Looks like Francisco Lindor is the early favorite for Fox's Derek Law Camera.

Lindor is a borderline superstar and not a random middle reliever, so there's something.

Yea, but remember we love to assume the media and/or announcers hate us. And then Adrian Gonzalez is vilified for saying "Us against the world", when thats the mentality of assuming the media sucks the other team's dick

I wish Yeti would take his gay pills again instead of his "Um, actually, both sides are bad" pills.

It makes me feel better about funning on Sadrian (You're welcome, Huey) for that comment when I'm not acting like the mass media hates my team because they sometimes show other teams on camera.

I've been annoyed with the talking points in these playoffs, and I've focused some of that on Buck, but it really probably isn't his fault. I'm sure the studio notes before every game highlight LESTER YIPS, CURSES, BARTMAN, ETC repeatedly. His play by play has been good, his call of the last out of the NLCS was perfect.

As for them liking players from other teams too much or whatever I think bitching about BROADCASTER BUYAS is the only thing dumber than UMPIRE BUYAS. His job is to hype up the series. Cubs fans thought he wanted to tongue bathe Clayton Kershaw, Dodgers fans were fuming at his love affair with Baez.
I will vow, for the sake of peace, not to complain about David Ross between now and his first start next year- 10/26/2015

My camera comment had nothing to do with any of that -- it was more about Fox's infatuation with running STORYLINES OF POSTSEASON PASHUN into the extremely zoomed-in ground. Law and Lindor are both sufficiently fired up to warrant 24/7 camera coverage. Anyway, back to whatever we're going on about.
You two wanna go stick your wangs in a hornet's nest, it's a free country.  But how come I always gotta get sloppy seconds, huh?

While the eclipse is certainly a cool event, I'm ready to stare into the sun just so I don't have to watch anymore of the phony / overblown / fake enthusiasm that is being broadcast.

I am laughing very hard that you posted a belt joke immediately in response to this, apparently thought better of it, waited almost an entire today, and then posted a new, slightly more ambiguous belt joke.
