Maybe—as we've long suspected—it's because none of the NOG (New Ownership Group) principals is
from here. What other possible reason could there be for
ClutterGate—the incredibly stupid shrinkage of their Sox telecast screen with garbage-laden sidebars? This, from the only major regional sports network that does
not have a
SuperSloMo replay capability. What are these bozos thinking? Predictably,
Twitter went bananas with negative commentary all night long. It's bad enough that
Dave O'Brien and
Jerry Remy have to "pop-in" with annoying 'ad copy reads' every five seconds, now
this? Earth to NESN—hire some locals! You know, people who grew up
within Route 495 and know what we like and don't like? Geez!
