U.S.S. Mariner: DMZ: Rick Sutcliffe is a horrible person and ESPN’s no better
BBTF's Baseball Primer Newsblog —
U.S.S. Mariner: DMZ: Rick Sutcliffe is a horrible person and ESPN’s no better Not since ball-peen mad Peter William Coonan was allowed to visit his father’s gravesite has a Sutcliffe been treated so badly! I was watching ESPN’s broadcast of the Braves game tonight, and there was a really, really weird moment where they were discussing Rick Sutcliffe taking time off to go get cancer treatment, and Erin Andrews was in the stands and wished him well or something — I wasn’t really paying attention, it seemed totally pointless — at which point Sutcliffe went off on a bizarre rant ...
Chicks Dig The Double Standard
Jockish —
... I know this has nothing to do with baseball, but since I am a baseball commentator, and this concerns something I supposedly did during a baseball game, then I guess it’s a baseball matter. A loyal fan e-mailed me this little “blog” link concerning a little something I said last night concerning the lovely and talented (wink wink) ESPN journalist ...

... Just a bit more than awkward there, and I'm sure EA doesn't mind it, but I wouldn't be surprised if Sut got a talking to before his break. USS Mariner though thinks the penalty should be a little harsher. ...
Rick Sutcliffe Is A Mere Mortal And Cannot Control Himself Around Erin Andrews' Beauty [Love In The Broadcast Booth]
Deadspin —
... It's relatively harmless and probably something that Andrews herself isn't completely used to at this point (plus, you know, Sutcliffe is recovering from colon cancer right now), so she's a tough girl and probably not offended. Yet, blogger USS Mariner took offense to the whole thing, and decided it was time to act chivalrous for once, without the requisite half-erection. ...
Title IX Writer Weighs In II: Rick Sutcliffe Boogaloo
Bugs & Cranks —
... It seems that last night, Sutcliffe went off on a rant during the game about Erin Andrews, “how good she looked, her skirt, and how everyone was watching her and her skirt and when they cut to the broadcast booth, his partner had this weird look of terror and shock on his face, and they chatted about how distracting she was around the batting cage” (via USS Mariner story). There is video available ...
Rick Sutcliffe Is In Love
Foul Balls —
It was pretty nice to have Rick Sutcliffe back in the booth covering a baseball game after his current battle with cancer, but you know what's nicer than that? Having Erin Andrews in the park with you and looking good. Not even Rick gave a crap about his cancer last night, choosing to spend his time hitting on Erin instead. Some people have taken offense at the way Sutcliffe acted last night, and the way people have treated Erin in general, but it's hard for me to get mad at Rick for it. God knows if I was around her I'd be trying to do the same damn thing, except I wouldn't ...
Talking Heads Gone Wild
Baseball Digest Daily —
... Conlin wasn't the only one in the media making stupid comments this
week, either. U.S.S. Mariner, the great Seattle Mariners blog, has a scathing rebuke
of former pitcher and current ESPN color analyst Rick Sutcliffe for
some comments he made about Erin Andrews during the Braves-Cubs game
last night. To quote the blog: ...

Rick Sutcliffe Enjoys Erin Andrews’ Skirt
MVN Outsider —
... A classically awkward Sutcliffe moment: “You think all eyes weren’t on her during batting practice?” It’s worth noting, however, that some weren’t terribly amused by Sutcliffe’s remarks — notably, the blog “U.S.S. Mariner.” Here’s what they had to say: ...

Richard Deitsch: Remembering Russert
SI.com - Extra Mustard —
... looks are a big part of the equation for most jobs on television. But Sutcliffe's comments -- which are objectiying by any standard -- are particularly disturbing because it came from an employee of ESPN. The network and its airwaves should be the one place above all where Andrews is not exploited. I don't doubt Sutcliffe thought he was being a fun-loving jokester but the message is Andrews is an object and not a broadcaster. That's a bad message. One prominent baseball blogger called for Sutcliffe to be fired. (And touched off an ...
ESPN Replacing Rick Sutcliffe in the Postseason?
The Big Lead —
... At any rate, we hear Sutcliffe won’t be calling MLB postesason games for ESPN radio, and the network is in the midst of seeking a replacement. According to a source, ESPN is saying the need to replace Sutcliffe is “health-related” (he underwent chemotherapy for colon cancer in the spring) but the conspiracy theorist in us wonders if that’s just a cover-up for all the bad press he’s ...
