I figured that Jim Gray would pop off to the wrong athlete one day and get knocked out. Or, maybe I just hoped that would happen after he ambushed the great Pete Rose with questions about his gambling at an inappropriate time and place, Game 2 of the World Series after he had been introduced as one of the All Century Team members. Pete Rose was there to answer questions about the All Century Team and Gray not only ambushed "Charlie Hustle", he never let up.
Jim Gray has had many run ins with athletes over the years. The way he treated Pete at the World Series in 1999 makes perfect sense now. Jim Gray has very little talent and the only way for him to move up was to be the arrogant jerk he is when he is working. I hope this move by the Golf Channel is just the beginning of the end for Mr. Gray. If the other networks put a leash on Gray and his "National Enquirer" style of reporting, his lack of talent and knowledge will be exposed. Jim Gray's talent is to infuriate athletes so the spot light is put on Jim Gray for ruffling feathers. Mr. Gray wont be on cable access for his knowledge of any sport.
