[edit] Biased/Point of View?

this line: While generally not as flamboyant as radio play-by-play man and infamous homer John Sterling, seems quite biased to me. who decides what is "flamboyant" or that someone is a "homer" ? I would like to see the line removed or edited.--68.193.18.140 00:32, 21 July 2006 (UTC)ConcernedUser4953829

It's easy to label John Sterling a homer. He is exactly that. He's probably flamboyant too. Infamous, however, is more a matter of opinion. Is he really infamous? I don't really think so.

[edit] NPOV, 7 September 2006

"While generally not as flamboyant or incompetent as radio play-by-play man John Sterling..."
"best known for his cloying "See-ya!"
"Lately Kay has given that up after being universally mocked as overly pretentious and insufferable."
"Also, the further Kay is removed from Sterling, the better his style becomes"
"As Kay matures as a broadcaster, evidenced especially in his Centerstage series on YES, he has the potential to make a lasting mark on the medium. He would be wise to ignore the influences of incompetent, egomaniacal and self-serving boors like John Sterling and instead emulate another proud Fordham alumnus and arguably the greatest baseball announcer of all-time, Mr. Vin Scully."
