I kind of wish he hadn't shaved it because now I'm curious how it would've looked. Big shaggy beards can be cool on the right people.

So anyone know if they're going to have the game on MLB.tv tomorrow? I noticed the only 3:05 game they have with a 400K link is SF @ CLE. Last year I think they only covered a couple ST games a day if I remember correctly.

I don't think it's on anything, unless the Dodgers are broadcasting it.

Radio only from the Dodgers end. Not sure which station just know some of the locals were discussing it on my Dodgers board.

[Butcher]

Is it weird that while I'm fully aware that the game is less than meaningless, that starters will probably see very little playing time, and I will have completely forgotten about this game by the time April rolls around...that I desperately want the Cubs to kick the living shit out of the Dodgers?

What am I missing? When I go to the multimedia listings for mlb.com, this is what I see for tomorrow:


Doesn't that show WGN?

Yes it does, under the "Audio" column.

[Clapp]

<!--quoteo-->QUOTE <!--quotec-->Piniella was discussing his old off-season jobs, such as selling municipal bonds and Chris Evert sportswear when he played for the Yankees. He then disclosed he'd taken classes at a local college in Tampa before running into a roadblock.

"I flunked square-dancing, and then I said, 'To heck with it,' " he said.

How does one flunk square-dancing?

"I didn't show up for the final," he said. "I studied too hard for the biology exam. I did OK in the exam, but I didn't get to the square-dancing part afterward. … They shouldn't have [flunked me]. They should have given me a D. So you're not going to see me doing the hoedowns at the ballpark."<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->

Yes, but we were talking about a video stream. But audio is better than nothing. If they're going to cover it the way they did last year, we should be able to get audio for a lot of the Cubs ST games, and then video for random games here and there.

Hey Kabes.....Derosa just hit a 3-run HR in ST vs the Giants. Nice way to start his Indian season. What killed me is how much the announcers discussed his "low maintenance" swing after the jack. Thought you'd like that.
