that is true

I’ve had it for 3 or 4 years and I like it a lot. There’s always some bugs through the first couple of weeks, but it’s nothing to get bent out of shape about.

One reason I like it is because my computer monitor is right next to my television in my bedroom. I can put the Cardinal game on my computer and to satisfy my short attention span I can put another game or some other show on my tv.

But, overall I’ve been pleased with mlb.tv.

if a team's games are aired in your area,

you can’t watch them on mlb.tv. you can only watch “out of market” games.

one annoying thing about mlb.tv is they black out all saturday afternoon games because of fox’s coverage.

They get blacked out on Extra Innings too

That’s just one of the things about it. And honestly, most teams have wised up to it and try to start their games after 7pm Eastern time on Saturday so the National blackout rule doesn’t affect the game.

But you wanna hear some bitching about the Saturday blackout? Head over to BCB. I tried to point out that if they started their games after 6pm here in Chicago they wouldn’t have the issue, and I got the response I knew I’d get. “We CAN’T have Saturday night games at Wrigley”.

Well, the smaller you leave the picture the better quality it is

But even in full screen, the 1.2M feed, especially when broadcast in HD, looks pretty darn good and their video quality has gotten better every year so I expect it to be even better next year although I wouldn’t complain if it wasn’t.

Especially since they introduced at the end of the season the ability to choose the home or away telecast. There are some broadcast teams I don’t mind and some I actually like (Arizona and Dodgers) but the majority are a pain in the ass if you aren’t a fan of that team.

I'm as nauseous as I've ever been. I have a terrible headache. My head is pounding. I feel like throwing up and I'm having trouble swallowing. And the beauty of it is, you want to feel like this every day. - Tony LaRussa

It is such a shame

that he has to have that Mitochondrial condition. This guy is so freakin’ talented…the epiphany of a 5 tool player. Even if he can’t stay healthy enough to play, I really hope he can stay in baseball and become a player/coach type.

Baseball's weird

It’s criminal that Kirby Puckett, who was a joy to watch on the field, and who clearly just LOVED the game, had to get that eye condition while the Gary Sheffields of the world soldiered on.

I still can't get over the fact

that the Rays are this good…even with Baldelli not being healthy and a guy like Hamilton not being on the team. I mean, they’re great…but they could be even better if things worked out the way they were supposed to.

pitch counts

shields left after throwing his 104th pitch, meanwhile myers hasn’t hit 70 yet. pretty crazy that the score is 4-0 tb.

I love David Bowie

but surely, Lincoln is aware that Major Tom dies in the song? And it’s kind of annoying to be using a cover of it ina car commercial? Yes?

First, I can't believe the best they can find is two people from the military to sing

But, nevertheless, this guy was/is better than that girl who sung last night. But not much.

At this point, I want David Archuleta back. I might not like his rendition, but he can at least sing.

Nothin'. A handful of nothin'. You stupid mullet head. He beat you with nothin'. Just like today when he kept comin' back at me......with nothin'.

Yeah, well, sometimes nothin' can be a real cool hand.

I've always hated "God Bless America"

It is easily my least favorite patriotic song. It has this awful, meandering melody that never really goes anywhere. It takes a spectacular vocalist to make it sound even palatable, IMO

I think we're just over exposed to it

Especially with the amount of little kid choirs that sing it…therefore we expect it to be bad. If it was sung in moderation, it might be different. But sometimes I think it gets sung more than the National Anthem.

That's funny.

Here’s another that’s pretty good.

Raymond vs. the A’s bullpen

And apparently they have that dancing banana show up from time to time. This guy is nuts. I laughed out loud when he headbutts the girl as he walks off the field.
