Yeti

not tall or black, but i think he has a number 2 on his jersey. :D yes, 26

Utley

F*** Barry Bonds and him wanting to play in the WBC "if USA makes the second round" nice play at the plate!!!

ok, granted i just woke up in time to see DLee's AB and i still feel a bit groggy, but is DLee standing further off the plate than he used to?

havent read it yet, but its on deck right after i finish "3 Nights in August"

first of all, lets lay off the "illegals" as a reason san antonio shouldn't have a team. i'm not trying to use them as a reason that SA shouldnt have a team, what i'm saying is that it is a very poor town and getting more so. this is one of the reasons i dont see baseball doing well there, the "illegal" situation was mentioned as a reason that the town is getting more poor, not as a reason they shouldnt get a team...geez your trying to make me sound like a bigoted ass, its not a knock on mexicans, its just stating an economic fact of the region.

An unsupported Chicken-litle argument isn't going to get far on these boards. Personally, I think San Antonio is a fine location, and the more spots that step up create buzz and competition for the other prime locations, the greater likelyhood a team gets into a better situation long-term. call it chicken little all you want, i spent the last 5 years in SA, and baseball doesnt have much of a folowing there(few astros fans and fewer ranger fans.) SA is very poor and getting more so with every fresh illegal that arrives. they support the spurs but they are an entrenched institution. SA already has a minor league team(the missions(a mariners affiliate)) the only nights there is a crowd at the ballpark are the thursday nights(its cheap ticket, beer and hot dog night) on thursdays a family of 5 can go to the park, eat and dad can get drunk for about $35. the city already supports one sports venue that dosnt bring in much revenue in the alamo dome and its not likely that the citizens would vote to support with tax dollars another stadium. let me ask you Dude, how much time have you spent in SA lately? how much time have you spent dealing with local politics there? i spent 4 years involved in grass roots activism(mostly on environmental issues) and know how the political machine moves there. they are very enthusastic on the front, but there is little momentum behind the initial showing SA would have a better chance of supporting football than baseball and SA is a decidedly Cowboys town

MLB in SA would be a disaster.

830 pm EST.... there will be a replay of joe castillano's interview with JH sometime in the next hour(supposedly....they kinda wing it on scheduling this time of night though) on XM175

supposedly "up close and personal" w/ JHJ

anyone else going to any games? i just bought my plane tix to san deigo and have tix for march 18, 20 lined up I AM VERY PSYCHED!!!!

ive got one and i think its a pile of crap...the recievers for the plug in antenna and power source didnt hold up, if i try to move it from my car to home or vice versa it takes 10-15 minutes just to get it to work properly again...i just went out and bought the $50 roady to use in my car so i can leave the myfi hooked up to my home stereo...granted it worked great for 8 months, but for upwards of $300 i expect better...also, it gets nothing for reception without either the home or auto antenna...the little personal antenna is awkward and not particularly effective

thank you very much, i intended to start a thread asking is anyone had this info

Do you get just the home team broadcast - or do you have a choice of either team broadcast? just home team

im not sure about the cheapest radio, but i got a second one yesterday for $50 (it comes with a port to use in your car and can be used in the home too, but you'll need to buy an additional docking station and antenna(another $40 i think))

Joe Castellano will be giving reports through out the day and the game tomorrow will be on channel 188 at 3pm EST also games friday on 181 at 3pm and saturday on 189 at 3pm

Do you know what station number? he will be giving updates all day and has a feature(not sure of the time i'll find out in a few minutes) channel 175

Joe Castillano will be in Cubs camp reporting for XM tomorrow...he mentioned a game, possibly he will give us a little play by play

i sure hope not...

what in baseball is?

This could be bad or good. Nah.....that's too negative even for me :oops: I think Jon meant it in a positive way. Yeah. I believe I read the other day that Rothschild was impressed with how well Miller has been doing. He said that he could probably throw off the mound right now but they're going to stick with the conservative plan. Probably a bit of an exaggeration, but as of right now, it's looking rather optimistic for the pitching staff. the other question will be how effective each will be? Impossible to say, of course. At least they are both pitchers who have had success in the league. im thinking that between prior, wood and miller we have the 2 and 3 spots locked, but that it will take all 3 of them to do iit(#1 spot of course being Z)4&5 spots we have maddux, williams and hill...rusch can trim the ivy for all i care...7 men, 5 spots

i was wondering how long it would take for a comment on this

if you speak the same way to your mother that you do to people here i doubt she ever said these things to you

ok, gotta say that these two put a smile on my face

i live in the mountains of NC, im at the outermost limits of cable, but the cable company doesnt have Xtra innings package, dish network here i come...ive never been w/o the package, and simply put, i will not do with out
