The Glade 4.0

Hey, careful, there, you're in danger of losing your FIB-Haters Club card

Not like it's fun to root for the Brewers, though, I can understand.

I know - I get confused myself sometimes, especially when the fact that my hockey team is the Wings is thrown into the mix. I'm pretty steady in my contempt for flatlanders, just the same.

As resident Yankee fan, I approve this Opening Day.

And as a secondary Brave fan, I second it.

Well, I have serious confusion going on too, don't worry. My grandma would always watch the Cubs (Jack Brickhouse!), because we didn't get Milwaukee stations very well, and they didn't have a team anyway until I was ten or so. I ended up liking the Dodgers, for some reason. And the Yankees, 'cause I started watching them on cable shortly before I moved to New York.


Good for me, too - Russell Martin had a good day for the Yankees (I still like him (and the Yankees) even though he's not a Dodger anymore), and the Dodgers won, too.

Today the Indians began the rag-tag death march to the pennant. Injuries, no-names, lack of depth. This is the year Major League comes to a ballpark near you so get your tickets while you can. Come to think of it, I wonder if Charlie "Wild Thing" Sheen is available as a closer after his spoken-word tour?

Much love for the MLB 11 app. I can listen online

Woohoo Jays up by 6 runs in the 5th...great start to the year!

Reportedly, Brian Wilson has shaved his beard in reaction to the Giants losing their opening game. In other news a bunch of drunk Dodgers fans attacked a bunch of drunk Giants fans and one of the Giants fans is in the hospital in serious condition. Dudes, it is just the first game of a long season, chill out.

Yeah, no joke. For $15 I have home and away radio broadcasts, real-time sabermetric game-cast, and same time video highlights for all 30 teams, 162 games a year.

Losingest team in professional sports, no less! Their record before 1980 was... well...

Kyle Drabek looked every bit worth the hype today. I was incredibly impressed with his command. Did you catch the game?

He had a no-no going thru the 6th I believe. Good stuff for a rookie pitcher.

Just the highlights. (We got rid of our cable/satellite last year.) He looked good.

For you, I recommend googling "my p2p". You'll be able to watch any game, in any sport, online for free.

Yeah, but the big S on his chest is getting old, he needs to find a new costume.

You should live in LA and get to hear the reactions. Next thing you know, the Dodger Stadium parking lot will resemble a police state. Not that they shouldn't react somehow, but I have long since stopped taking my kids, or even going without them, to Dodgers-Giants games. They bring out the worst (and worst element) in Dodgers fans. I went with a Giants fan friend of mine about 15 years ago, and seriously felt physically threatened. I sold my Giants game tickets last year, just don't want to deal with it.

I actually hadn't heard any mention of drunkeness, Micheal, although I'm sure it was involved. It's not like Giants fans back down when confronted with the idiots, either. There seems to be a chip on the shoulder that they bring with them, and that will only be worse this year, now that they won the World Series. Not that that at all excuses cold-cocking a guy from behind and putting him in serious condition, or any fighting at all. There's also layers of other causality - NorCal vs. SoCal, ethnic relations, perhaps, and the ever-popular bashing of gays. Because all Giants fans are fags, right? /rolleyes

But someone really does have to stand up and say something, and the Dodgers ownership certainly isn't doing it.
