Baseball screws up FOX's X-Factor

I think the MLB and MLB Postseason needs to leave FOX. If FOX cares more about their primetime then why bother having MLB and the postseason.

Could we see CBS, NBC, or ABC take the MLB and MLB Postseason? Possibly NBC as it wouldn't bother their primetime to much.

Also one weekend before college football on CBS, CBS had a MLB Show about the Postseason on. I was surprised, it had the guys who do the MLB for TBS. I doubt CBS would want the MLB Postseason.

No. It's the post season. Fox needs to keep baseball. They do a great job with it.

You are joking right?

FOX has done awful things to their coverage of MLB
- dropped the MLB on FOX theme music for NFL on FOX theme music
- made a stupid cartoon baseball called Scooter
- flipped a game to FX to broadcast a NASCAR race
- stupid ADs for FOX shows, X-Factor, etc

TBS's coverage of postseason is 110% better, and better announcers

What does TBS have to promote besides Conan and Tyler Perry? Not as much as Fox
 
Well, it was a good game for a lot of Rangers Fans out there in Big D last night as Texas trumped The Tigers 15-5 at The Ballpark, and They're set to play game 1 of The 2011 World Series on Wednesday.
 
It's a good thing I didn't tape "Terra Nova" last week because I would have lost it. I was watching and the game was on. I decided to tape instead and tape "House" as well and that worked out fine.
 
And I think The Rangers have already know who will be playing in Game One of The 2011 World Series: The St. Louis Cardinals The Cards will host the The first and last 2 (if Needed) games of The World Series over at The New Busch in St. Louis.
 
That's all well and good, but The Big Bang Theory is not exclusive to TBS like Conan is. In this case, I'm only referring to the reruns in syndication and TBS, not the current new episodes on CBS. As for Tyler Perry, I think I've seen Meet The Browns in syndication, so I don't know how that deal works.

TBS has used its reruns of Family Guy and The Office to heavily promote its original shows. You've seen heavy promos for Conan, My Boys, Meet the Browns and the canceled Glory Daze earlier this year. TBS will lean on the audience Big Bang brings the same way.
