  1. Can anybody who has the 8 disc or the 2 disc blu ray help me out? With the 8 disc blu ray I read some reviews on Amazon that the games are edited poorly and commercial breaks just go from game action to game action, also that the Pat and Ron broadcasts aren't synced up very well, how accurate is this? For the two disc blu ray I know the main feature is the Vince Vaughn documentary, but what other special features are there and what is on the second disc?
  2. Is the NLDS clincher on there? The ad I saw for the 8-disc set just mentioned the WS games plus the pennant clincher. This is what I desperately want to know as well...I've got all the WS games and Game 6 on my DVR, but none of the NLDS games. Honestly, I'd love a documentary package of the entire postseason - I want the pitcher dongs from the NLDS, Addison getting horsefeathers going in the NLCS, I want Javy doing all of the ridiculous Javy stuff in the first two rounds (getting picked off third and stealing home, for example). Someone go do that, please. Just so you and everybody else who is interested knows you can find every playoff game here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCzILJe6oqdeyloHK0a-FlPw All the games are with the commercials edited out. For games 6 and 7 you have to find a way to trick YouTube into thinking you are in another country.
  3. Does anybody know anywhere that still has the blue World Series sweatshirt that the players wore? I don't live in Chicago, so I have been looking everywhere online and can only find the grey one. I'm hoping they are going to make more.
  4. I was able to see the Paw Sox when they were in Buffalo, but unfortunately Prior pitched in the one game I didn't go to. The first game of the series I was able to watch him throw a bullpen session which was pretty cool. I also had him sign my jersey I've had since 2003 and I was able to wish him good luck in his comeback. Would have been nice to see him pitch in a game, but was still pretty cool.
  5. Wandy Rodriguez is going to miss his next scheduled start due to shoulder tendinitis. http://chicago.cubs.mlb.com/news/article.jsp?ymd=20110313&content_id=16931056&notebook_id=16931062&vkey=notebook_hou&c_id=hou
  6. Zambrano, Garza, Marmol, Grabow, Samardzija, Berg, and Marcos Mateo are scheduled to pitch in the game today. I'm not sure what order though.
  7. I read an article about the Red Sox and I'm pretty sure it was Manny and the writer said that according to people around the team it's pretty common for him to leave pay checks on the road in visiting clubhouses.
  8. Too bad after the 2012 season the world is going to end and his contract will expire in a different way.
  9. So this game isn't even on ESPN now? I was excited to see some crappy Cubs baseball all day and instead I get to watch the Yankees and Rays?
  10. How much longer is the home run derby going to be around? With all the big names not wanting to mess up their swing it makes me wonder if the derby will be replaced soon. I want to see players like Pujols, A-Rod, and Ryan Howard not Corey Hart, Nick Swisher, or Chris Young. How would you feel if instead of the home run derby it was replaced by a skills competition like in the NHL? I saw on MLB Network a few days ago they did something like this in I think it was the 89 all star game. They had events like a relay from the wall, and catchers throwing to a target. I think this type of thing would have players more willing to participate, but would fans like it as much as the home run derby?
  11. http://www.chicagobreakingsports.com/2010/06/piniella-may-bench-fukudome-and-soto.html
  12. weather.com has it dry till 3 AMish any first pitch time yet? Approx 30 min according to the Pittsbrgh announcers. btw.... BLACKHAWKS are winning, 1-1. I'm no hockey expert, but don't you need more goals than the other team to be winning? :scratch:
  13. I have nothing really to back this up, but I wouldn't be surprised if Griffey retires soon and if that doesn't happen I think the Mariners will release him. They will approach him and ask if he would like to retire or be released.
  14. According to Wittenmeyer's Twitter Castro's 6 RBI is a ML record for a debut.
  15. How was the crowd when Zambrano came into the game? Also, I read in the game thread about Z's mound antics, did he do any Derek Jeter like fist pumps?
  16. Maybe the Cubs should just take the lead in the 8th every time to just get to Marmol?
  17. Could they show any more commercials? The lead off man is more like here are some clips of what we could show you, but instead you can watch commercials meant for 75 year olds.
  18. my 10 yr old son really enjoys stupid home video shows, which seem to dominate non baseball WGN programming I've been saying for the last two or three years that WGN is one of the most useless channels during the offseason.
  19. I think if I get it I will get the premium for sure. They have a deal where if you try Sports Illustrated you get $10 off.
  20. First of all I've been thinking about getting MLB.TV this year and was wondering what everybody's thoughts were on it. Second is there any way to see what Cubs spring training games will be on it? All I see is that there will be over 150 spring training games, but I don't know how many Cubs games there will be.
  21. I read somewhere that according to Piniella, Soto hit 8 or 9 balls over the fence yesterday.
  22. http://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/baseball/cubs/chi-08-sammy-sosa-nov08,0,7519658.story
  23. Does anybody have any more information on this Wrigley Field tour book they advertised today (10-2) during the game? It looks like it may be cool and it's only $15, but I have no idea what it is.
  24. Why has Fox not been in the lineup at all lately? Scales in LF every day is ridiculous, as nice a story as he is he has no future with the team.
  25. Just as I say all he throws is fastballs he throws two sliders.
