I don't know if it's because I grow so attached to the Mets announcers over the regular season (I still really miss Fran Healy), but I can't stand the Fox announcers, Joe Buck and Tim McCarver in particular. It is a sentiment shared by my family, and getting ready to watch the ALCS, my brother and I had the following convo:

LittleJimmyAllGrownUp: Joe Buck should be FIRED.

FearlessTemp: Joe Buck should be fired out of a CANNON.

LJAGU: Joe Buck should be fired out of a cannon AIMED AT TIM MCCARVER.

FT: You win.

I am rooting for Oakland in the ALCS, half because I loved the book Moneyball, half because Detroit has too many pitchers I don't want the Mets to meet.

I have done the radio/TV a couple of times - it's like getting an audio feed from the future, which is pretty funny but a little confusing at times. We may end up doing that tomorrow night, because after tonight, I don't think we can handle more Buck 'n McCarver. How do they get these jobs? They're so unfunny and self-important and full of incredibly obvious insights.

I don't know if I will survive October!
