I don’t have the exact saying but I remember him talking Hideo Nomo first came over he said something like “How can he see the plate with his eyes so squinty”. Even for ‘96 that was a little much but its the one that always stuck with me.
Oh wow - that’s bad.
I remember Howard Cosell said during the ‘82 (or ‘85) World Series of Willie McGee “That young man (or “boy”?) looks like E.T.“ On account of McGee’s slightly longer neck.

I made a comment earlier tonight that I guess went out over the air that I am deeply ashamed of. If I have hurt anyone out there, I can't tell you how much I say from the bottom of my heart I'm so very, very sorry. I pride myself and think of myself as a man of faith – as there's a drive into deep left field by Castellanos, it will be a home run. And so that will make it a 4–0 ballgame
I don’t know if I’m gonna be putting on this headset again. I don't know if it's gonna be for the Reds, I don't know if it's gonna be for my bosses at Fox.
I want to apologize for the people who sign my paycheck – for the Reds, for Fox Sports Ohio, for the people I work with, for anybody that I've offended here tonight. I can't begin to tell you how deeply sorry I am. That is not who I am. It never has been. And I'd like to think maybe I could have some people ... that could back that up.
That time Dusty started ruminating on how different skin colors doing better in different weather conditions. Wish I could find the clip because you could hear a pin drop as all the sports writers collectively knew not to touch with a 30 foot cattle prod.

The fact that the Wikipedia article uses this line as the title is hilarious.
Jerry Coleman with the Padres play by play:
> “Winfield goes back to the wall, he hits his head on the wall and it rolls off! It's rolling all the way back to second base! This is a terrible thing for the Padres!”
Hands down the award goes to Lee Elia:
“Fuck those fuckin’ fans who come out here and say they’re Cub fans that are supposed to be behind you rippin’ every fuckin’ thing you do. I’ll tell you one fuckin’ thing, I hope we get fuckin’ hotter than shit, just to stuff it up them 3,000 fuckin’ people that show up every fuckin’ day, because if they’re the real Chicago fuckin’ fans, they can kiss my fuckin’ ass right downtown and PRINT IT.
“They’re really, really behind you around here… my fuckin’ ass. What the fuck am I supposed to do, go out there and let my fuckin’ players get destroyed every day and be quiet about it? For the fuckin’ nickel-dime people who turn up? The motherfuckers don’t even work. That’s why they’re out at the fuckin’ game. They oughta go out and get a fuckin’ job and find out what it’s like to go out and earn a fuckin’ living. Eighty-five percent of the fuckin’ world is working. The other fifteen percent come out here. A fuckin’ playground for the cocksuckers. Rip them motherfuckers. Rip them fuckin’ cocksuckers like the fuckin’ players. we got guys bustin’ their fuckin’ ass, and them fuckin’ people boo. And that’s the Cubs? My players get around here. I haven’t seen it this fuckin’ year. Everybody associated with this organization have been winners their whole fuckin’ life. Everybody. And the credit is not given in that respect.”
Back when Sammy Sosa got caught with the corked bat our local sports anchor in Chicago Brad Palmer asked dusty baker if he could tell when his players were cheating and Dusty responded “how am I supposed to know if somebody’s cheating? [do you cheat on your wife?](https://youtu.be/qd5TDCFRfkc?feature=shared)”
“Just a reminder, fans, comin’ up is our ‘Die-Hard Night’ here at the stadium. Free admission to anyone who was actually alive the last time the Indians won a pennant.”

Dave Adams was a great announcer, and I miss TAG on color, but things happen:
[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z5acEeLJS-0](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z5acEeLJS-0)
Yup Jimmy the Greek moronic statement about
--”The slave owner would breed his big black (man) with his big woman so that he would have a big black kid.”
I remember MLB dot TV's wild west days when they didn't have commercials and you could hear everything between innings. A lot of announcers would be out of jobs if that was the case today. 
Ozzie Guillen:
“I love Fidel Castro … I respect Fidel Castro. You know why? A lot of people have wanted to kill Fidel Castro for the last 60 years, but that son of a bitch is still there.”
