I didn't realize you were a Bush fan.
I love ESPN! I will admit, I'm not a huge baseball fan, but this was an amazing series and I was happy to see the Cubbies win!
Sorry! I love football. Other sports, I just watch when there's a big game/championship thing going on.
That's OK. Nobody's perfect!Sorry! I love football. Other sports, I just watch when there's a big game/championship thing going on.

ESPN is so bias it's crazy,but until they get any competition their the cats meow.
....where do you see bias?....the hosts are all opinionated as hell, but I've not heard anything I would call out and out bias....ESPN is so bias it's crazy,but until they get any competition their the cats meow.

...the human element will always, excuse the expression, come into play.....there are announcers and commentators that are blatantly "homers" then there are those that are the regular announcers for all manner of sporting events....they cover their particular sport and the "local" team on a regular basis and yes, they do interject their opinions-and the vast majority are even-handed both pro & con....as a case in point, Marty Brennaman of the Cincinnati Reds...he will give compliments when they are due, to BOTH teams-but he isn't shy about giving anyone in the organization hell if he thinks they deserve it.....Would they be the announcers that call the post season games?
2016 the announcers weren't to bad, but the previous year it was extremely obvious who they were rooting for. And when you hear disappointment when your team gets a run in, it really takes away from the enjoyment.
Exactly. Always rooting for the big market clubs. Even in the powerhouse days of the Indians in the 90's. All u would here is stories on the yanks and red Sox. Guys like Bruce drennen nail it. Like most local media who really know the deal.Would they be the announcers that call the post season games?
