Would you have a problem if a certain baseball Announcer was announcing your teams Playoff games?

I'm asking this b/c i been hearing some Yankee fans have a problem that Ron Darling a Met Announcer will be announcing some of the Yankee Playoff games. What are your thoughts on this & would you have a problem if a certain Announcer announced your games if your team is/where in the Playoffs? For me the only one i would have a problem with is Gary Cohen the other Met Announcer. I heard one of his Playoffs games when he announced a Yankee Playoff game on Radio(For ESPN Radio i believe) & needless to say in my opinion anyway that his hatred & biased against the Yanks really showed. I hope Howie Rose gets to do his share of games as i feel he's one of the very few who's not biased. I'm not asking these announcers to kiss my teams fanny but at least be fair & objective.

I also include Buck but we sadly know he will be doing the Fox games anyway. What i meant in my question was that lets just say that one of the Dodger announcers was picked to announce a Giants Playoff game. Would you have a problem with it like some Yankee Fans have a problem that Darling( A Met Announcer) will be announcing some of the Yankeee games.

I would not bother me who announced my teams games. As long as they are not biased towards one team or another then I am cool with whoever.

TBS, who will be broadcasting a lot of the play off games, are an anti- Yankees channel because they have connection with the Braves and the Yankees beat the Braves multiple times during the 90's. I like Ron Darling, much better than Cohen and Hernandez from SNY who are much more Mets biased than Darling. I don't like the Fox, TBS, or YES announcers at all even though I'm a Yankees fan. I like ESPN if anything.

How the hell do they have a problem with Ron Darling, but yet the same people will listen to John Sterling & Suzyn Waldman?

Ron Darling is so much better.

I don't understand the problem. If you don't like him, turn down the sound and turn on the damn radio. I guess they're just getting warmed up for all the complaining they'll be doing after the Yankees go in three straight.

I'm no fan of Joe Buck, and I don't mind Ron Darling but I much prefer hearing John Flaherty, David Cone and John Singleton, over everyone on TBS and Fox most of the announcers seem to be anti Yankees.

Yeah I would, if the Giants made the playoffs I don't want to hear guys like Buck and McCarver. I want to hear and watch the guys that have been calling Giants games for a long long time...Kruk and Kuip. I wouldn't mind ESPN tho, with Jon Miller and Morgan.
