Broadcast

It's not annoying at all so far.

Both guys in the booth are tolerable with no soon-to-be-tiring quirks.

The graphics don't have grating features (like that rattle sound).

The new colors are kinda working, though the spare black-red-sand
thing is a bit narrow and glaringly contrasty at the same time.
Expand the sand and soften the transitions to black and the whole
package could work better.

Though it is kinda hard to watch the D-backs play the Rockies and not
see the Rockies in their blue unis and think they're the D-backs in
purple.

It's going to take a while.

The new louvered helmets are cool.

Have to agree, but I still haven't found anyone higher than a 2.5 on
the Vin Scully scale, I suppose there never will be? I used to "watch"
Dodger games on the radio because with Vin Scully and Jerry Doggett
broadcasting you could "see" the game better than watching it on TV.
Ooop, I think I just gave away my age.....

The only thing I see working is the new colors are probably going to
make me go back to being a Dodger fan, I can't stand the awful red,
it's annoying and now the website is so glaring that I can't look at
it.

Q. Are the owners really so small and petty that they completely ruined
the uniforms just so as to get rid of the last trace of Colangelo?

A. Yup, they got rid of the most attractive uniforms in baseball to
boot their egos.
