  1. Are you making a stop in Chicago? Tulsa to Houston is 8 hours max. No I can't make any long road trips this summer on account of my current car situation. I was only making an example of Houston, I haven't actually don't a 24 hour turnaround baseball trip.
  2. As far as I know these B.S. blackout restrictions came around with Selig in office. I pay $120 a year for MLB.TV and I'm LOCALLY blacked out of games in St. Louis, Kansas City, Arlington, and HOUSTON. Keep in mind I live in Tulsa, Oklahoma which is a whopping 500 mile round trip to the closest park (KC). If I were to go to Houston for a game it would take me nearly 24 hours of driving without sleep. Unbelievable. Does anyone know how I can get ahold of the central office? I need an explanation as to why Houston is local to me. I'd like to know the last time Bud Selig traveled 100 miles to a baseball game without using his private jet. Let alone on my budget. The fans need to overthrow this regime. Period. Nothing good has come from it. And to top it off I was blacked out of a Rangers game which was played in ANAHEIM tonight. How is this justified? This should be criminal.
  3. April 11th vs Houston
  4. How'd we ever win 5?
  5. Not sure of the exact quote, but I remember him saying something like "walks just clog up the basepaths".
  6. Anyone remember the days before the validation keys? Oh man I could setup automated voting macros and really cleanup. I just did 150, I think I saw the same validation code twice, not sure though. :lol:
  7. Pitchers aren't voted on. I'll be doing somewhere around 50-150 a day... I'll try to keep a tally of what I do in this thread. BTW, I own my own domain name with a master email address that catches anything@mydomain.com lol. No problems with the email address issue here.
  8. I am not assuming you haven't been to any of those places...But I truely hope you are only judging it against places you have actually been to. No, I'll be honest, I am completely judging them on T.V. viewing only. I was just expecting a much nicer park, that's all. I guess I will have to see it next year when it's done.
  9. BTW, the stadium is trash. I'm not saying this because I'm a Cub fan either. It doesn't even come close to comparing to SF/Mil/Pitt/AZ/SD or any of the new parks. Total crap job. And they tried to make it look just like the old Busch in too many spots, ridiculous.
  10. For original content? If they flag this for infringement, I'm calling Selig. I have some choice words for him.
  11. 5 rows from the field. This should give you a decent look at the new ballpark. Which is a complete "Class A" experience by the way. http://youtube.com/watch?v=AaaTUgyvacw Dan.
  12. You can never have enough Paul O'Neils or Rusty Greers on a ballclub.
  13. He's also a gold glover. I had to throw that out there.
  14. If he goes 3 for 4 again, I could give a s*&t where he bats. Yeah and if he goes 3 for 4 every day then screw Ted Williams... Ted's the only man colder than Aramis Ramirez.
  15. The Bleacher expansion was not supposed to happen. Remember, the Cubs' first night game (under the lights) was rained out as well. Perhaps we shouldn't touch Wrigley Field? Dan.
  16. I still like "Juan Dog". Someone give the man a 40oz bat and hit him leadoff.
  17. I have Nutrition class on Mondays from 1:00-3:50 and a Humanities class at the same time on Wednesdays... Needless to say, I won't be spending any time at school this week lol. Opening Day is my annual skip day, it's tradition. Well, actually I think I've never gone to class during a game unless I could tune in to MLB.TV from the class lol, Cubs baseball just makes more sense than going to school. Dan.
  18. Yeah, and we should pull a trade for Soriano and stick him in left.
  19. Are you aware of who manages the Cubs?
  20. I'll be going to the Sat-Sun games of that series. I can't believe I spent $18 for a standing room only ticket. Freaking Cardinals peice of sh.....
  21. I predict that Scott McClain goes yard twice. :lol:
  22. FYI, MLB.TV comes included with all WBC games. Dan
  23. I've always wondered if I could put an address from a foreign country in my settings and get no blackouts. I live in blackout areas for St. Louis and Houston which makes it impossible for me to see 5-8 games a year (depending what's on locally/ESPN).
  24. I got some major mid-term assignments for school coming up. I'll try to put some more on later. I'll definitely get Sammy's 61st and 62nd.
