Eddie Murray, by all accounts was a good teammate. The Hall of Fame first baseman however was a salty-ass towards the media. He wouldn't talk to the media and basically treated them like dirt.
Alright, that's fine. If that's what he thought of the media, then that's his business.
Tonight, while watching the Yankees-Orioles game, Murray is in the booth with O's announcers Jim Palmer and Gary Thorne.
If I ruled the world, the rule would be simple. If you didn't talk to the media and refused to be civil and cooperative with them, then you don't get a chance to become a media member when your playing days are over.
I'd love to be in a position of power when a guy like Murray comes to me for a media job. I'd tell him to stick it.
