This post will give some insight as to my geekiness, but I am writing it anyways.

I love baseball, specifically Major League Baseball. I can listen to any game, even if I don't root for the teams involved. Today I am listening to the Milwaukee Brewers vs Atlanta Braves game. The radio broadcaster for the Brewers (the feed I'm streaming) is Bob Uecker.

If you know anything about Mr Uecker, you know that he played the dad in the "Mr Belvedere" TV series, as well as playing a broadcaster in the "Major League" movie franchise. He also does some stand up comedy, and is hilarious if you ask me.

Today, the radio stream gave listeners the opportunity to hear the National Anthem, and to be honest, it wasn't good. The girl singing it changed keys by the second phrase of the song, couldn't find the melody line towards the middle, and completely re-wrote the "rocket's red glare" part of the melody.

Bob's response: "Well, ok. I hope that girl gets better soon." This was followed by: "I certainly hope you weren't eating while she was singing."

He's definitely not one to mince words, but that was a bit more direct than I was expecting.

He certainly makes a game interesting to listen to!
