I don’t know much about former Padres pitcher and current analyst Mark “Mud” Grant, but I do know one thing: In the short amount of time the Phillies were in San Diego, he obviously tried copying off the King of Broadcasting Style, Sarge Matthews. Friday night, the man whom they call Mud was in the Padres broadcasting booth – sans hat – to witness the 1-0 pitcher’s duel between Jamie Moyer and Greg Maddux. Well, guess who showed up Saturday night wearing a cheap imitation of a Sarge hat?
(Alright, I’ll tell you — Mark Grant)
Now, I’d be willing to bet Mr. Grant was roaming around the press area on Friday night, caught a glimpse of one of the many beautiful hats in the Sarge Matthews hat collection and rushed to the nearest San Diego hat store. Then he grabbed some crappy hat hoping he would look as cool as The Sarge.
Hate to break it to you Mark, but NO ONE is as cool as Sarge Matthews. NO ONE!

Is that Tony Gwynn or Shawn Andrews trying to cheer himself up with some football?
What, too soon?

tony gwynn = beetlejuice’s long lost father

Tony’s facial expression leads me to believe he just contaminated the air in the booth.

Mark Grant = epic fedora fail
Tony Gwynn is too fat to tuck in his shirt.

I wonder where Tony Gwinn got that fat suit.

How do you see Mud behind Tony?

Mark, Don’t listen to all those naysayers. When any of them come to Illinois, I’ll cheer for them as long as they’re on the North side. Until then keep ‘em happy and guessing.
love to all the family. Uncle Hoss
