His ignorance of climate is only matched by his ignorance of baseball.

Good grief! McCarver has had his brain finally wander off. He has been getting stranger and stranger over time. His baseball comments rarely make sense anymore.

For someone who played the game it seems that he has lost the ability to do the “color commentary” on a broadcast. His comments do not reflect the reality in front of him or even basic knowledge of the game.

It is sadder and sadder as time goes on.

MCCARVER: There have been climactic changes over the last 50 years in the world,
and I think that's one of the reasons that balls are carrying much better now than I remember.

BUCK: So that's your inconvenient truth about these things?

Great response! LOL ...

Tim McCarver is your typical dumb jock who is thought to be ‘intelligent’ because he can speak in complete sentences. Newsflash Timmy. The leading greenhouse gas is water vapor - which would make the air more dense.

I’m with Rush on being disappointed w/McCarver because I grew up a Cardinals fan, listening to Harry Carey’s radio call on the games. The only thing I can say in defense of McCarver is that at least he has lots of company on being totally misled by those purporting that the “science of global warming” is a settled matter.

I like Buck, I get the impression he leans more conservative, I could be wrong.

Hey, no one ever said you had to be smart to be a good baseball player.

McCarver is a Yankee hater. Whenever he and Buck are calling a Yankee game, I turn down the sound and listen to John Sterling.

Yeah...it sucks because I am a huge Steve Carlton fan and he used to be his catcher. Doochbag

I guess it’s no accident that catcher’s equipment is referred to as the “tools of ignorance.”

I couldn’t believe it when Fox hired Tim McCarver. He did local Mets games, and was the dumbest piece of sh*t I’ve ever heard open their mouths in a sports box. And yes, I did occasionally have the misfortune of hearing D’ohbermann on ESPN back in the day, and Howard Cossell.

The stuff that would come out of his mouth, like calling Bud Harrellson the most legendary shortstop from New York (Uh, Phil Rizutto?), or Keith Hernandez the best all-round playing first baseman in history (Lou Gehrig?). Ignorant or slow-witted I could handle; McCarver is just willfully stupid.

(Now, if global warming were real, it probably would cause a negligible effect on run scoring, since more runs score in hot weather. A rise in 40 degrees will cause about .2 more runs per game, so a rise of 1 degree would cause .005 runs per game.)
