Teddy Salad Liveblogs the HR Derby

Postby Teddy Salad on Mon Jul 14, 2008 7:24 pm

1: two of the biggest morons with regard to baseball are onscreen right now: Chris Berman and Joe Morgan. Christ I hate ESPN.

2: they interview Derek Jeter about the derby?! Why? He's not in it. He doesn't hit for power. Christ I hate ESPN.

Berman has already used the tremendously irritating "backbackbackback" for a non home run at least once.

Uggla takes one pitch and Berman lauds his "patience" and "savy." Huh?

If you know Joe Morgan at all you know he seems to know about five MLB players and praises them constantly. One of them is Chase Utley. Guess who Joe picked to win?

Berman discussing about how the Yankee fans used to be able to simply ignore the Rays, but now they have to BOO them. These guys are morons. I could care less about Yankee fans while watching Evan Longoria. Stick to the derby, the all stars, something related, etc etc.

Lance Berkman is crushing it. Nice catch, kid (in CF).

Morneau is known as "the crazy eigHt?" at least According to Berman. Hmmmm.

Oh Jesus, Steve Levy is complaining that Morneau is in the derby because he's just another white invitee. He then names five Hispanic dudes...none of which are even AT THE ALL STAR GAME! WTF on that one, for sure.

Ooh interviewing Hamilton.

Morneau was impressive.

Berman: "plus he has a name for the derby, doesn't he? Braun." Um what?

Berman and Joe Morgan are already making this intolerable and I just flipped to it 10 minutes ago. Sweet jesus stop with the backbackbacks. This is awful.

Hamilton up; jeez, first one is a bomb.

Berman droning about drugs.

Wow drilled no 2. 502 ft. Jesus.

Droning about drugs. Joe doesn't care about drugs, cares about him missing games only.

Jeez no 5 is a missile. 504 ft.

Volquez drops off a briefcase, Hamilton hits 8. What's in the case?

Berman wants Hamilton on the Rays and how we should "feel sorry for the Rays" because they lost him. Uh ok. The league didn't take him away; the Rays cut him.

Jeez he is creaming them. 3rd deck!

Handley Ramirezs kid brings him Gatorade.

12 hrs. Man. More drug talk.
