Flag Man Posted July 25, 2004 Share Posted July 25, 2004 Len and Tommy have been annoying Homies for months. Now, it's getting ridiculous. They are Loria kiss-ups. They don't tell it like it is. Always making excuses for Marlins screw-ups. Disgusting to hear such knowledgeable, baseball-wise guys coming up with such crap. Don't believe me? Try listening to Boog and Dave (on radio). You get a much more honest picture. They get paid by Loria, too. But, they have some integrity. (And don't argue with me unless you have listened to both often.)

Ramp Posted July 25, 2004 Share Posted July 25, 2004 I would say that most tv analysts are huge homers though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishywishy Posted July 25, 2004 Share Posted July 25, 2004 Examples please. Actually I think Len and Tommy do a pretty good job of giving some reasoning to think about behind decisions made. They keep optimistic, but admit our faults. Who cares anyway The last thing we need here is more complaints about everything Marlins related.

Admin Posted July 25, 2004 Share Posted July 25, 2004 They get paid by Loria, too. 475353[/snapback] Aren't Len and Tommy FSN employees and not Marlins employees? I could be wrong but I think that's how it works. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hotcorner Posted July 25, 2004 Share Posted July 25, 2004 I don't agree. It's not like Boog and Van Horn sit there & rip the front office. Boog I like very much, & he's not afraid to tell it like it is, but I feel the same way about Tommy Hutton. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bazooka Posted July 25, 2004 Share Posted July 25, 2004 Boog was critical of Conine the other day, after Conine argued a called strike, i belive Boog's comments were something along the lines of if he's arguing with this umpire one day, and another umpire another day, and then a different umpire the next day, at some point he has to look in the mirror and say it's not the umpires.

Marlins2003 Posted July 25, 2004 Share Posted July 25, 2004 You mean Boog who has tried twice in the last three years to get out of South Florida but hasn't only because he isn't good enough to go anywhere else? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flag Man Posted July 25, 2004 Author Share Posted July 25, 2004 Even the Braves and Cubbies TV Homies admit when the team is screwing up. Len and Tommy p***y-foot and come up with the strangest explanations for Marlins screw-ups. "It's such a beautiful day and our Marlin really ran very hard after going in two different directions but I think there was the click of a beer can in the parking lot that might have distracted him."

RossInfoMan Posted July 25, 2004 Share Posted July 25, 2004 I actually find Len and Tommy to be critical, but fair, especially Tommy. Like, for an instance, hes always on the pitchers for not holding runners properly and their high leg kicks with runners on. If they are so "sickening," you can always mute the game and listen on the radio. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jonnylons Posted July 25, 2004 Share Posted July 25, 2004 This is an all-time low...ripping the TV analysts... And since we are on the subject, Hutton was very critical of the Marlins one night when I got to watch them on TV. I just cant remember the game, but he was very stirred up about the Marlins' lack of effort and baserunning. I think they are supposed to keep things optimistic - and they do a good job of keeping things realistic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
