As if ESPN’s televised baseball content wasn’t bad enough, USA Today is reporting that Steve Phillips will be joining the Jon Miller/Joe Morgan broadcast booth, making it a trio of boobs instead of just a twosome:
“One of the longest-running acts in TV sports is getting a new cast member. ESPN will formally announce Wednesday that Steve Phillips will join Jon Miller and Joe Morgan, who’ve called ESPN’s Sunday night baseball for 19 years.
The move, freeing up ESPN’s Peter Gammons for Sunday night studio work rather than reporting from ESPN’s Sunday games, comes as ESPN is beefing up its Major League Baseball coverage for an obvious reason.”
The story also notes that this “frees” Peter Gammons to return to the studio instead of being his inane self as a sideline reporter. Oh joy! Biased and idiotic utterances stuttered side-mouthed from inside a studio instead of from the bleachers. Yes, that’ll add much more value to ESPN’s broadcasts.
I’d pause to ask why ESPN picked Steve Phillips but I guess I already know the answer: if a network has a stable of dim-witted mules, what difference does it make which mule you pick to trot out in the field and which ones get to stay home? They’re all idiots anyway...
