Whether it’s Sterling, Flatherty, Waldman, Kay, or any of the other YES Network and WCBS 880 broadcast members, the fans always have something to complain about. It could be the crazy home run calls by Sterling, Kay’s big head, or the boring Flatherty (I don’t think he is). You even hear people make rude comments about the lovely Kim Jones. I just don’t get it.
Every person has their own quirks, and if you don’t like them for any reason..why don’t you just mute the tv? Nobody is forcing you to listen to these games. You can say the same thing for Buck and McCarver. If you hate them so damn much, just turn off your television. People don’t realize how hard and grueling these jobs really are. Let’s remember that these guys call and report from a 162-game season.
I was actually waiting outside the press gate the other day, after that grueling loss to the Tribe and I had the chance to meet Michael Kay and John Sterling. I could see they were both in a rush to leave the ballpark, but they took the time to shake my hand and sign a baseball for me. Even Suzyn Waldman waved hello.
I’m just sick and tired of all the complaints and rude comments these people have to hear. It’s unnecessary.
When Sterling makes the broadcast about the Yankee game and not John Sterling, people will let up on him.
Michael Kay has gotten better and I have no issues with Singleton, Flash, or Kim Jones. But Sterling and Waldman are almost unlistenable. The majority of the broadcast is them patting themselves on the back or contradicting themselves. It’s pretty bad and you can’t just turn on mute for the radio.
I agree with Mr. Ham. I like the YES crew fine, but John Sterling doesn’t actually broadcast the game that is being played; he broadcasts John Sterling’s version of the game that is being played. I’m sure he’s a nice guy, but that doesn’t make him a good announcer.

kim jones is hot
sterling and waldman – there is no field action to be seen on radio and you don’t dare leave any dead airspace for more than 1-2 seconds. try talking at a constant pace for 3-4 hours and then tell me you didn’t say anything goofy.
