Pretty digestable stuff. I was uncomfortable with my near complete agreement:

-The Who should have been in bed before half time check
-Tim McCarver should be covering rythmic gymnastics check
-MLB network does it right and is not afraid to
remind us that Shea Stadium hosted The Beatles in
1965 drawing 55,000 with a gate of $300K (thanks to
ticket prices of $4.50, $5.00 & $5.75) check

A lotta vitriol today, Paul. In a way I kinda feel bad for The Who — they meant well, I think. And as far as McCarver, well, he’s a terrible baseball commentator. But he seems like a nice guy.

Great call on the Hold Steady. Would love to see them as the halftime show. I mean, I was just happy Roger Daltry didn’t break a hip.

And hope Tim McCarver gets a kidney stone. On the air.

There’s always the mute button to handle the playoffs…
