The Dumbest Thing Ever Said on BBTN?
>> Saturday
Maybe. On tonight's show, they were talking about this, and someone said "it's all about finding a way to win right there. Good job by them."
Wow. Just...wow. It's all about finding a way to win. In a game in which you get no hits and score the game's only run on a very questionable error/infield single, a two base throwing error on a steal attempt and a sac fly. That's the way they found to win. By relying on the Angels to make two mistakes right in a row that would allow them to win.
Fine, screw it. Joe Torre is just the best manager ever. He foresaw both of those errors, all old-tymey like.

Also, I can't wait to read about this game in the inevitable Tim Kurkjian/Jayson Stark "Can you believe that? That's baseball for you!" year end columns that we get every year.
Seriously, though, those are great.
Oh man, I wait all year for those columns. Are you like me and try to count how many of the things on his list you saw/remember from highlights? Love Jayson Stark.
In the "stupid things said on ESPN" category, however, I think I have you topped, albeit not by BBTN. During highlights of the EURO final last night, there was a play involving both Bastian Schweinsteiger and Mario Gomez of the German team. Stu Scott followed with this brilliant observation:
"Where else but in the EURO will you see teammates with the names Schweinsteiger and Gomez?"
If you're dumb like Stu Scott and don't pick up on the irony, the EURO is the absolute last stage for top-flight soccer where you'd expect teammates to have ethnically dissimilar last names.
