I completely, completely disagree about them loving the Yankees. Yankee fans will tell you, almost universally that McCarver in particular, is heavily anti-Yankee. There are a million instances, most recently in August where he belabored a standard ARod take out slide and implied it was a dirty play. He obsessed relentlessly about a Chad Curtis takeout of Omar Vizquel in the '98 playoffs and made Jaret Wright (then with the Tribe) into a young Sandy Koufax. The instances are legion.
One thing that McCarver does that annoys most fans is to repeat himself endlessly and belabor his points. Buck is just lame. Really, I don't know why any fans want these clowns broadcasting important games.
Really though, during game 1 they were all about celebrating the spectacular talents and clutch hitting of Papi and Manny declaring what a great pitcher Josh Beckett is, etc. You are no doubt used to the homerism of Remy and Orsillo, so when things went bad for the sawx last night it probably seemed that they were celebrating the Indians over much.