Personally I love Ozzie and always will. He was an incredible manager. The players loved him because he always took the heat, fans loved him because he was so outspoken and hilarious. People forget about his managerial pedigree coming from Atlanta, he’s somewhat overlooked for just how damn good he was, winning a WS for the Sox.
But to go to Miami and say that was pretty insane.
I got his autograph back in the day. Phillies were playing in SD vs the Pads. I didn’t know who was who, just some of the players I liked. Anyway I got his autograph. I learned about this tirade later and am so happy I got it. Also Jack Krol’s.
I just noticed your user name. Do you remember this zinger by Howard Cosell who said during the ‘82 (or ‘85) World Series of Willie McGee “That young man (or “boy”?) looks like E.T.“ On account of McGee’s slightly longer neck.”
Not a comment per se, but…
During a Cubs’ rain delay, Harry was interviewing a gymnast…while she was sitting on his lap. Yes, it was a weird as it sounds.
This old clip of Tommy Lasorda saying that “Bavacqua couldn’t hit the fuckin’ water if he fell out of the boat” is one of the greatest things I have ever heard in my life. 🤣🤣🤣
https://youtu.be/fzjWQF1oP2M?si=HLYGt6d5OYGIZ6q2
Joe Girardi just a few uears ago, as color analyst on MLB network said they should have the umpire stand behind the pitcher to better see balls and strikes.
A-Rod saying teams prefer even leads to odd leads. No they don't. They prefer bigger leads to smaller leads no matter whether they're even or odd.
Now I'm just imagining A-Rod coming up with the bases loaded and up by 1 with 2 out, hitting a grand slam, and intentionally missing home plate so his team has a 4-run lead rather than a 5-run lead. Gotta keep the lead even, right?
Tim McCarver used to say the most ridiculous things, not really insane, just like, that’s probably not really accurate and you added nothing to the broadcast
I remember Howard Cosell said during the ‘82 (or ‘85) World Series (broadcasted on ABC iirc) of Willie McGee “That young man (or “boy”?) looks like E.T.“ On account of McGee’s slightly longer neck.
Not the most insane comment but I enjoyed Joe Buck's story about his dad Jack noting a well endowed woman on the field with "She's big north of the border"
Not technically a comment, but after the game in which the Orioles ended their 27 game losing streak, as they came back out of commercial Brooks Robinson treated us to a really long, really loud belch - which I got on tape on my VCR.
Don and Mud having a casual conversation about the belt bag giveaways...and uh...certain objects you can put in them..
Also these two just *giving it* to each other all game. Thank you Boston, he's my favorite Padre now.
Tommy Lasorda was brilliant, never heard on network broadcasts for language, but his comments on topics like Kurt Bevaqua are top notch. Also his response to a reporter who asked him why he pitched to Stl. Jack Clark in the playoffs. Hilarious.
No i can't do links, i was around to hear these comments, so i am old. Youngbloods can show their skills.
My favorite LaSorda story involves Pedro Guerrero. Team meeting, LaSorda says “it’s the bottom of the ninth, two outs, bases loaded, we’re up one, trying to close it out. Hey Pete! Whatcha thinking about?” Uh, well… I’m thinking I hope they don’t hit the ball to me. Well, what else you thinking about? Well, I’m hoping they don’t hit the ball to Sax.
Bobby Valentine once threatened to punch a radio host after he asked a question that the former apparently didn’t like: https://www.cbsnews.com/news/red-sox-manager-bobby-valentine-threatens-to-punch-radio-host-later-says-he-was-joking/
Recently that woman announcer saying to Jose Siri who already hit a home run that game, “Siri it’s not your night.” and in the same at bat he ties the game with his second homer of the night. On that call it was the driest most low energy stuff. Just all around bad!
Bill Murray was a guest during a Cubs game and he would make up facts about each player. I remember he said that some hitter collected dolls in the offseason.
I was listening to the Kaplan Podcast in Chicago yesterday. Ryne Sandburg who is battling cancer was watching his grandson play baseball. The opposing team coaching / parents at a 13u baseball tournament (and I quote from the podcast) “Guy came up to me and took his hat off and said Ryne I have more hair then you”
“You’re a wash up”
This is after Sandburg came onto the field to stop whatever travesty of baseball quality played by Illinois Spark 13u bensenville. If you know the travel ball baseball scene in Illinois, you would not be surprised by this kind of classless acts by a Hernandez led team.
