I know that Rance is up to date on other players, Jesse is on point and apprised of league storylines, tabler knows who the good players in the game are, it's just that the PBP guys can be a little homerish, but it wasn't to Eck's level of bias. He's a colour guy not a paint it Red guy. Jamie is biased but at least he's meek sounding and seemingly concedes to the stronger performer. I here him talk about other teams with some level of intelligence and venerability. I am not saying he's my guy, but he's the only guy doing it. Wilner on the other hand, is a total fan but that's why he's on the radio. Perhaps it's because we don't get the fan590 feed all the time that I don't get annoyed with him and I'm too distracted to find and listen to a baseball game online.
Eck helps me to appreciate guys like Joe Morgan. Joe, I cherish your insights.
