There is no FSN chicago, only CSN chicago now, but its not on that channel anyway. If it was it would be blacked out anyway, but its on one of Fox's alternate channels. I wonder if there is a way to pirate these games lol Get direct TV, and ask an out-of-state friend or relative to let you use their address for billing. Then another area's games will be blacked out and not your own. LOL, I could do that I guess. I actually get billed online anyway. I had to hassle with them for a while to not have to have a phone line.

anyone else wish he was going to platoon with Jones?

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?

they could drop the second round of pool play or both rounds. baseball isn't really meant to be played in one game series.

Uh, there is no such thing as FSN Chicago anymore. uh, it doesn't really matter to me what its called.

FSN Chicago is blacked out here (until EI starts).

Those same injuries could happen in ST games.

Ohka left the FB up & Murton took advantage. Also on the Aram HR, Ohka hung a pitch right down the middle. Aram will kill that pitch everytime. ARam looks like he's playing slowpitch softball when he hits those hangers out. Man, I wish the game was on!

Yes, that was a high pitch too. Took it the other way with authority. If he maintains that approach, I think he will be highly successful and possibly develop a little more power.

I love the opposite field power from Murton.

The article gave plenty of other reasons why the scoring has been down. I guess I just don't understand your argument. This is the way major conference tournaments have been for as long as I can remember. Every major conference tournament plays their games on consecutive days. That doesn't mean all of them are ugly. This year the games haven't been pretty but there are a variety of reasons for that. when games are more physical, as they are in the Big Ten, more time is needed to recover. If you watch the games, the teams are clearly fatigued and that is a big part of the ugliness.

There should be a one in one out rule for conferences who give their tourney winner a free pass.

this is what I am talking about - playing every day ruins the competition. http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/columns/story?columnist=forde_pat&id=2364742

Does anyone else think the tourney set-up could be better? It would be nice to vary up the groups a little instead of keeping the same teams together right through to the final. Instead the US could play Mexico three times in the tourney.

635 ks in 661 innings is a strikeout pitcher. 216 in 203 IP last year. Zambrano for the record has 655 in 733 IP. both strike guys out.

it'll be a snowy day in pasadena when UCLA wins the Pac-10 tourney! Hopefully it'll be warmer next weekend - I'm not flying all the way to San Diego to be cold! Not that its really that far but with a one year old . . .

Huh? Seems to me he does strike out a lot of guys!

nice!

Why would you expect better efforts? That would imply they weren't really trying prior to this year. Well, I certainly don't believe they were because they are pretty incompetent if that has been the case, which certainly cannot be ruled out. welcoem to the forum - unfortunately I think that your incompetence conclusion is the correct one.

walker would cost the cubs 3 runs versus hairston or perez at 2b per BP. Neifi's numbers don't represent a meaningful sample size though.

This second weekend of March is being dominated by a storm whose chilly magnitude is more reminiscent of January, squeezing out heavy mountain snow (at relatively low elevations given the time of year) and thundershowers with hail. Its impact has been nothing short of amazing. Over an inch of snow fell in the hills northeast of Malibu, Calif. Two feet of snow has fallen at Big Bear Lake, northeast of Los Angeles. Whiteout conditions were reported below Cajon Pass on I-5 and I-215. Snow covered I-10 just west of Palm Springs, Calif. The San Diego metro area also took a hard hit. Pea-size hail up an inch deep accumulated near Carlsbad Saturday afternoon thanks to a thunderstorm. A flood-control channel was overtopped along I-8 in the east San Diego metro. Heavy snow shut down I-8 in the San Diego County mountains. This same sledgehammer storm also put an abrupt end to the record dry streak in Phoenix, Ariz. It had been dry (not even a trace of rain) the past 143 days at Sky Harbor Airport. The last rain was recorded on October 18. As of midday Saturday, around ¾ of an inch had fallen, and another ½ to 1 inch of rain could fall through early Sunday. Due to all the rain, afternoon temperatures lingered in the middle 40s in the valley, an average high more reminiscent of, say, Detroit this time of year. The first heavy snowfall of this parched winter season will continue to hammer the Mogollon Rim of Arizona through at least the first half of Sunday. Heavy snow warnings continue there. By the end of this event, Flagstaff could have 1-2 feet of new snow. This is impressive considering they had a paltry 2” of snow for the season before this storm. Significant snow will also blanket the rest of the Four Corners, namely southern Utah, southern Colorado, and northern New Mexico.

The system has been getting bumped later and later. Just yesterday, it was going to be the 16th and 17th. You get some thunder this weekend? I saw SD has a severe t-storm warning today. The whole set-up looks like a potentially large event for us but they aren't predicting more than a couple inches - of course, it was just snow showers 6 hours ago. where is truffle when you need him? hopefully it doesn't rain at all in SoCal next weekend. Yeah - and we got hail, sleet and the non-accumulating snow with one thunderstorm last night (we even lost power for some time). We were under a warning at some point last night too. There really isn't much moisture for this system to work with. WBC aside, we could use the rain. any moisture that falls here comes from the gulf of mexico so we really need to energy from the storm - the moisture is long gone by the time it gets here anyway. I would hate to drive in LA in that kind of weather! Well, I hate to drive in LA anyway. Go Bears!

Bummer Didn't a certain writer say Hendry would almost definitely be back?
