MDCCC=1800

OK, the 1800 Series, if represented by years, means that sometime during the 19th Century, Baseball was invented to drive people crazy. We've reached a sequence that's not far from the MM Post, or #2000:

Youk's Temper-Filled Bat Tosses-I once witnessed Paul O'Neill tossing a batting helmet that popped in the air after hitting the 1st Base Bag;

Somebody can get hurt in a temper tantrum-keep it to a minimum, guys-thanks;

In regards to FOX Sports Lead Baseball Analyst, James Timothy Mc Carver, often the brunt of furious criticism and Mockery, he's actually a far better Play By Play man than Joe Buck, who brings out the worst in Jimmy Timmy;

I actually found Jack Buck to be way better than Joe, anyway, but Kenny Albert, in style and sound, sounds more like Marv Albert, every day and Kenny Albert should replace Joe Buck, who sounds so insipid, and thinks he's so-funny;

Why do YES Network Commentators on Yankees Games, sound so rehearsed, or like George Steinbrenner, or Hank The Lead Son, have shotguns aimed at commentators heads? No wonder YES is called "NO" or "Al Yanquezeera";

On NESN, there are the comedic moments in the booth, with Don Orsillo And Jerry Remy, reminding me of moments on "The Carol Burnett Show", especially involving The Late and Awfully-Funny Harvey Korman and Tim Conway, with Orsillo in the Korman Role, and RemDawg as "Conway". Add Comedian-Actor, Lenny Clarke for an occasional stop in the booth and it can be riotously-funny;

Those Guys on SNY Mets Telecasts are good and balanced, though in the case of Several Time All Star 1st Baseman Keith Hernandez, we do know that you were on "Seinfeld" as a One Night Stand-er with Elaine Benes;

Why The Mockery of George Steinbrenner on "Seinfeld"? Well, Jerry has Mets Season Tickets and Larry David was a Brooklyn Dodgers Fan from, where else, Brooklyn;

Favorite Choice of mine, to having Old NY Mets GM, Steve Phillips, replaced with? Quite Easy, "Seinfeld" Character, George Costanza, who went crazy, working for "Steinbrenner", played by Larry David;

Funny, but Ron Darling, in those bank commercials, looks somewhat like RemDawg;

You don't get moments like this in a Major League Baseball Broadcast Booth anymore. Last Season, in working with Kenny Albert, Tim Mc Carver did an inning of play by play, while spinning stories with Hall of Famer, Ralph Kiner, as the Mets played The Dodgers. It was "WWOR On FOX" and it was like the '80s and '90s, all over again;

What is it with Red Sox Ownership that "Sweet Caroline", is played in the 8th Inning? it was written by Neil Diamond, a YANKEES Fan from Brooklyn, NY. It's a nice sing a long, but Red Sox Fans tend to go with Edgy, Celtic Punk Rock of "The Dropkick Murphys", to which I concur;

I've started taking Acidophillus, which is Yogurt Bacteria, the Good Bacteria for the body. I'm starting to feel like my Old Self Again;

I like to experiment with Natural Therapies and find that they work better than Conventional Medicine. Though, by education, I'm a Social Scientist, and politically a Classical Liberal, mistakenly called Conservative, I find that what ails one, can be found by Alternative Means;

Funny, but in the '06 Mets-Red Sox Series, Orsillo and Darling worked a couple of Innings together on NESN. Both worked The League Division Series on TBS in '07. On SNY, Remy worked with Gary Cohen, and Keith Hernandez. RemDawg even brought Wally The Green Monster, in his deck chair, over to the SNY Booth. Gary Cohen, in '87, worked the Radio Booth of the Pawtucket Red Sox for 2 Years. RemDawg was funnier than Keith Hernandez;

Pope Benedict XVI was recently in this Country. He celebrated Mass in Yankee Stadium. The Boorish Hank Steinbrenner, known to put his foot in his mouth, gave the Papal Team a warning about driving on the grass in Yankee Stadium. Like The Pope was going to do Wheelies On The Grass, Hank? A-Rod does more damage playing 3rd Base;

On my 2 Trips to Fenway Park this season-both were victories and what a party place. I never get that feeling in Shea Stadium. Amazing, how a Rent A Reliever, like Eric Gagne', even when elsewhere, could generate so much deep-seated fury from a fan base;

Ciao! Later!
