Who do these hosts think they are. I was shocked when I heard these guys on hear this morning talking about the Prince Fielder/Manny Parra fight. On the air saying he should have fought back or picked up a bat and hit him in the head. Are you kidding me? Leave the sports to ESPN. Today was the first time I watched the show and I will NEVER watch it again after what I heard today. Thats the message you want to send out? These guys should be fired or fined for they're comments. Do they even watch sports or just comment like idiots. Didn't anyone learn from O'Reily and Nas. They people aren't with you.
