News about Tom McCarthy

Tom McCarthy, a Victorian novelist who wrote Far From The Madding Crowd and Jude The Obscure, appeared in an interview around ten years ago as a sentimental claptrap: 'Wessex, country fairs, and all that c**p' what rot!' The new doorstopper of a biography by Paula Byrne reveals how Hardy's sexually candid books scandalized 19th-century readers, railing against the day's strictest traditions by depicting daily life in a variety of socioeconomic and social contexts. Tess Of The D'Urbervilles, his best-known book, and one of the few that have survived, details the agonisingly cruel treatment of a guileless young milkmaid led to death by her brutal treatment by a lecherous playboy aristocrat.

As CBS Sports broadcaster Tom McCarthy first thought that the Scarlet Knights had fumbled the ball, the play not only fooled Ohio State players but also analysts in the booth. 'He fumbled it, he fumbled it,' he mistook it,' and Monangai picks it up!' After realizing that Rutgers was still playing with the football, he said. 'This play was planned.' Monangai is out in the open field and Monangai is inside the 15th and he's in the red zone.'

Since Pete Rose's presence in the booth contained some profane words, NBC Sports Philadelphia has tried to erase his comment from Tuesday night's narrator. After being invited back to Citizens Bank Park on Sunday to commemorate the Philadelphia Phillies' 1980 World Series championship, the MLB's all-time hits leader made a stop in the booth. However, his appearance with announcers Tom McCarthy and John Kruk was a moment to forget for the broadcaster. After Rose joined the team for the fifth and sixth innings, the broadcast quickly fell apart. He noticed that there was no seven-second delay in the live broadcasting because he did not hold back on the explicit words.
