I just want to reiterate how much I enjoy baseball in HD and screw everybody for not making it possible to have WGN in HD on DirecTV

 

I was watching several games last night, the slow-mo replay of David Wright's HR was one of the coolest things ever -- the seams on the ball were clearly visible. there was a closeup of LaTroy's back in the NYY game where the stitching around his jersey numbers was seen. great stuff

 

then there's the WGN SD feed which makes me feel like I'm watching it through my window on my neighbor's TV and he's got his lace curtains closed

It is a thing of beauty and it sucks not to live in Chicago.

Is anybody else having problems with Gameday Audio? It was working fine for me before lunch, but now it starts and plays for half of a second then I get an error and it stops.

lou seems awfully defensive.

 

Not necessarily defensive. It sounds to me like he's getting pissed off because every time he makes a move someone second-guesses him. I think once we can get into a groove he will relax but right now we're still searching for our first win and everyone is already overreacting.

That's more what it seemed like to me. Except rather than being pissed off about being second-guessed, it seemed like he was annoyed at the fact that people were trying to bait him into saying something worth printing about the reason behind the switch, when Riot first and Sori second was the switch and now he's returning to normal. I thought the media was pretty obnoxious through that whole thing.

I don't think Lou is being defensive at all. He's right, he doesn't need to make excuses for every change he makes in the lineup. Some of the questions were ridiculous and had nothing to do with the move (like asking him if its fair to say he's impatient. What the hell kind of sports question is that?)

Uh, where the hell are all the fans? I know Ryan Dempster's starting, but did that really make them give up their tickets?

This is a Cubs game. Jobs are forsaken.
