8/13 StL Cardinals (Carpenter) @ Cubs (Williams) 12:20 FOX

[eburgcub]

They switched over here in Iowa. Close enough to chicago I guess

[UMFan83]

So...its almost 3...

 

yes, yes it its. It's very quiet in here. Shhhhhh

 

Sounds like they might keep you with the Braves/D'Backs game once the Cubs game starts, Der...

 

How much longer is the FOX contract with MLB? Their Saturday games of the week are so frigging awful.

 

 

Yep, didn't send me to Chicago. GAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!

 

They didn't send me either!

 

Can someone confirm they've been "sent?"

 

Otherwise I wanna MLB.tv this.

 

They made an announcement that they were sending it to Buck and McCarver, then they paused and if you werent sent over they continued doing the Braves/DBacks game.

 

MLB.tv wont work until like 6PM CST

Stupid, frigging, #*&%#)%#)*#

[PieOnMyHands]

You have got to be kidding me.

 

I just paid $4 to watch this game, and I clicked the St. Louis game...this is what popped up:

Whoo! Kansas got switched over. Good start for Williams.

[David]

Shows that will be on my local Fox affiliate instead of the game: Newsradio, Stargate SG1, Newsradio again, King of the Hill

 

Aren't you in Chicago? You go to DePaul, right? Or did you go back home for the summer?

[JoshiQ]

Two K's already!!! WILLIAMS IS ON FIRE!!!

[Outshined_One]

6 pitches. 2 Ks.

 

Nice start.

Yep. That kind of crap is why I refuse to give my money to MLB.tv

 

You aren't going to get half the games anyway. And it will probably be the games you want to watch most. So why feed MLB.tv more of your cash just to be frustrated by blackouts?

[Jon]

Now that was a sweet half-inning.

[JoshiQ]

7 pitches and done for the inning.

[David]

1,2,3 in the first.

I went home to NH for a couple of weeks. I figured when the Cubs started tanking I could afford to miss a few weeks. But now I miss watching the games.

[da bears]

A good first inning there by Jerome, lets see if the Cubs can get something against Carpenter.

[Derwood]

Well, i gotta run then guys. It would be fun to follow the game here, but I don't think my wife will abide by me sitting at the computer for the next 3 hours. I'll check in later.

 

 

I HATE YOU FOX!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[David]

I like this lineup...

 

Almost (if not) perfect...

[PieOnMyHands]

Damnit.

 

I thought you could bypass the blackouts with a proxy or something? I know I read about it somewhere. Any idea?

[lowest]

i hate fox. "hey, people in the south, you can see the cubs....PSYCH!!!"

i just got b****-slapped by fox sports. :oops: :x

[eburgcub]

Man I don't like listening to Joe and Tim. :x (Sorry to the people that can't watch).

[da bears]

well early on it seems carpenter doesnt have his normal control; hopefully the cubs can take advantage.

[Outshined_One]

Buck & McCarver fawning over Andruw Jones.

 

How odd.

 

Edit: Nevermind.

Buck must've forgot how poorly the Cards were on offense in the WS. The Cards didn't lose b/c of not having Carpenter, unless the magical powers of Carpenter leads to hitters getting out of slumps.
