Ol’ Billy Baseball joins the NESN broadcast booth after throwing the ceremonial first pitch at Fenway Park. Toronto Blue Jays vs. Boston Red Sox | 4/19/22 #mlb #billburr #redsox #bluejays #mondaymorningpodcast
You could see how the mere mention of the phrase "white people" at the end got the announcer very nervous. He was probably thinking, "Phew, he didn't offend anyone ... Wait, what?! ... Go to commercial! Go to commercial!"
"Who drinks this stuff?". That was possibly the worst line anybody could ever say about their product. 😂 I'm sure their stock price took a small hit 😂 brutal!
@9:53 Bill trashing 🇨🇦 was spot on…he was just warming up when they moved on. He needs a full game guest spot but we all know MLB are too much of a pus sy to allow that
Repent to Jesus Christ “He cuts off every branch in me that bears no fruit, while every branch that does bear fruit he prunes so that it will be even more fruitful.” John 15:2 NIV hu
@@WarPigs413 I presume you heard him make the statement, right? He's making a joke about how in Boston or...I guess anywhere, due to the costs of Unions, in a JOKING manner, he says he understands why they're manufacturing things out of this country...so as to not have to pay union prices(which sometimes include kickbacks). But it's like a TERRIBLE reading of that as it's a joke. But that's the sentiment. He sees the Union guys with their feet up, when he asks for alcohol for his room, they stock it...charge him, and then take it with them? Kinda the stereotypical New York, New England Union type guys...those things all cost more for a production of any kind and it's just a Bill Burr throwaway line.
He could do his own radio broadcast where he could say whatever he wants. Norm Macdonald did it for a few if the Masters. You just turn off the commentary and listen to his. I'd watch it in a heartbeat
That's how its done. Shoot the s××t, but when there's baseball, let the announcers call whats happening. You don't see this too often, when people are in the booth.
Ol Billy Base-Balls getting the light after his ten minute set we hilarious. “Are electrolytes even real?” Hahaha! Bill’s throwaway lines are fucking brilliant!
@@chasejordan9295 nah, Canadians are exceptionally arrogant for no reason compared to other cultures. Before you get arrogant and jingositic, I’m Canadian
The European settlement of Canada was done surprisingly well in comparison to America. It was done entirely by treaty, almost none of which were broken.
@@DJones1048 LOL...I can already hear Burr doing some bit comparing the epidemic of gold digging whores who hang around NBA kids vs the guys who hang around the WNBA. I mean...I can only hear part of it as I'm quite clearly not as funny as him, but a good jumping off point would be some joke about how PJ Washington is paying his gold digger 180K a month...while Bella Donne is paying hers with a used 2009 Toyota...that work? She straight? Is that even how her name is spelled? Should I just leave this to Burr? I definitely know the answer to the last one...
He really should. At least a couple games a month. Rogan does UFC why shouldn't Bill do MLB? I guess he lives in LA so it'd have to be the Dodgers, who might not go for it. They'd be so lucky..
having listened to bill for as many years as i have I know he was absolutely terrified about botching that first pitch. thrilled for him that he nailed it!
There should be at least 1 high level comedian on every sports broadcast. All sports. Some of these guys take life way too serious. A good standup could take the piss outta not only the other commentators, but, the teams, players, fans, owners...be a helluva lot more fun to watch!
@@squigtonianmayhem4602 that would be the worst thing and let me tell you why: There’s nothing worse than listening to a comedian be held down by a ball and chain in a producer. It be such a neutered, watered down, milk toast version of the comedian. Maybe if we got rid of our puritan standards when it comes to live TV and the FCC it would work.
I love the guy. Ive lived in Boston my whole life, and just hearing him talk about certain things and totally connecting with it and understanding why he is how he is makes it even better. 100% a national treasure 😄👍
@@dommyboysmith i lived in boston for a few years in my 20's... great times of my life. bill always makes me homesick. his take on boston characters is 100% accurate.
@@thessa8464 Companies will often go make stuff overseas to avoid unions. Unions can help make sure employees are treated more fairly, but they can also make it so employees get too much, line their own pockets, and even screw over workers themselves. It is often cheaper(and easier) for a company to pay to build a factory in another country, pay employees there, and pay to have the goods shipped back to the US then it is to deal with unions.
