    Is it time yet? I have not been able to concentrate on studying at all today!

    I HATE that my mlb.tv is gone for the year and (since I don’t have cable) I have to watch the games in public. I was surrounded by Angels fans on Friday, one of them being a Yankees fan rooting for the Angels. It got ugly. :( Well, till the end. :)

    Ooohhh, Jennie, no cable? I’m so sorry to hear that. I don’t know what I’d do without mine, although I only use it for news/weather/baseball.

  6. 2008 October 5 at 6:39 pm

    Jennie you can watch it on that TBS hot corner link I gave the other day. No sound though I don’t think.

    Yikes no cable at all?

    I wish the postseason games were on mlb.tv so I could post on the gameday threads here. It’s too hard to run back and forth from the tv to my computer.

    Angie, I find what works for me is to post here between innings or during pitching changes. The only major drawback to that is getting sucked into a good conversation and losing track of what’s happening on the TV in the next room.

    Oh yeah that’s true. The only problem is if my sister is on the computer, because I can’t shove her off so I can post here. But I’ll try

    And I’m trying to figure out how to record (via a VCR) Amazing Race while bypassing this new fangled converter box. Sucks to be cheap like me!

  11. 2008 October 5 at 6:55 pm

    I’ll just download the full episode tonight when it’s available.

    From bittorrent or is there another place to do that? I tried it once unsuccessfully but, as you may have noticed, I’m technology challenged. I SO wish they would post the episodes on CBS.com like they do for Survivor!

    I wish they hadn’t scheduled the TB/CSW game so close to ours. They’re only in the top of the 7th right now. Looks like we’ll have to watch the beginning of our game on Hot Corner. :::frowns due to lack of sound:::

  16. 2008 October 5 at 7:07 pm

    Hey all. Is it just me, or is it weird hearing Orsillo’s voice, and not on nesn? It’s either this or watch the titanic for the 100th time.

    Thanks Mac! I’m looking forward to it. I love going to MA.

    In honor of Bethie, I channel the Dropkick Murphys:

    I’M SHIPPIN’ UP TO BOSTON WHOA OH OH!

    And why the hell is “Titanic” on instead of baseball? (although it does hold a special place in my heart; my husband and I saw it on our first date)

    HA! Thanks Trish. That will be the title for my blog tomorrow morning!

    Karen, it’s not just you. I heard him on the broadcast Friday and kept thinking “Poor Don. He’s stuck with the damn Rays.”

    The titanic has been on all weekend, opposite baseball.

    Back in a bit — GO SOX!!!

  27. 2008 October 5 at 7:25 pm

    Thank goodness they’re switching to baseball from Titanic. Since as my Dad says, everyone knows what happens in the end.

    BEAT LA!!!

    Wow, Sager looks normal. Maybe afraid he wouldn’t be allowed in Fenway otherwise.
    Ooh Josh, looking so good.

  30. 2008 October 5 at 7:27 pm

    Sager’s outfit is seemingly downplayed for a change.

    So glad to see Beckett on tv!

    I was enjoying Beckett’s interview yesterday, his normal off season self, pissy and blunt.
