These tecate commericals are SO lame
Eugeniooooooo!!!!
You mean the entire Latino population of the United States DOESN’T spend its time debating whether beer and cerveza are the same thing in exaggerated accents? GASP!
I know, I was shocked to find out.
Also, I was shocked to find out that the entire Latino population of the United States doesn’t have a rediculous Speedy Gonzales accent.

Since we're all in good moods
One of the Rockies announcers yesterday said he was talking to Rags the other day & our pitching coach said he didn’t pay attention to pitch counts. (sorry if that was covered)

So, recently, I ordered a book online; according to the tracking, it got to Richmond on May 1st, and has yet to make it from there to North Oakland. Have I found something as incompetent as the Giants? It’s a tough call.

well who would buy tickets to that?
you’d think they’d at least come up with a better name to grab the audience.
Don't think, it could only hurt the ballclub.
Or as Harry Caray would've called him...
“Traveras”.
That's all I can stands, I can't stands no more!
While living in New York, I remember watching a game where the two Mets announcers called Vinny Castilla “Castillo” and “Cast-uh-lee-uh.”
End of lesters no-hitter
Sox announcer screams “cah las po strikes out!!!!”. kind of ruined the moment.
The Cast-uh-lee-uh rendering takes some doing to pull off.
Favorite Harry Caray name botching: “William Van Dingenham.”
That's all I can stands, I can't stands no more!
he is striking out nearly 20 per nine. He can keep that up right? Right?
