MikeMatt 89 Posted October 11, 2024 As lifelong Mets fan and how many years listening to Darling in the booth - but no bias - Costas has zero emotion. He is monotone and zero excitement - Boring Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

edjr 6,588 Posted October 11, 2024 I disagree. I like hearing him. Who cares what side he votes for? pathetic way to live life. Anyway. A. J. Pierzynski is best for color Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hardcore troubadour 15,432 Posted October 11, 2024 One of my favorite announcing teams of all time was Costas and Tony Kubek on NBC. Too bad he’s such a bich. Calls a good game though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

To me it seemed like he knew a lot more about the Yankees and not so much about the royals. Which makes sense because they get more exposure, but when you are calling the game you should be well versed about both teams. It was almost like he is a fanboy for the yanks. Some guys are just better at hiding their bias than other announcers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He’s known as being an NL man, particularly the Cardinals. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HellToupee 1,776 Posted October 12, 2024 I think Costas lost his fastball as bad as Al Michaels. He’s a shell of himself. It happens, he’s a deranged lefty lunatic but I don’t care what his politics is , he’s lost it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I did not watch. I heard clips of the calls on sports radio (which is better than violate alter boys radio - just saying). And yes I’ll keep watching baseball.

avoiding injuries 1,580 Posted October 12, 2024 No energy or excitement during the game, and he speaks monotone even on the big plays. Yeah, he sucks. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
