    I can understand both sides of this argument. Most of the people seem to be angry that the Extra Innings package won't be available for anyone who has their TV piped in by anyone other than DirecTV. This is a valid criticism. In any service industry, if a service is offered for some time and then its availability is restricted, the customers who payed for that service are going to be a bit bothered. However, on the other end of the spectrum, DirecTV payed A LOT to get an exclusive package, and if they're dumb/wise enough to do such a thing, why should the MLB reject it? In all honesty, this deal will probably end up with the EI package being offered by cable, and will allow the MLB channel (whatever they're calling it) to be carried among the cheaper of the cable packages. So in the end, MORE people will be seeing baseball if the MLB can properly wiggle their way through this. Actually a pretty smart business move, IMO.

    Hopefully the process will take place throughout the season, with much of the selection process completed before the season/post-season ends, otherwise, the impending sale could hamper whatever the club plans on doing as far as upgrades/personnel changes. We'll see though, it could drag out.

    If by facilitating our current lavish lifestyles, then yes, they are REALLY sticking it to us. :roll: I love corporations, they've provided us with automobiles, telephones, computers, airplanes, cheap gasoline, cheap food, clean water, and the ability for large amounts of people to gain wage employment. This world would be total shite if it weren't for the advent and proliferation of corporations. They do FAR more measurable good than bad. But since they don't cater to your every whim, and are actually concerned with their own survival, you decide to develop some uninformed prejudice against them.

    And whose fault is that, exactly?

    By rejoicing, we're going the jinx the hell out of this injury and he's going to come back in a week and finish the season with a .092 ERA. Cubs luck.

    the jean shorts are fantastic. And typical.

    This is bad, bad news if the Cubs pull a 180 on Zambrano.

    I wonder how many different posts we can create revolving around the idea of totally freaking out after the 1st game of the season. :roll:

    I'm not worried, this blister problem happens to a lot of pitchers early in their careers I believe.

    Oh those silly Arizona libertarians! :lol: I absolutely love that quote. p.s. There's NOTHING silly about libertarians!

    I'm waiting for the appropriate photoshop collage to accompany this quote.

    I'm in the same boat. I see the Cubs' main competition being the Brewers, not the Cardinals, nor the Astros.

    Well, lets pretend, like you are, that 200 innings isn't the benchmark for "highest level", that's still only two years out of four, which doesn't exactly support your argument. But, in real life, 200 innings is the benchmark for a "highest level" pitcher, and he didn't get there. I'm sorry, I'd love to think that Prior is all that you want him to be, but in the end, all we have is the numbers. And the numbers say that all elite pitchers pitch at least 200 innings per season. You can walk out any stats you want, but in the end, he didn't meet that benchmark. Sorry. I want Mark Prior to kick a**. I want him to dominate the league. I want him to be better than Zambrano. Would I bet my house on it? I'll let you answer that question first. Mark Prior is nothing but the stats he has produced. Period.

    Andy Mazur's replacement, Dave whatshisface, isn't half bad. Or should I say, isn't half as boring as Andy.

    Jones with a two-bagger. Again, there have been a lot of those tonight.
  19. seanimal
    How did I know he was going to throw a curve in that situation? Soriano should have too.
  20. seanimal
    DeRosa with the double-bagger. There's been a lot of those by the cubbies tonight.
  21. seanimal
    First look at Andy Mazur's replacement, Dave somethingoranother. Sounds old.
  22. seanimal
    I think 720 is about 30-45 seconds behind the televised broadcast? Is this usually the case?
  23. seanimal
    I wish this counted!
