    Horrible, dude. The couple paragraphs in the middle of that column are especially brutal.

    It's not Hamiltons responsibility but I hope he can be a part of that kids life in some way. I am sure it would help both of them.

    Yeah, I kinda like it though. They had them rotating booths with the SF and NY telecast earlier.

    I like hearing Michaels doing baseball again.

    And there's no way that Wilson isn't on some kind of steroid.

    Yeah, I agree about michaels doing baseball. I like him and costas a lot. I think I remember reading something about michaels being a diva. Apparently he's next to impossible to work with.

    Whatever Wilson is on it makes him look and act like a d-bag

    There's no denying the douchebag part.

    Yeah, what I heard about Michaels working with Madden was that because he was so short he would stand on step-stools and the such to be the same height as Madden in close up shots. If you ever noticed they were the same height when Michaels was a short dude and Madden is a beast. So he's got that Napoleon complex I guess. Also, I've always come away thinking that US hockey call is what gave him a huge head. He always tell the story of it with so much smugness, like he invented the wheel or something. But, yeah, Costas and Michaels doing baseball reminds me being a kid and there was prime time games on the networks. I wish there was at least one national game a week on NBC or something like that.

    RE: the hockey game...haha. I think he did the '86 WS too right?

    If I was him I'd think I was the shit too. He's done some pretty big games.

    Ah, theres Hendu taking donnie moore deep. Moore killed himself after that game. That's another classic.

    Yeah, that's true. It's not like he's not awesome. Yeah, he did that earthquake series too, so he gets a ton of exposure for that too.

    I like Naked Gun when they have an ass load of commentators in the booth for the game - it's like Al Michaels, Vin Scully, Jim Palmer, Dick Enberg, Dick Vitale, Tim McCarver. And I'm sure I'm wrong about some of these, but you get the point, it was funny.

    Hamilton fouled a ball into the stands that hit a fan in the face.

    That dude better keep his head on a swivel. At this rate he might get hit with an anvil falling out of the sky

    Jesus Christ. I'm starting to think that dude is cursed. Not to be funny, but this is the kinda shit that make a dude relapse.

    On a positive note, I'm playing Streets of Rage 2 like a 12 year old.

    They shouldn't ban it. Its one of the only ways the players can truly connect with the fans.
