    Hmmm..... sounds like your wife and mine are related. :wink: Haha. She's actually pretty cool about it. She doesn't care much for baseball, but she lets me enjoy it and actually lets me turn on the game if we're driving somewhere. God, but do I love that woman. There are women that won't let you turn on the game when you love the team? Kill me before I get married. That's going to be big fight. It becomes "Who do you love more, them or me" sometimes-the trick is to not get it to that point. Let up sometimes, make compromises to not have to watch every game live (with a DVR that's much easier), and it makes it much easier to watch plenty of games :D Separate TVs in separate rooms can be quite effective, too. not a bad idea unless these separate rooms are bedrooms..

    bah..I have a conference call scheduled tomorrow from 2-4. I'm so sick of vendor side project management and all of the associated accomodations that I make. Go Cubs!

    If we are talking about mlb.tv, then they likely determine your zip code based upon ip address.

    If you live in your team's market, then you will generally only experience blackouts during home games, except when the game is nationally televised (FOX, ESPN, etc.) http://mlb.mlb.com/mlb/subscriptions/mlbtv.jsp Local Live Blackout: ALL LIVE MLB.TV games will be blacked out in each applicable Club's home television territory (except for certain home television territories for which MLB.com may offer in-market subscription services) or in Japan. National Live Blackout (Regular Season): Due to Major League Baseball national exclusivities, scheduled webcasts of certain games during the regular season (including nationally televised games) will be blacked out. Please be sure to visit http://www.MLB.TV during the 2007 MLB season for complete and updated schedule information. one could us a proxy server to circumvent a local live blackout, but I'm not an advocate of this.

    I don't mind watching Pete squirm. I deem what he did to be worse than a player taking steroids or amphetimines when it was prevalent, and I believe a lifetime ban is appropriate. I have zero doubt that Pete's gambling affected the decisions he made as the manager of the Cincinatti Reds, and I certainly do not believe that he never bet against the Reds. He had a gambling problem. He lived for the high that one experiences when they win a big bet. It's akin to the high one feels on cocaine per my understanding. The brain releases that very same dopamine in large quantities. You aren't going to tell me that he never compromised his "integrity" to obtain that high. Keep showing more and more of your cards, Pete. At this rate, you may not even enter the Hall posthumously.

    Auburn has a respectable recruiting class, and it's likely top 10 caliber. Their biggest signing will probably be Kodi Burns, a 5 star QB out of Arkansas, whom could take the QB job away from Brandon Cox this year. I'd love to see that happen..He is the anti-Cox..he will scramble and he supposedly also has a very strong arm.

    too intoxicated to make a post on my blackjack while at the superbowl party..but HOORAY!!! One of my sports teams finally won a championship. It had been since the '87 Alford-powered Hoosiers. Peyton was almost teary-eyed immediately after the game.

    What a comeback by the Colts last night! Beautiful...The line is Colts -7, huh? If I were a betting man, I might be inclined to take the Bears. That said... Go Colts!
  20. fiver
    The game time temp is likely to be in the 20's this weekend. That has to be an edge for the Bears, right? Go Saints! Go Colts!

    As annoying as it may be, there's a reason. The goodoleboys routinely field the best football teams, with the exception of ND. If you want the system to change, you have to do more than just complain. Cuse, You and I had a conversation much earlier in the year and you suggested that the SEC's true ability would be "exposed" during the bowl season. I truly wasn't going to open my mouth after the bowl season, but your hatred of the SEC continues to affect your ability to evaluate in my opinion. The SEC was 6-3 in bowl games, and they legitimately could have been 9-0. Alabama lost to Oklahoma State on a last minute field goal. Kentucky beat Clemson 28-20. South Carolina beat Houston 44-36. Georgia beat Virginia Tech 31-24 Tennessee lost to Penn state, but the game was tied 10-10 with less than 10 minutes left. The Vols had possession, were driving down the field, fumbled the ball into hands of a Penn State player whom returned the fumble for a touchdown. Auburn beat Nebraska 17-14 Arkansas lost to Wisconsin 14-17. Arkansas outgained the Badgers 367-203 but found a way to lose that game. LSU beat Notre Dame 41-14 Florida beat Ohio State 41-14. The SEC certainly was down for a few years, but I don't believe this year can be included in that statement.

    I agree. We heard part of the story from Towers and more from Peavy's wife. I guess I'm not absolutely sold that the handcuffs were placed on Jake after he said "call a real cop."...although that is certainly where the conversation went south for him.
