Greg Maddux wins 300; Fox makes sure east coasters miss it

Greg Maddux is such an amazing pitcher. Yeah, he's not quite what he was in 1995, but he can still dominate. He's such a good guy, too.

That said, the Fox Saturday baseball monopoly must end. ESPN has lightened up, but they can't? I've seen ESPN broadcasts cut into for half innings of a guy pitching a perfect game in the 7th, but no one can show the end of the game resulting a win for a guy who could be the last 300 game winner for a long while. It's bullshit, and despite his reticence about it, Greg Maddux deserved better.

I hate the "let's cut to Barry Bonds" on every at-bat but not covering Maddux. Gay.

Everything about Fox sucks. Fox News, Fox Sports, FX, etc. Actually, let's just torture Ruport. It's all his fault: The New York Post is a piece of shit too.

Tom Glavine would be a lot closer to 300 if he got run support.
