Is Yankees broadcaster Suzyn Waldman a crybaby for feeling sorry due to the impending firing of Joe Torre?

Question

Is Yankees broadcaster Suzyn Waldman a crybaby for feeling sorry due to the impending firing of Joe Torre?

Answer 1

Worst announcer in baseball - period.



She had an orgasm over Clemens, now she breaks down like a little girl on the air.



Like John Sterling told her, "All good things come to an end."



I'm sure he wanted to slap the hell out of her instead, but unlike Waldman, he's a professional.

Answer 2

First off, I'm a Red Sox fan. I have seen a few games where decisions he's made I thought had a detrimental effect on the game, and that occurred about four times. The guy's managed what 1,100-something wins and 4 WS and 13 Post Seasons with the Yankees. They (Steinbrenner & Sons or Cashman) are absolutely retarded to let him go. Who the heck do they think they'll replace him with? Mattingly? Mattingly was a 1B, All-Star. Good Managers (of the caliber a Yankee Manager would need to be) are either Catchers or Pitchers, not First Basemen. I mean his first year there he managed a Word Series win... Another thing when we had that knuclkehead Dan Duquette he spent so much time blaming other people ... after a while there was nobody left to blame. The same thing will happen to Cashman (who looks like a typical New York City sleaze bag anyhow). Again, as a Red Sox fan, it's great news. I hope Torre goes to Texas, he can work some magic with them. He's a classy guy and he'll have a good future. Yank fans get ready for us to take many more Division Pennants now that you've just let the most experienced and argueably the best manager in baseball walk out the door.

Answer 3

Get off this "she has feelings" garbage. She is a baseball announcer! If she is that much of a fan that Torre getting fired (maybe) makes her cry, she needs to step down from her position. I mean, what will make her cry next, Mariano leaving for free agency. Will a mid season trade cause her emotional distress? The better question is - how the hell did she get hired in the first place??

Answer 4

I'm sorry, but if that was my mother, I would say, mom, get a grip! It's a game. Joe Torre did not DIE PEOPLE. She is a broadcaster and they are supposed to be professional and poised. When she announced that Roger Clemens signing, I thought I was going to puke and she even got ridiculed for that, but obviously she did not learn a thing from it. Even if it was a man, I would say the same thing. This is not a freak'n soap opera. Of course, she is a former actress, so I am not surprised she is so "dramatic". She gives all woman who strive to be a respectful and professional broadcaster a bad rap and takes them back a step in their quest to get chances to announce games.

Answer 5

First, Joe Torre is and always will be a class act wherever he works. He has a demi-god of an owner who sees nothing but the bottom line.

Broadcasters of Yankee baseball, whether local or national, will always have a "bend" towards New York. Witness Chip Carey's voice level whenever the Tribe had a good play or omigawd New York had an occasional hit (The Yankees are stunned, shocked, ad nauseum...). John Miller practically wet himself on radio in game three.

Waldman is doing what she is paid and told to do

Answer 6

This woman is everything that professionalism isn't. There is no doubt that being a home team sports announcer, you are going to show home team bias, but in broadcasting, you need to always remain professional and keep the fan emotions inside of you in check and do your role to broadcast the game. She needs to be removed.

Answer 7

Women are like that, they empathize with people who are in shi tty situation. Suzyn Waldman is alright by me. She survived cancer, and used to be a star on broadway.



But cmon now, fckin steinbrenner is half dead, and won't give Torre the respect of finishing out his career with his head up. Yankee Stadium is only going to be around for 1 more year, at least let him be the last coach in the old stadium. Hall of famers deserve that much respect.



Fck these past few years, i'll remember the championship years for the rest of my life

Answer 8

Everyone crys. Big Girls DO Cry. But, you dont cry when youre being listened to by hundreds of thousands of people. That is very unprofessinal.



If one of my very close friends had something going wrong with them or they were going to die I would cry. But I wouldnt do it in public. I would look like a idi**.



When Waldman cried she made herself and the Yankees look like a jack@$*

Answer 9

bunky.. lol



i would laugh at my mom if she was like that women..



she obviously either has pictures of someone having an affair,, or she is the one having an affair with someone to get that job..



she is horrible..



being home team biased is one thing.. but she is bad..



look at kieth hernandez and ron darling and gary cohen (i think) for a good team,, they actually PLAYED for the mets and they tell it how it is.. when the mets stink,, (often lately) they point it out.. so much that they are sometimes not welcome in the clubhouse..

thats how announcers should be,,



not like this purely obvious yankee homer..



she is the most unprofessional person in baseball..



"OH MY GOODNESS GRACIOUS!!!" lol just plain funny,, who cares if she is a women,, she chose to be in sports,, that qualifies her to be ridiculed..



so your the tight *** looser bunky!!

Answer 10

It may have been one of the most hilarious things I have ever heard. You New Yorkers crack me up, you really do. What really splits my gut is that that you think everyone in the country is lying there losing sleep over Torre's uncertain future and crying like Suzy, but in truth we are laughing our behinds off. You and the national media (and Chip Carey should be canned -- "Here come the Yankees!" -- what a joke) have become a laughingstock. Keep it up, though, it's really great stuff.

Answer 11

I still can't get out of my mind the PR fawning over Roger Clemens this hideous talking-head did earlier in the season. Her credibility is less than zero, so any whining has to be chuckled at and then disregarded.

Answer 12

Listening to her crying over Torre's post game speech was about as classic as it gets. Had me and everyone in my office cracking up.

Answer 13

No ITS called BEING A human

Answer 14

ALL MY GOODNESS GRACIOUS...

she is the worst announcer ever. she wud be great with Tim McGarver & Joe Buck. seems they all take it in the keister from Gayrod & Jeter & the rest of the spankmees

Answer 15

she is the all time worst person in the broadcast booth.

Answer 16

It's called being human & having feelings.

Answer 17

It's called feelings & caring something which you apparently don't have any. What if the broadcaster was your mother, sister or wife, would you laugh then. Grow up loser.