@@sdfeinstein lol BRO that fuckin Michael Moore documentary where he walks around Windsor and nobody locks the doors there or whatever… like DUDE he picked quite literally the WORST city in the United States and said “this is Canada, this is the US” like I’m not over here comparing Boston to Winnipeg Lolol.
Just drove from Cincinnati to Nashville to watch his show this past wknd, & he killed it. From beginning to end funny. Literally my face hurt by the end lol.
@@stevewright6290 Hell yeah. Omg I know lmao. Some dumb drunk chick constantly yelling & waving her arms 🤣. If there was ever a comedian you don't heckle, it's Burr. Lol
Just when Bill was getting it going...very funny stuff. They should just treat MLB broadcasts like a bunch a guys roasting each other in a beer league. Baseball fans take games 34 to 122 way too seriously.
The sport of disc golf has grown. The commentary has been great because it has humor, roasting, trolling, combined with deep game knowledge and experience. High end graphics, follow flights, etc.. Not every commentating group does it, but several do, and it adds to the entertainment. The commentary is also coming from actual players and hall of famers who are friends with the players they roast. I hope they never change that. Tomorrow is the largest skins game, and the players will all be roasting each other during the match.
@@coachbrandon01 Wait...you're talking about when you go to the park and play with frisbees? Is that what it is? LOL...I went to a College that had an INCREDIBLE...course I guess you'd call it. I actually took the class! It was fun...if that's what you're talking about.
The best part of this is O’Brien trying to keep things on the rails and Youk cracking up at every joke. Youk’s face when Bill says he gets why they make pants in Mexico 😂
When the announcer asked Bill why he actually threw from the mound instead of in front like other people, I immediately thought “Because Bill doesn’t want people to call him a f-g!” And then Bill made the reference about banana pancakes. 😂
Agreed! As someone who lives in the battle ground state of CT, between Yankees & Red Sox, the banter and rivalry gets heated, but is mostly good-natured( unless people have been drinking too much)!
I would say years of getting roasted by some of the most vicious comics on the east coast for 10 years while doing some of the worst gigs probably honed his mind alot more lol
@@nilesstevenson734 Fair enough. I’m from Pittsburgh so I assume the Pirates sucking my entire life (31) heavily contributes to my disinterest in baseball lol
@@Bhutchin09 in Sweden baseball is a super duper niche, instead most swedes play something called "brännboll", roughly translated to Burn Ball lol. The burn refers to when a batter fails to make it to base. It's baseball but without the rules and you're usually drunk. Oh, and the "out team" who isn't battering, can catch the batters and physically keep them from reaching the base 😂 It's. Glorious.
Dang I didn’t realize he was performing I would’ve loved to have gone. I saw him in Detroit years ago when I lived in Michigan. Laughed the whole night.
Can we just appreciate the effort Bill consistently takes to put other comics over. For such a psycho, the guy seems to be a genuinely humble, kind person.
Well at least you baseball team is good; too bad about that hockey team there! You ever miss the Expos? You think they will be able to get them back in our life time?
Honestly, minus the feet, the mechanics of Bill's pitch are pretty good. He does practically everything a real pitcher would do; forward momentum on the drop, decent hip rotation, he pulls the gloveside as he starts the whip and he even does a little back inflection on release. A+ celebrity pitch👏🏼
Baseball needs adult broadcasts. Hire someone like Bill Burr to do a game a week and just watch the funny money roll into MLB's bank account. Bill Burr and Sean Casey would be a great combo.
@@JustinFine92 why watch the video if you’re just gonna be negative? Why give support to Bill Burr by generating ad revenue, if you’re going to be offended by his humor?
4:24: “ I wasn’t doing that, cause you know they’d be like, ‘what are you…’ you know? ‘You throwing from the grass? You put banana in your pancakes’” This was hilarious cause all I could hear was him yelling “what are you a fag”. A classic bit getting a shoutout BRILLIANT!
This is one of the best in-game interviews I’ve ever seen in any sport. Bill was great and the announcers did a great job letting him free wheel but still keeping him focused.
Having Bill Burr as a commentator is like having the perfect white noise to keep you interested between big plays. Its like having a beer drinking buddy without having the drinking buddy when you watch a game alone... only Burr's humor is great.
Gotta love the nervous excitement around him when Bill's live. Bill's so damn good that I now love Youk in the booth, just cause he was laughing and rolling with it. This and Uecker getting pimped into telling the story about how a Cubs fan jumped into his car have been my favorite moments of the season.
