OK A-holes.  It's fixed.  Enjoy the orange links, because I have no fucking idea how to change them.  I basically learned scripting in four days to fix this damned thing. - Andy

I know you all heard Chip just call that inning ending, game saving double play a base hit off the bat.

If only he'd scored so that call would have to be replayed over and over on SportsCenter...

Really, it's a shame that someone had to win that exhibition game.

CHIPPY:  Will this be the final 9th inning of regular season baseball in the Metrodome?  The answer to that is "yes."  Will it be the final 9th inning in the Metrodome?  We don't know.

Well done, Chip.

Even if the Twins lost, I'm pretty sure the Metrodome will continue to host college baseball games in January, February and March. And, don't be shocked if in a few years, a WBC winds up in Minneapolis. They're not tearing down the Metrodome with the Vikings still in it, as much as I wish they would do so (not tear down the Dome, but tear down the Dome with the Vikings in it).

Holy shit, I had all but cleansed from my brain the memories of how terrible Chip Caray is as an announcer.  The guy is so terrible he distracts me even when I mute the television, because I know he's saying something idiotic even if I can't hear it.

I hope that the Yankees/Twins series is completely uninteresting sweep, because I don't want to be tempted to watch and be subjected to Chippy's calls again.

Whoever was broadcasting the game on ESPN 1000 were the polar opposite of a Chip Caray broadcast.  I don't know who the two guys were, but they were amazing.  I would have rather stayed in the car and listened to them the whole time than actually watch the game on TV.