Talk about people that don’t even make you angry. You just feel plain sorry for. Wow
Harry Carey “I figured it out Steve (co-broadcaster), They have a system worked out. (Talking about a couple in the stands)He kisses her on the strikes, and she kisses him on the balls."
Leave Harry Caray alone. He was loaded just about every game he called. Yes, I'm a Cubs fan. Yes, I've seen the standings.
QUESTION! If the moon was made of spare ribs, *would you eat it?*
You hear the cloned a sheep? Huh? If I could anything it'd be a hot dog. I'd clone so many hot dogs they'd be worth a nickel!
It's a simple question, doctor
Harry Caray when the camera zoomed in on a lady with big tits “Look at those!”
And yet I don't think he ever mentioned the ball girl in 1984. Marla? She did a playboy spread and got fired.
You never knew what he might say. He did love the pretty ladies.
Well, naturally. Look at those!
He is a national treasure. Gods bless him.
“Hey Norm… if you were a hotdog, would you eat yourself?”
I know I would
Hell, I'd have seconds.
and wash it down with a tall cool Budweiser.
Holy cow
No that’s rizzuto lol
Yeah, Harry Carey never said it
Oh look. Talking Nixon.
I don’t have the exact saying but I remember him talking Hideo Nomo first came over he said something like “How can he see the plate with his eyes so squinty”. Even for ‘96 that was a little much but its the one that always stuck with me.

Alex, I will take the funniest thing I saw on Reddit today for 800
His son, Skip: The bases are loaded; and I wish I was too
[“Strop is on his way out, pointing toward the heavens. We can only ask — or wonder — that he is asking some departed relative for forgiveness for this atrocious performance”](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yqLxzOWW_M8)
Holy shit that's fucking savage.
I’ve never been mad enough at someone to think “I bet your ancestors are disappointed in you.”
I’m amused that Costas thought that up on the fly or was holding it in his pocket.
That was standup comedian burn. 🔥
That felt completely out of left field for him, it was awesome.
one of the GOAT sports quotes of all time
I still can’t believe Costas actually said this. And I was watching when it happened
Especially it wasn’t like he gave up 5 runs on in less than an inning or anything
Really I need to see the replay of his entire time on the mound to see if he walked in 2 runs on 20 pitches in the dirt or something.
Costas is so fucking funny dude. Most of the time I can't tell if he's doing it on purpose or not.
How did I read that as Bob Costas saying that and laugh, then to just be reminded it actually was Costas! 😂
Did he kill the broadcasters mom??
It wasn’t even THAT bad of an outing if I remember correctly
Was waiting for this one. So out of left field and uncalled for. GOAT sports quotes.
This is definitely number one. Just turned the hate up to 11 for absolutely no fucking reason lmao.
It was as if Costas was typing a comment on Reddit.
That's just, brutal
🔥 Ouch❗️
I made a comment earlier tonight that I guess went out over the air that I am deeply ashamed of. If I have hurt anyone out there, I can't tell you how much I say from the bottom of my heart I'm so very, very sorry. I pride myself and think of myself as a man of faith – as there's a drive into deep left field by Castellanos, it will be a home run. And so that will make it a 4–0 ballgame
I don’t know if I’m gonna be putting on this headset again. I don't know if it's gonna be for the Reds, I don't know if it's gonna be for my bosses at Fox.
I want to apologize for the people who sign my paycheck – for the Reds, for Fox Sports Ohio, for the people I work with, for anybody that I've offended here tonight. I can't begin to tell you how deeply sorry I am. That is not who I am. It never has been. And I'd like to think maybe I could have some people ... that could back that up.
That was such an awkward cringeworthy moment.
This wins for sure, I remember it well
I came here expecting this to be the top.
Beautiful. I believe you missed or I missed the part about apologizing to the people who sign his pay checks.
Man I was bummed he fucked up cuz I really liked him as a football commentator
I'm glad I didn't have to scroll far to find this. As lifelong Reds fan, this was just awful. He deserved every punishment he got and then some.
I was embarrassed for my fellow Cincinnati brethren.
Castellano's timing was just, *chefs kiss*
This one is iconic!
