I get that but too much talk and NESN constantly misses plays and pitches due to useless chatter and I just wish they would talk less and let the game speak for itself… time and time again we get “opinions “ just call the game.

Cannot stand Middlebrooks lately, too negative and paired with O’Brien is just too much chatter and all negativity.

Agreed! Just shut up or at least talk about the game … they are literally not paying enough attention

This is infuriating… please pay attention to the game! And shut up!

I truly don’t want to hear Papelbon worship Donald Trump when I’m watching (and paying for) Red Sox coverage. Won’t be watching anymore.

Please get Papelbon out of the booth. He needs to keep his politics to himself. His support of MAGA. Is not a good look for your organization.

Papelbon is an idiot and it is not a good look to have him on the broadcast. Red Sox need to jettison him.

Could not have said it better, they need to remove him from the booth because he is alienating fans with his MAGA bull

He is MAGA which means he is as dumb as they come.

This year’s whole vibe is off, the fireworks do not seem as good and I did not see the 1812 overture either. The music they are using is just not as good as years past.
