That is bad. Boy the Angles have had some bad stuff happen to them off-field over the years.

Don't know who your ump was, but Charlie Merriweather has to be the worst ball/strike ump in baseball now, he's brutal.

I know just the thing to cure the Yankees, trade Seattle for Carlos Silva. Believe me, he's a great pitcher.....

I agree with you completely on this one Dan. I was very disappointed at what I saw this morning on MLB Network. I just want highlights as I'm getting ready to start the day, the look-ins to other games were lame and not interesting. If that's what they do all night long, I not going be tuning in all that often. Just do a good one hour highlight show, put that on a loop for the 6a.m. -12noon time slot, and I would be happy. Boy, I still can't believe that Mariner game from last night, but that's the great thing about baseball, no running out the clock.

And the lead highlight was the Mariner loss.....

OH MY GOSH!!! The Mariners absolutely, totally, completely, screwed it up so bad and lost the game. It's way too early to go through a loss like that. I can't even describe it, but I'll put it this way: Bottom of the 9th, Ms ahead 5-3, two outs, count is 3-2, no one on base --- and they lose the game 6-5. I can't believe what I just saw. Brandon Morrow looked like total crap.

Goodspeak can't be happy right now: Tim Lincecum lasted only three innings and look as good as CC looked yesterday. He really needs to work on holding runners on base, the Brewers ran wild on him.

Hey, nice game by the Mariners tonight, Felix Hernandez was lights out. Mariners have the best record in baseball now... And Griffey homers! He's got just a bit o' paunch compared to photos from too many years ago when he was last in a Mariner's uniform. The sight of him in that uni makes me feel younger so I like it! I love how spring fever can throw out all rationality. I mean with Angels elderly OF and injuries to their pitching staff, and the Rangers always have terrible pitching, and maybe injuries will hit the A's hard, so the M's with their improved defense, and Jr. helping to create better dugout chemistry by deflecting the bad feelings about Ichiro, maybe... Yes, sentence structure goes out the window too! I'm going to enjoy first place while it lasts, and sure love having baseball back! Griffey deserves one of these:

My guess is that it will be a split decision (especially on the SH board!) on whether they actually sound better, but they will sound different than what we have now. If your frame of reference is the CDs (as it is for me), I really don't think there is any benefit to getting the remasters. It will just mess with your head. The only Beatles I've heard on LP was Sgt. Pepper's. I'm happy with the sound on the CDs and that's what I listened to all through college, etc. Not saying that this project is an abomination or anything, I just don't see any value for me. I do seriously wonder if Apple is misjudging things though -- I think the target audience here is in their late 50s to 60s, and this group is really starting to wind down its CD buying. No not us on the board or SH Board but we are such outliers it is a little scary. And truly the next generation or two below me (Z?) isn't going to buy anything at all. It will be all torrents all the time. We'll see how well that works out. I guess the major question would be: Will they sound better than the Ebbetts? Though I think even these are overrated... I take it you're aware that the Ebbetts are bootlegs? Just curious Yeah, but it's like The Basement Tapes, if you're looking for the full story, sometimes you have to boot it...

They will. The current versions suck. Now, this is something I have wondered about for years. Maybe I'm just too used to the sound of the present cds, but I find nothing wrong with the current cds. I don't want to get all Hoffmanny on everyone, but will the new mastering sound really better than the old one?

Could you post a waveform for me? And, dude, fill out your profile! Seriously, I'm going to wait on this one and see what the reactions are to the sound. I happen to like the sound of the present cds, and I'm not too sure if I really want crystal clear Beatles music.

Ouch! That pretty much kills the Spurs chances this year. The Spurs really looked slow against the Cav's Sunday, just out classed, couldn't stay with them if their lives depended on it. Win the first round of the play-offs, out the second round.

Hey, nice game by the Mariners tonight, Felix Hernandez was lights out. Mariners have the best record in baseball now...

How pathetic! I'm actually looking forward to watching a Mariner game. *Sigh* Wish I was back in Washington and not stuck here in Los Angeles.

Watching baseball with some Pacifico Clara Beer

Well, he's a Cub fan though....

CC Sabathia does not look good, in fact, he looks out right bad today. I really don't think CC will be winning 20 games this year.

Still wondering how Howard could take a 3-2 fastball, right down the middle. How can you look for anything else but a fastball in that situation?

Speaking of Kruk, did I hear right? He has Cleveland going to the World Series against the Mets? I don't see how in the world that's going to happen at all.

Great to watching a real game again, and does Mayers look bad, Holy Cow, three homers in five batters. I noticed that the Chicago/KC game is already canceled.

Season officially opens tonight. For some reason, I looking forward to the season, seems to be a lot of interesting stories and teams. So, as the man said: Play Ball!

Thankfully, a Big East team bites the dust, do I ever hate that conference! UConn just got out played today. Second game is a matter of who I hate more, Big East vs. UNC -- I think I hate UNC way more than Villanova.

I'd be interested in this also. Some of the boots I've heard of QMS have been pretty scruffy, to say the least. If these are good quality, I'm in.

In other Rangers news: Andruw Jones makes the final spot on the Rangers. What a free-fall this guy has had.
