Does Jon Miller Realize We Are In The Year 2010?

After the Flyers big win last night, Jon Miller decided to be very diplomatic to all of the Flyers fans tuning into see the Phillies by congratulating the Flyers on their big Game 1 win against the Expos. Joe Morgan then followed that up by babbling something about how the Flyers came back from 0-3 against the Penguins to get into the playoffs. Now as I searched for video of the world's most inane, hilarious, and pitiful hockey conversation, I stumbled upon an more funnier and shameful quote from Jon Miller from last night's Brewers-Phillies game. As if calling the Canadiens the Expos enough was not proof enough that he is old, senile, and has not caught up with the times, wait until you hear this description of Ryan Howard.



"He's not close to throwing anything even resembling a fat pitch here to Ryan Howard, the black right hander." - Jon Miller.

Uh.....yeah.........he just said that.

2 things. Now I am not in any insinuating Jon Miller is racist, but since when do we categorize baseball players on national television broadcasts by the color of their skin?

And secondly, does this look like a right handed hitter?

Pay no attention as I bury my head in my palms out of shame, pity, and embarrassment. Actually, make that a double facepalm as words do not even begin to describe the idiocy, stupidity, and senility that was Jon Miller last night.
