The sad thing is, the space on Atlantic Avenue that the Dodgers owner wanted to build a new stadium at, is the same place where the Brooklyn Nets stadium is going to be built. |
how funny is it that the nets were sold because they couldn't get an arena built in NJ, and the new Newark arena is going to be done before they even start building the arena in BK. |

The big pitchers duel was yesterday, DiceK vs. Sabathia. |
Yeah, that game was a gem. Finally a quality start from Dice-K, he had really been struggling.
Jerz - mlb.tv is really worth it. I picked up the premium package after the break and it is sahweet. |

it does have its draw backs though...for instance there is a blackout on all saturday daytime Yankee games...Fox have the rights to these games although they dont transmit them..... |

yeah...that's stupid....why don't they just use the fox tv feed? Or for each local area blackout, they can use the local tv feeds (and build in the subscriber fees) that way they aren't screwing the local networks of their advertising or other fees. |

Its the same with MLB Extra innings...They will not show daytime games on a Saturday...What makes me mad though is that fox choose to transmit paid programming rather than the games.... |

we got the whole package and can't watch blacked out games on either..its nothing to do with the provider,,it's because fox will not play ball and sell the rights to games that they have no intention of showing... |

| we're up 14-9 and tito feels that okajima needs to come in to pitch the 8th. Here's hoping he brings papelbon on to pitch the ninth. |

Well, ya can't win em all and by taking 3/4 from Cleveland we've helped make the wild card race a lot closer for you guys.
Further, having watched Cleveland for 4 straight days I can safely say that they're not that great. Carmona & CC are both very solid but with the exception of Byrd they really don't have anyone else who can pitch. Westbrook sucks and Lee has given up like 26 runs in his past 4 starts. Just abysmal numbers. Plus, and nobody told me this, it looks as if Haffner has forgotten how to hit. |

Additionally, I just have a feeling that the M's and the Indians are going to fade. The indians staff is too weak, and the M's are mediocre on both offense and pitching. |
