Nice time to be a Philly fan...

Now they're interviewing Scott Boras. More fastballs about the business than anything - I'm sure they're not trying to burn bridges so quickly. But really, an impressive thing they have going here.

I'm praying that it doesn't turn into the Harold Reyolds' network. He's a knowledgeable guy, but too much of him can really hurt. I've thoroughly enjoyed watching the WS rerun. I'm waiting to see how the Hot Stove hour pans out, especially the closer ST gets. I’m enjoying the new network. I’m praying that it doesn’t turn into the Harold Reyolds’ network.

I, too, hope they show classic games from the 60s and 70s. Especially the World Series and AllStar games. I guess they are available. If so, then put them on. I, also enjoy the Hot Stove hour. They seem to be having a slight problem fitting everything in, though. Quite a few times they have short circuited a good discussion to "move on". Maybe that's good, though. It might stay fresh that way. So far, so great. I, too, hope they show classic games from the 60s and 70s. Especially the World Series and AllStar games. I guess they are available.

I'll be a National League guy forever. But I did get my six pack as well and picked up two Mets games, the ring ceremony, and some games against the Padres because I have a tie with that organization. Overall, I'm pretty pleased. It's crazy that opening night already sold out though! Geoff, I can’t stand to go to interleague games! I’ll be a National League guy forever.

This is going to kill Baseball Tonight. I love watching the classic games and Bob Costas is awesome. I am looking forward to see what they come up with from day to day.
