Normal is Good

This was in my e-mail today. "Important Information Regarding Your MLB.TV Subscription" I was so excited to see it, I nearly threw up. Waiting for SOXball to start is like waiting for a package to arrive. When I was little I loved to "send away" for things in the (snail)mail. I would wait 6-8 weeks with anticipation. And then the day would finally arrive! Today was that day. MLB.TV is cheerfully going to automatically renew my subscription. I'm going to let them. The daffodils are up and the trees are budding new leaves, I knew it was only a matter of time before my life got back to normal. According to MLB.TV that will be "on or about March 1st." Normal is good.

Photo Day!

I searched for a long time before I found a good code to embed this player. So many web sites made it impossible for me to copy it, even tho it was offered. Grrrrr! This embed code is was found @ "The View From 312 Feet". Awesome Sox page, go visit. Tell 'em I said hi. :-)

Was anyone else a little ticked off at the TBS announcers last night who kept saying "The Red Sox might steal this game" They might just steal this one from the Angels"? Sox own the Angels in the playoffs. We never lost against the Angels in the playoffs. It's our win to lose, not to steal. What were those morons thinking? Just because the Angels finished with the better record it makes them the better team? Beg to differ...

And so it begins...

I knew the Red Sox would make it to the playoffs. I knew the Cubs and Angels would be there as well. It was the DEVIL Rays and Dodgers that suprised me. The post season already has a surreal quality to it.

Whatever happens in these playoffs, I'm convinced that we/I will get our/my money's worth. I can confidently state that because, I don't have to pay crappy MLB.TV to watch baseball, anymore this year!!! HooRay! They really suck at something you would think, they would have to be good at. I think it's a law. Tonight starts the first night that I can watch baseball without having to pay for it 3 times. Follow my logic: Baseball should be on ESPN or FOX during the regular season, it's not and I pay for it every month on my cable bill. So, I pay for Internet service to watch it online, only you/I have to pay MLSUCKYB.TV to watch it online. That's three times no matter where you learned math.

** It occurs to me that the Dodgers have a lot of our former Sox
***like I said... I knew they would be there, it just feels strange.
**** Sorry, saw Ghostbusters again, forgot how funny it was.
