It was lackluster. The new stadium has taken a lot away. Ok, I'm done.

the Coverage
Every game was broadcasted on national TV, what more did you expect?

I wasn't impressed with the Bama 1964 championship claim.

Yeah, AP & Coaches Poll national championships are really dubious.

The commentary is terrible. Biggest games of the year and half the time they're talking about minor league baseball in Alaska or something similar

That damn theme song was stuck in my head for a week.

I agree. Hasn't been the same since Rosenblatt.

The 41 claim is even less impressive

Then, they built the new stadium facing into the wind the majority of CWS game times. This season was different, but most of the time it's like it was last night, 15-20 mph winds coming in from center.

The only problem I had with the series is they have too many talking people in the booth. No need for 2 color guys trying to out-knowledge each other. Ben McDonald, and Burks (the Tennessee guy ??) and Perez talked way too much. I like Kyle Peterson and he adds about the right amount of input.I guess the best color guy (no pun intended) was Harold Reynolds back in the day. Apparently though, he had to be let go.

It just seemed under covered. Unless u knew it was own u would have missed it.

Harold Reynolds is the worst of the worst

None of the announcers should ever be on TV again.
