rangers' announcer

[OnWisconsin]

"i'm gonna go ahead and make the call (HR call) here. this is gettin silly. we're getting shut out by sydney ponson for god's sake."

As soon as I hear an announcer refer to a team as "we," that's when I hit the mute button.

i don't know why i feel the need to share the banter of the ranger announcers today, but here's another nugget from the 8th inning....

"if you have a glutious maximous, does that mean you also have a glutious minimus?"hno:

maybe that should go in the lame jokes thread courtesy of tom grieve

i was wondering why they couldnt score on Ponson either...it was my fav play of the day....they finally broke thorugh against the bullpen, and have now broke it open, but still, cant believe Ponson held them down..

they were getting men on against him, but just couldn't get them home. he did have some damn good movement on his pitches though.

and the last last one from our friendly ranger announcers:

"the rangers meat loaf the royals in the series -- 2 out of 3 ain't bad"

"meat loaf the royals" I can understand referring to a team as "we", but saying shit like that is definitely homer-esque.

tome grieve, as overheard on the air at the beginning of the 2nd: "i don't give a shit."

tom grieve, saying at the start of the next half inning: "....i'm very sorry."

josh lewin: "can you at least clarify that you weren't speaking to me."

how the hell did I miss that.

I heard the apology, but I can't believe I missed that.

fssw has a bad habit of coming from commercial with the game already underway. think they caught ole tommy off guard. i was in the other room and it went from commercial and next thing i heard was "i don't give a shit."

lewin tried to cover for him...."well, here we go, top of the 2nd..."
