Ok, so I will freely admit that I havent exactly been a captivated fan over the last few weeks when these two dipshits have been "practicing," however today in the last two innings I heard enough to know this is just painful radio.

Farmer: Chris, take a look at this pitchers leg kick and after this pitch tell the audience at home what a fast base runner loves about this guy.

(Pitch)

Singleton: Well he has a big leg kick which makes it easy for a runner with some speed to swipe a bag easily. He has a hitch at the top of his delivery.

Farmer: So with this kind of leg kick, it becomes easier for runners to steal bases.

Greg: Ok, what the f uck is going on here. Please for the love of god tell me that Farmer didnt just talk to Singleton like he was 7 and attending his first ball game with his father. I am well aware that Singleton is a horrible announcer, but come on, could you talk down to the guy any more blatently? Any retard listening at home could obviously piece together what Farmer was talking about, why even bother asking the question?

I do think though Singleton didnt like it because he made some sort of comment an inning later, that he had had enough of Farmers nicknames for players "Babe" Shelton (which i find funny) and Sy Spurling (hair club for men). Farmer just ignored him and moved on.

If this is the shit that we are going to have to put up with, I will go locate, dig up, and revive Helen Keller. I am willing to bet she can describe the game better to me than these two ass clowns.

I didn't hear it but what a dip shit move on Farmer's part. Make the point your self Farmer if you think of something. Don't patronize the guy. If I was Singleton I would have slugged him or come back with this.

Singleton- Eddie tell the audience what it is like to go through life as an arrogant, name dropping dip shit.

Farmer- Ed Farmer does not do that. Ask George Bush and he'll tell you.

Today's broadcast featured Ed Farmer at his most condescending.

He was leading Singleton around by the nose all game, asking the most ridiculous questions in the tone a parent asks a child when the parent already knows the answer.

The sunglasses on the cap discussion made me scream out loud in the office. Farmer kept railing on players for wearing the sunglasses on their cap, and Singleton vigorously defended the practice saying that conditions change from minute to minute. Farmer completely disregarded anything Singleton had to say.

One of the 2 will walk out of the booth in disgust with the other before the All Star break.

Heard it, hilariously awkward. Of course, Singleton is horrible on the mic and needs a personality transfusion, but I will admit that for the most part it seems like he's done putting up with Farmio's holier-than-though bullshit fest...Singleton's horrible but I'm amused by the digs he's getting in at Farmio now that leave Steady Eddie speechless.

Farmio was asking Fiesty Jr.(Singleton) aboot the sunglasses on the cap thing on Monday also. "Is it something the young guys do?" That fucker Farmio asked him like he hasn't talked to a ballplayer since the invention of sunglasses.

How long was Farmio waiting for Rooney to leave the booth so he could be an ass-clown all afternoon. It's my fault for still listening.

What is the over/under until Fiesty Jr. gives Farmio the finger in the booth?
I called the Bookie Priest, but got his voicemail.

If the Sox weren't on 'SCR how bad of a beating do you think B&B would give these two clowns on a daily basis. It'd be similar to a Hawk Round 2 I think.

They are completely unlistenable. I heard Singleton has a 5 year contract, can anyone confirm this? If that's the case I wouldn't be surprised if Farmer's beina jerk to try and get him to resign ASAP. It's not going to get any better with these two. Only worse and more uncomfortable.

Yes, it's true. I read that Singlio signed a 5 year deal, the exact same length of SCR's deal with the Sox.

I find that reprehensible. I don't give the finger.
