B. Amish Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 I dont know who it was either but that one announcer was a a$$. Like when he said the wind from left was starting to knock balls down, then whoever was up blasted 3 or 4 to left field right then. But that was truly amazing to watch. I'm pretty sure it was Joe Morgan that was talking about the wind. He is one announcer that I can not stand. He always seems to have an expert opinion on things that don't need an opinion.

Cooter Posted July 15, 2008 Author Share Posted July 15, 2008 Any Twins fan should be proud of Justin's overall performance, like said truly a class act. I was riled up as well when they were downplaying him even before he got up to bat. Maybe the format should be changed to overall homers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Uran Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 Yeah morgan is the Madden of baseball with all of his dumb comments. Peter Gammins (sp?) had good things to say about Morneau, and he knows his stuff. it was still Hamilton's show after that first round, with good reason. But in the end a Twin one it and showed a lot of class. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
huntnfishsd Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 Great HR derby for sure. I was so glad that Morneau won and that he made Rick Reilly eat his words for saying that he didn't even belong in the contest! Like said, Justin is a class act all the way (like all of the Twins) even after being treated like dirt by the media. It sure is nice to see nice guys finish first once in awhile...

Gary Crichton Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 Did you see the look in Justins face when the presenter said Jason. Justin in is mind said. At least you could have gotten my name right one-who-thinks-I-am-silly. Oh well that just shows the world the class of the Twins. ESPN did a terrible job on this.Was there anyone representing the Yankees. Being the last one in this stadium one would think..........G.C.

smartguy Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 ESPN is so bad, it's not even funny. Yep! They are the reason why I have shyed away from sports. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tisosy11 Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 After Hamilton's HUGE first round, you had to have a feeling he'd run out of gas. I like the fact Morneau was able to win it because of that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
