JEA started their TV service about 3 years ago, but they've just started broadcasting the Jaxx. They did last night's game as well, but I'm sure they won't be doing every home game. I'll try to find a schedule somewhere. Also, I'm not too sure how this TV thing will work out. You'd think that would just make people want to stay home even more to watch the game instead of going to it. Oh well, I guess it's decent PR...

True, it's driving me insane right now. I usually watch Grizzlies, Predators, Titans, etc. games with the radio on, but the radio feed is usually faster than the TV feed. Makes things quite convenient.

Wow, I'm impressed. Of course it would come now. The guys calling the game are pretty good, but I'd rather watch the video and listen to Ron. :) Oh, you are, too? :lol:

On a Minor League related note, but not necessarily Cubs related note, video of tonight's Jaxx v. MS Braves game is currently being broadcast LIVE on the internets. Just go to the JEA E+Plus TV6 website and hit "Watch EPlus TV6." You're welcome. :D

Well...this stinks. The only thing I like about this is that the Jaxx and 'Backs names will rhyme.

=D> In addition to looking forward to the first Jaxx home game, I'm looking forward to seeing Jarrod Saltalamacchia. Darn, I can't be there tonight. Li'l sis has first softball game and li'l bro has baseball practice. Oh well, I'll get there sometime this week. Plus, I'm tryin' to get my Alg. II teacher to take us on a 'field trip' possibly Wed., May 3. Hehe. :lol:

Ooops! Didn't realize that! :lol: 'Get Out!' is a "what is happening this weekend" sort of section that comes out on Thursdays, unless they've changed it lately...

This story appeared in today's Sun. Enjoy! http://orig.jacksonsun.com/getout/images/Online-teasebox-0413.jpg This year is gonna be a good one. And those biker jerseys sound pretty sweet! Definitely gonna try to get one.

The Jaxx do still have that shirt, or at least did late last season. They don't, however, have a catalog, but I'm sure you could call them and ask. Their number is 731-988-JAXX (5299). Or, you could email them. Send it to Elizabeth Malone for merchandise.

The Sports Encyclopedia has some good pics. However, I'm not sure if they're "public domain."

Yes, they could, but if I were the coach, I would rather have a player not be able to play and them rehab during the offseason than from late March to July. But how is it different if they get hurt in the WBC or ST? I'm sorry. When you said ST, I was thinking September, which didn't make much sense to me either. :oops: Here's the thing, in spring training, the players are playing for nothing. But in the WBC, they are playing for a prize as well as national pride. They are much more likely to get hurt if they're trying instead of loping along and batting twice every 10 innings.

Well, they could start by doing it at a time when an inhuried player in the 'classic' didn't effect a team for 3 months. Imagine if Jeter or Lee got hurt, we wouldn't hear the last of it. We've been lucky thus far. Also, the Round Robin could be longer. Like they kept saying on PTI, it is ridiculous that a team like the US could have only played 2 games, and won one of them, and still be eliminated. So far, however, this 'classic' has been a good one.

The unflattering picture the mayor was talking about was one where he was mowing his lawn in a tanktop and Cards hat. :oops: Ok, not really, (thank God).
