Who?

His blog - Approve
Listening to him on BBTN - Disapprove

Disapprove, but only because Gammons has turned me completely against baseball.

Last Night is a fine read.

Approve.

This is the Olney post I'm reading this afternoon.

Approve? I dont' know, but I wish him well. In that I don't wish him any specific ham.

Buster Douglas>Buster Olney

Still approve though.

@Stev D: Ham? It is lunch time.

"This is the Olney post I'm reading this afternoon."

In Stark contrast to other days.

Abstain.

Would really approve if he had the balls to legally change his last name to Hymen.

Approved for now, until his Vanderbilt kills my bracket

Olney : Poor Man's Jayson Stark :: Jayson Stark : Poor Man's Peter Gammons?

/approve out of guilt

i'm somewhere where i don't know where i am!!!!!

I like Buster a lot. He's kind of an old-school reporter in that he seems generally excited to have a job covering baseball and his love for the game is pretty transparent.

Bust-er? I barely knew 'er.

@Chamomiles Davis: Then who's the poor man's Buster Olney?

Dude knows how to milk a cow.

Approve.

Then who's the poor man's Buster Olney?
Joe Morgan.

I approve, even if he drinks cognac and eats gouda cheese.
Pig can fly.

Approve.

Is this a still photo from an airport security camera?

@gjdodger: Joe Morgan is more like the homeless man's Bill Plaschke.

Who's a good baseball analyst? Who's the best little analyst in the whole wide world? That's right, Buster. You are!

Buster Olney not > Parliament/Funkadelic Bassist Busta Cherry.

Disapprove for that reason alone.

Is this the one who's hand was taken by a loose seal?

I don't have any real strong opinions about Buster one way or the other, although I thought Last Night of the Yankee Dynasty was well written.

But he always has this look on his face like the dad who will turn this car around if you kids don't shut up.

How could you not like someone who had a cow as a pet...and his name is Buster. That's a recipe for likability.

Buster Hymen

/cheaplaugh

This whole post is Bol-olney
/here all weekend

Buster needs to comb his hair once in a while.

Approve

Disapprove. I just plain don't care for him.

Approve. The avatar would have gone on strike if I didn't vote this way.

Knows his shit. Non-schticky. Approve.

base-ball?

To continue reading this article you must be an Insider.

---And for that reason alone, Disapprove

Buster is good, and I'm sure it takes a lot of inner strength to walk into work every day and know that Steve Phillips & John Kruk are employed as baseball analysts on the same network you are.

I remember when I saw Steve Phillips critiquing trades on deadline day...Steve Phillips, critiquing trades? In the words of Gob Bluth, "COME ON!"

Olney is a lot like Peter Gammons, except he is right most of the time.

Stansbury is all the rage. Approve.

Olney is all that's wrong with the traditional baseball media. He invented the "productive out," a junk stat that was constructed entirely to be anti-Moneyball and his love for Jeter's "character" knows no bounds.

Dis. A. Prove.

Young MC says, "Buster? Approved!"

ESPN is lucky to have coherent, sensible guys who love baseball as much as Olney and Caple.

Approve.

Approve - Knows his baseball, is a local boy (from the great Northwest) and isn't too big for his britches to still call in to local radio shows. And his name is Buster.

"Dammit Jim, I'm a doctor not a sportswriter"

Approve.

He's Vandy and Vandy is good people. Except their hoops team. Damn them

If he dropped the Yankees schtick, I would approve. It's embarrassing. Greenberg loves him though...which means I doubly disapprove.
