We’re going to fist the hell outta this chat

By Mike Axisa

Let’s discuss Chip Caray’s gross overuse of the term “fisted” this afternoon, when we do this chat thing. Same bat time (2pm), same bat place.

Dennis Eckersley uses “paint” wayyyy more. We counted once in some random Red Sox game and he said it 63 times during the game. And that just so happened to be THAT game we decided to do that in…there could have been more where he shattered that.

Makes for a nice drinking game though…

UWS says:

Just make sure you have an ambulance standing by.

 

I think his neckties were “painted” by a drunken, blind idiot.

Skip Bayless is such a piece of shit.

In other news, the grass outside is green and the sky is blue. We’ll have more at 11. Back you, Chip.

 
Accent Shallow says:

I think Bayless is best summed up by this bit from Deadspin:

It’s kind of amazing to think that, at one point, Skip Bayless was one of the top up-and-coming sportswriters in the country. At the age of 25, Bayless was hired as lead columnist for the Dallas Morning News, an amazing opportunity. He embraced this job by constantly claiming Troy Aikman was gay. And they say bloggers are bad.

 
 
 
Manhattan Matt says:

Chip Caray is so bad, after 4 playoff games of him I am looking forward to Joe Buck.

 
AJ Burnett's Chin Music ensemble says:

If he covered a Mariners game he could have said: “Big Papi fists one into the hole off of Doug Fister”

 
Accent Shallow says:

I wonder if he doesn’t know what sort of balls to describe as “fisted”, or if he lost a bet that requires him to make oblique double entendres on television?

 
Riddering says:

I know his baseball coverage is bad but it was much worse when Chip attended a tea-bagging rally.

 
swo says:

The overuse of “fisted” is NOTHING compared to his waxing poetic on AJ Burnett “In, out, in, out, up, down, hard, soft…young baseball players could learn a lot from AJ tonight.”

I have nothing more to say.
