Rest in peace Timmy for that time you called out that punk *** Primetime
He's actually looked sickly for the last few years.I was scared at first , I thought Tim McGraw died
And Bob Gibson with the Cards.Made up a legendary battery with Lefty Carlton for the Phils.
I grew up a Mets fan. McCarver was the bestBe careful talking bad about this boards hero like that
McCarver was definitely a legendary voice calling games though
I am all those things as well. Canes fan, Sanders hater and Pirates fan. 1992 was devastating as that was really the last chance the Pirates will have in my lifetime of being relevant. For as great as Bonds was, to not have the arm to throw out Sid Bream (former Pirate) is embarrassing.That whole Grime/McCarver episode seriously triggers some sort of PTSD for me.
Imagine being a young kid that was a giant Canes fan and hated Sanders but also being a giant Pittsburgh Pirates fan in 1992 too. The way THAT NLCS ended and then to have THAT clown celebrating THAT way..... for the effing Braves and cot**** Ted Turner and Hanoi Jane Fonda...... as you're about to cry yourself to sleep.... because Barry Bonds refused to listen to Andy Van Slyke and move in on Francisco Cabrera.....excuse me....time to go back to therapy.
RIP McCarver.

not to mention that Van Slyke told Bonds to move in and Bonds refused.I am all those things as well.

Those afternoon Yankee v Red Sox games were longer than the Godfather trilogyNothing could put me to sleep on a Saturday afternoon quite like Tim or Joe Buck announcing a Cardinals game on Fox.
absolutely nailed it.Those afternoon Yankee v Red Sox games were longer than the Godfather trilogy
First World Series I remember was 68 and game 1. McCarver catching for Gibson. Under appreciated catcher and a pretty good hitter for a catcher especially in his era.And Bob Gibson with the Cards.
