I think this blog uses wiki-like formatting...
So if you start lines with certain characters you get weird behavior
For example- lines beginning with pound signs turn into ordered lists
- I’m sure those infamous grey boxes are related to this as well, but I’ve never figured out how to get them.

can someone answer this for me
I know that when they started playing night games that they are only allowed a certain amount but does it state when they have to be played?
We have always heard how the players wear out in the heat of the summer, so why have night games in april and may when its 40 outside and not have more in july and august when its hotter?
Is it an agreement with the neighborhood or the city?

Also... summer weekday attendance is always good in afternoons
Because kids are out from school, and families are vacationing, and people take days off of work to enjoy summer.
Hence, weekday evening games in the non-summer months will draw better than say a Tuesday afternoon in April.

I just bought MLB audio for $14.95
Can’t go wrong with that!
Had some buffering issues, but I tweaked the settings and it’s working great.
I also have the slingbox (but it’s not working right now… after I got a new cable box. Gotta fix it when I get back home).

Because
Theriot isn’t going to get any better, while Cedeno still can. Theriot is 4 years older than Cedeno. 4 years ago Theriot was at Class A Dayton.

For those of here in the southernmost corner
of the US…..and chained to the Cox Cable/Padres TV version of tonight’s game…..and stuck with Matt Vasgergian, who was rather subdued tonight, thankfully…his ‘color’ man, former Cub/Padre/Brave/Giant Mark Grant did a very passable Pat Hughes imitation…I usually try to mute anything those two say, but I actually found his take on Hughes….very funny.
Grant, a native Chicagoan (who would KILL to work for the Cubs) admitted he listens to XM baseball, especially when the Cubs are on just to listen to Hughes & Santo, just because he enjoys them so much.
And, before we get too giddy—the Padres haven’t lost a series @ Wrigley since 1999.
Please, three out of four….please…..
