Good for baseball, but sucks from a college basketball and college football standpoint for Big Ten fans. Though I assume he’ll at least do some games on The Cock.

When something is happening, young people like to say it’s “lit.”

NBC is all in on sports. Surprised how much NBA has been one.*

In the 60s and 70s, they had a lock on baseball and college basketball.

In fact, I don't think I watched either one on any other network until the 80s.

CBS did to NBC what Fox did to CBS with the NFC. It's a good thing David Sarnoff didn't live to see it.

Man, that sucks*

I had forgotten that he was no longer the White Sox guy.

We'll always have "Thanks Cubs" and Eloy flopping around the field like a fish.

You cannot lose games in the NFL and still win.

Forgotten? He left over two years ago*

Sorrrrry, that's how irrelevant the White Sox have been.

Adam Amin would do well for himself to get away from a similarly irrelevant operation.

The guy just turned 90 ( !!! ) a few days ago.

Connie Mack was somewhere north of say, 91 when he sold. Carl Pohlad/Twins was 93 when he died, still listed as the owner.

Funny because he left NBC as lead baseball announcer to go to Fox

I kind of liked when they had an analyst from each side. I hope they do that again instead of 1 dedicated color guy.

David Ross is back on ESPN.
