Sounds like Hud and Phys

[yk9001]

were having some fun last night at the Angels' expense. (I am only going w what I was reading from game thread comments last night).

 

Good on them.  I was one of the few who liked Phys.  I only disliked him in the crappy years, because he had to be a Company Man apologist ("Tim Belcher isn't having the best season, but he's a GREAT influence for the young guys").  But when the Angels were rolling, I liked Phys.  I understand the criticisms, but I enjoyed his pbp.

 

 

The hiring of Hud, and replacing with Goob, is one of those complete dunderheaded moves that Arte makes which makes no sense.  Nobody likes a three and a half hour little league coaching lesson every night about releasing your hands, bringing your hips around, and elevated pitches.

 

 

I miss hud and Phys.

[Jason]

I liked Hudler and his energy. Phys? Take him or leave him.

[Erstad Grit]

Agreed

[jshep]

Physioc was bland and Hudler was pretty much an 8 year old on a sugar rush.

 

I don't miss them at all.

[Jobu]

Oh let's do this again!

[EE_]

They seemed to be nice guys but I don't miss them at all.

 

Hudler went to the Dick Vitale School for Asskissing and Namedropping. It's very uncomfortable to have to listen to a grown man talk that way. I liked his enthusiasm for the game though.

 

Physioc just doesn't know the game of baseball very well. After more than a decade with the team that wasn't going to change. He also became an excuse-factory if the team ever slumped. Both spouted the company line at all times. Neither seemed very prepared or insightful. Rojas is a 1000X better than Phys. Gooby doesn't bother me much.

Hud's humility wore on my nerves.  He seemed like a decent guy and for the most part I enjoyed him, but every time he mentioned he wasn't a good player (or something like that) it was nails on the chalkboard to me.

[Bruce Nye]

I like Victor and Gubi.

[greginpsca]

Gubi is terrible. He is maybe the worst color man the team has ever had.  He has no more professional input than Hudler.

[Erstad Grit]

I like Langston

[Jason]

Hud's humility wore on my nerves. He seemed like a decent guy and for the most part I enjoyed him, but every time he mentioned he wasn't a good player (or something like that) it was nails on the chalkboard to me.

True. His humility was in a way, was bragging.

[tj_]

Yeah, Langston is way better than Gubi.

[ukyah]

i could never get down with up syndrome.

[CaliAngel]

I like Victor and Gubi.

 

I could take or leave both of them. 

 

Most likely leave. 

[Chuck]

I'd like to see Rojas and Langston.

I liked Phyz and Hudler.

[austin724]

I don't think Hud should talk. It was him who was caught with marijuana a few years ago and the team still kept him on.  If I had done that at my job I would be in the unemployment line.

I'd like to see Rojas and Langston.

Its happened before when Gubicza took a series off for his kids graduation or whatever the situation was.

[austin724]

Langston would be better off in the dugout.  The way he talks might kick fire this team.

[gotbeer]

Hate Hud.  With a passion.   Almost as much as MHD hates Bourjos.  Maybe more.

[AngelsAndRamsFan]

I don't know how anyone older than around 13 years-old could enjoy listening to Hudler do the games. He comes off sounding like a cheese ball clown. He talks down to the audience and treats the audience like a bunch of 8 year-old little leaguers that have never played baseball before.

[Jay]

Langston is good but I'm not sure he's that much better than Guby.  I know he says "we" when talking about the Angels, not even Guby does that.

[JAHV76]

Hud was too blunt

[Lhalo]

I don't know how anyone older than around 13 years-old could enjoy listening to Hudler do the games. He comes off sounding like a cheese ball clown. He talks down to the audience and treats the audience like a bunch of 8 year-old little leaguers that have never played baseball before.

Exactly. I don't think I ever learned anything from him that I didn't already know in 4th grade. I'm sure he's a great guy but him and Phiz in the booth were unbearable for me.

[Bruce Nye]

Travis Rogers had Hud on this morning.  It only took a few minutes before I was screaming at the radio,  because we've heard that same smack for a decade.  And he called Rogers T-Rog - good Lord. 

He didn't answer Rogers' question, he immediately went into his "attitude and football mentality"  approach to baseball - KC can have him.  (Rogers' question was whether the Angels had a nonchalant attitude.)

[The God of Runs]

Hud and Phys out

Halos haven't made the playoffs since

Coincidence?
