  2. Watching the Jackie Robinson story right now on MLBN right now. Interesting that he is playing himself.
  3. Because I don't like the leagues that have the long playoffs. I guess that is the bottom line for me. Although I don't know how I'd feel if MLB lasted two months. I suppose I'd get pretty tired of watching the Yankees and Phillies beat up on people for two months.
  4. I can only assume you're also not a fan of college basketball. Umm March Madness lasts 1 month and no where near half the teams make the tournament. Playoff dates for last year: March Madness - 21 days MLB - 28 days NFL - 29 days NHL - 55 days (yuck) NBA - 57 days
  5. I can only assume you're also not a fan of college basketball. A) March Madness doesn't last two whole months, it lasts just over two weeks. B) I should have also added that the way the NBA plays basketball isn't all that appealing to me. Maybe I just don't watch enough of it (I do watch a good amount of NCAAB), but everytime I see an NBA game on TV and watch a few minutes it's just not very exciting. Seems like 90% of the shots aren't even contested, whereas in the college game there appears to be much more emphasis on defense. It just looks like two different games to me.
  6. horray for playoffs that seem to last two freaking months and that half the teams in the league are able to make
  7. Mariano's face in the background is awesome
  8. I guess the batters who get out against Doug Davis have the Vietnam mentality of "if you're gonna get it, best to get it early so you don't suffer too long"
  9. Jingoism has its time and place and an opening day is one of those times imo
  10. Moment of silence for Poland. Only in Chicago
  11. omfg this song they are playing is so dreadful
  12. excellent contribution to the thread
  13. Me and Fred watched that together today. It was ugly. He also made a really bad play on a pop-up and got ragged pretty bad by the hometown crowd about it. Hung-Wen Chen pitched a heck of a game though and Alex Maestri looked really good in relief. He has a pretty cool delivery.
  14. At Miss Braves v Tenn Smokies game with our esteemed Fred. Only prospect in this lineup is Castro. Can someone give a summary and score so far
  15. Surprised this hasn't been posted yet. Vid of Tiger Woods cussing at himself on the 6th. Love it
  16. I may be giving Theriot too much benefit of the doubt (actually, I definitely am), but it seemed like he might've known Cabrera was there and decided to try to get a free base. I agree with this. I doubt it. That would be super duper quick thinking to make that attempt spur of the moment like that.
  17. Soto starting? gosh, I hate it when our backup catcher starts
  18. Pomeranz' line against Georgia tonight: 8 IP, 1 ER, 4 hits, 15 K's, 2 BB dude is good
  19. Why does WGN even go to the effort to have those stupid hosts for "Movie Underground" or whatever. It's like it is out of some make work program from a stimulus package or something.
  20. if you value your life you'll never mention him again
  21. I was watching Tulowitzki during the Rockies game today and wanted to cry. My kingdom for a shortstop like that.
  22. nice to see Soto spoken of as if he is a personal catcher.
  23. I've got firefox right now and it didn't work for me either
