Zero hour, Michael. It's the end of the line. I'm the firstborn. I'm sick of playing second fiddle. I'm always third in line for everything. I'm tired of finishing fourth. Being the fifth wheel. There are six things I'm mad about, and I'm taking over.

Tigers sweep Oakland.

Placido Polanco is named ALCS MVP.

Definately.  Dude blew ass as a commentator and that never warranted his firing but this does?  Apparently it's ok to suck at your job as long as you don't offend anyone.   

And I never heard about this happening but I think it's hilarious. 

QuoteEarlier in the playoffs, while working the Mets-Dodgers NLDS, Lyons unwittingly made fun of a nearly blind fan who was wearing special glasses to see the game.

"He's got a digital camera stuck to his face," Lyons said.

No idea other than Billy Beane is an idiot.

Apparently a lack of communication with his players and callousness toward injured players.
