Joe Buck’s Ridiculous Opinion, Chris Russo’s Factual Error

There are so many ridiculous comments being made about the World Series across the Sports media. I have singled out two of the bigger stars remarks for closer examination.

Fox  TV executives must like Joe Buck, but to me he’s the modern day version of the “Emperor’s New Clothing.” Someone get those blind executives some glasses (and also some hearing aids).

Buck, after just 2 innings of game 2 of the World Series with the score already 2-1,  gave the opinion that it was a well pitched game. What?

Chris Russo hosts the MLB Network TV show “High Heat.” On Tuesday’s show,  he said that the Royals have been in Kansas City since 1954 or 1955. What?  He obviously confused the 1969 expansion team Royals with the Kansas City A’s.

They are two separate franchises. The Royals have been in KC since their inception in 1969, while the A’s franchise started in Philadelphia as the A’s before moving to KC in 1955, and left KC moving to Oakland in 1968.
