But at least Buck and McCarver can keep track of which team is at bat! Alas, TBS is still doing the NLCS, which means that I may have to watch it with the TV on mute.

Fortunately, with the Indians having defeated the Yankees, we will not be subjected to any Yankees-Red Sox Star Wars montages. What else lies in store for us? Apparently Fox still has the ALCS.

That sort of goes against the point having a full beard, which is that you really only have to groom it once a week or so by running your beard-trimmer over it for thirty seconds. But now Pedroia will still have to shave his upper lip every morning. What a waste! Also, I am sort of loving the FrankTV ads. That Bush impression ("One......two?") followed by the Pacino "three four five strikes!") gets me every time. Also, Pedroia has no moustache with his beard.

Not employing Tim McCarver and 2. Coming up w/ that whole actober.com thing. I think that's a hilarious idea. Second, I want to point out that Pedroia's beard is one of the worst I've ever seen. He shaved his neck, but he went too high and now he's got plumber's jaw or jaw-butt or whatever you want to call it. It's terrible. If anybody can find me a pic of Pedroia with his beard, I am anxious to do an Unfortunate Facial Hair post. First of all, while FrankTV is annoying, I want to give TBS credit for:

Dane Cook, and his little buddy FrankTV, need to get the hell out of my postseason. It's a terrible sign when you're wishing Fox still had rights to sports games. Completely agree on #3.
