you mean
dead, buried, and decomposed?
baseball is a game of outs......pop out, ground out, line out, pitch out, strike out, fly out, and Fox and Bud's favorite black out
It's a day game - HUZZAH!!!!!
I get to actually watch a game for once! Though next week I’ll be in Atlanta so I’ll be on American time for a few days.
Why is my internet choosing NOW to act up though? :(
The day we lose our will to fight - Is the day we lose our Freedom.

I arrive sunday evening
And leave saturday morning. This is just a training class and not sure I’ll be able to make it to a game, but I’ll be back in town early july and will then most likely.

LOL MLB!
So given that I live in San Diego, mlb.tv is blacked out today. But the game is not being broadcast by the local Padres station. So, I’m just SOL.
I mean, COME THE F’ ON. It’s 2009 and we’re still dealing with this BS?

I mean, it's beyond
stupid. If they allowed non-televised games to be seen on mlb.tv, they’d probably get extra revenue from people subscribing for a whole month’s worth of games just to see one game.
Well, it's not like people in San Diego want to see the Padres anyway.
