Overanalysis is a dish best served well-done. I mean, maybe, unless you have a lot of confidence in your skills and think you can hit that happy medium between medium-well and well-done. You also should think about factors such as dinner guest tastes. They may like a little bit of rawness in there, and it may not hurt to marinade as well to achieve full effect. Plus certain marinades can enhance slightly pink meat more than well done meat, since the juice is retained better, so actually how about “medium, with marinade”?

I’m one of those people who couldn’t care less what the guests like. I’m confident enough that 1) I’m going to like it and 2) most of them will too. My mom used to fret over large dinners.
@ Rice Cube:
Mccarver is a dumbass but earlier today he was on as a guest with the red sox announcers and I liked the guy. It was the first time I’d seen that side of him and it was refreshing. As an announcer he’s just horrible though.
Yeah that’s ignorance. McCarver clearly didn’t know it was a charity.
Well, they were discussing charities that would take the hair and then Buck suggested Locks of Love, and that’s where McCarver clearly didn’t know what was what. I think he couldn’t conceive of a charity that would need/want human hair. So on one hand, it’s silly because he wasn’t knowingly mocking Locks of Love or cancer patients, but on the other hand, they WERE clearly discussing charities and even if he didn’t know what it was or why they would want human hair, a rational, sane person would probably not mock it on television for fear of being mistaken for an inhuman monster.
He’s a dope, but not an intentional, mean-spirited dope.
@ mb21:
I don’t hate McCarver as much as some do because he is the less irritating one between him and Buck. I also saw him interviewed on one of those ESPN shows and he seemed likeable. Plus I remember him as a player fought alongside him in the Civil War.
He does say some awfully obvious shit during games though.

He very much seemed this way yesterday when he was on as a guest with the Red Sox announcers. I agree that McCarver is easily the least annoying of him and Buck.
@ Rice Cube:
Guy who tossed him without seeing anything, as it was completely behind his back, is calling balls and strikes for him today. Which I guess makes it a push, since it was Joe “I made umpires look like shit before it was cool.” West calling them yesterday.
@ BubbaBiscuit:
If Greinke can still throw strikes and get outs despite an evil umpire then I think the Brewers will be very happy…small sample size and Astros notwithstanding.

According to Deadspin, Tim McCarver is a dumbass and a douchebag. In other news, water is wet at room temperature.

I obviously don’t know McCarver personally but was just going off the headline here:

This is probably more a matter of ignorance than douchebaggery.

I might have overanalyzed that analogy.

McCarver also said Doubront shouldn’t be feeling fatigued cause it’s only June.

Also, Giancarlo Stanton is injured, so Bryce Harper will go to the ASG in his stead.

Greinke starts today. I believe that would put him in line for losses on consecutive days if he has a bad day or his offense completely fails him.

Dempster ERA under 2…what is that, 27 straight scoreless innings?

Starlin Castro just pretty much guaranteed the Cubs a win today.
