just watched -11/18/09-a movie playing on comcast ondemand titled “Cooperstown. It stars Alan Arkin as an old baseball scout who is miffed that he is not in the Hall of Fame. The movie is one of the best baseball movies I have ever seen. It took me totally by surprise.
Also one of the greatest movie lines i ever heard about sportswriters but you’ll have to watch the film itself to hear it.

This could not be any more true. 100% everything spot on.

Steve Buckley is like 99.9% of baseball writers. They’re pompous, condescending, and they value their opinion as the RIGHT opinion no matter what.

If anyone was listening to the big show today 6/23/09, Buckley was being just that. Trying to be the end all be all master of minor league baseball.

Total pompous jackass.

CISW, I applaud you.

Always enjoyed when this one guy would call and ask the Big O or another guest a question that he knew Buck would have an answer for and then when Buck would interrupt he’d shout, “Buck . . . shut up!” Worked every time.

Buckley makes the mistake of trying to talk sports on a sports radio show – and Ordway always reins him in. Judging from the posts here, the Ordway crowd is out in full force. Notice the “he thinks he’s so smart” comments? George Wallace ran for the presidency on the same complaint – the “pointy-headed liberals.” The one thing you can’t be forgiven for is making the audience feel that they’re as stupid as they are.

Lets concentrate on the fact that Buckley has an attitude he is THE voice of reasoning in whatever he says. That he is never wrong. That his opionions are the only ones that should count!

With so many concrete reasons to disapprove Mr. Buckley, do people really have to stoop to innuendo about his sexual preference? What’s the difference?

He should be judged on his professional, not his personal life.

This plays into the perception that the readers of this board are a bunch of shut-ins.

Mild disapprove for being almost satanically dull.

I,I,I strongly disprove. Now, if your asking me, and I think you are, I will say that I have thought this over, and being as it may, I do not like this arogant hair died cigar on the back porch by himself smoker. Now, I wish I had a really funny joke to tell hear, like from my really funny friend from cambridge, who’s name escapes me. Point being, I can’t stand his holyer than thow attitude. How dare you disagree with him. (Next time he is on, count how many times he says (I), or (ME).
