Hey!
You got something inside <" and “>” to show up! Usually when you do that, it gets interpreted as an HTML tag that is not recognized and it is ignored. Looks like the HTML parser is smart enough to know that commas (since you have “clap,clap” in the tag) are not legal in tag names so it knows its not a tag.
Its much harder to get <clap> to show up.

Anyone else notice that MLB TV online is now smarter than they used to be as far as blackout restrictions go. They used to use your billing address to determine your location. Now they figure out your location prior to you logging in. Probably using the location of your ISP.
It doesn’t matter to me that much in California, but I imaging its probably pissing some people off in the Dallas area.

Anyone watch 30 Rock?
Like how Jack thinks Kenneth the idiot page is a secret mastermind. Everyone will think Wash just plays dumb and is actually the most brilliant tactician since John McGraw.
Keith Law: (1:45 PM ET ) I think Michael Young should shut his mouth and move to third base.
Other managers will start using their bullpens like Wash
Or batting the 25th man cleanup.
This could revolutionize baseball.

Damn....even I know that one....
The Rangers traded Gerald Laird to the Phillies for him. Then Laird was cut and re-signed with us last spring.
It was a steal.

They signed him as an NRI before the 2007 season
He had a good spring, but the Rangers decided to go with Matt Kata for the opening day roster and Byrd went to AAA. He got called up in May and has been awesome ever since.
By 2028, Mark Teixeira will be in the HOF.
-The Outlaw
Actually
He wasn’t an NRI. Byrd was signed to a major league deal, and was put on waivers, cleared waivers, and accepted an oturight assignment to AAA when Wash decided he wanted JHJ and Kata instead.

So we tried to give away Byrd and Cruz and successfully gave away Armando?

all i said was that it wasn't one of the truly terrible plays
where there is no chance at all to get the runner and you throw it away. we would have said good play if it was a decent throw.
obviously it could have been approached better.

To go or not to go
my next door neighbor is from Detroit. He asked me last night to drive to Detroit with him tonight (13 hour drive) to go to the game tomorrow. We would leave here at 7 pm get to Detroit around 8 am….catch a couple hours sleep before the game….leave after the game and get back home about 7 am Sunday in time for Easter.
He’s paying for gas and his mother in law is getting the tickets.
Go or no go?

I remember in 2000 ESPN talking about the future Cy Young races between Kris Benson and Rick Ankiel.
Like it was some sort of fact.
For that reason, Benson probably gets more of a bad rap than he deserves
His career hasn’t been spectacular, but he hasn’t exactly been Brien Taylor or Matt Anderson, either.
Being the #1 overall pick is a tough load to bear, everyone expects you to be a guaranteed Hall of Famer.
