give to hear Scully/Garagiola, Costas/Kubek or even Michaels/Palmer/McCarver (when Tim was actually good)!
Those were the days for GREAT postseason announcers!
Time to break out what is, IMO, one of the most amazing stats in sports. IF the Red Sox lose either tomorrow OR Thursday, you'll be seeing this stat a lot:
Since 1999 the Red Sox have played in 17 postseason elimination games............they are 14-3 in those games!!!

My personal favorite pairing was Scully/ Garagiola. A few years ago while in Phoenix, Vinny sat down with Joe for a chat. It was absolutely hilarious! The years melted away and the old friends began to tell stories as only they can. PRICELESS!!!
Yuck. With the Browns/Giants game being broadcast locally on our FOX affiliate, the NLCS game has been moved to channel: My Network TV, in lowly standard definition. It's barely viewable.
Why is it that My Network doesn't have an HD feed? They have some pretty good shows, but I can't stand watching SD any more!
I have no idea, but this channels SD feed seems even worse than most other SD feeds.
It's being simulcast on the Fox affiliate in Cleveland.
When the Pats are on ESPN or NFLN, their games are simulcast on Boston's ABC affiliate.
Yes, that would be great

You didn't care for Michaels/Palmer/McCarver, Jimbo?
Gotcha. I don't blame him, although I found him a little more tolerable in his ABC days.
I thought Al Michaels was a superb baseball play-by-play guy.
I liked the others much better, never have liked McCarver either
Joe and Tony were great back in the day.
I like Joe Morgan and (da** I can never remember the other guy)
I caught a little bit of Vin Scully tonight on the Dodgers' network on XM.
Vin and Ernie Harwell will always be right up there in my book.
