I was living in SE Wisconsin when I first listened to the Cubs on radio. I was only 10 or 11, but often after being sent to bed, I'd listen to the Cub's night games on WLS on a little pocket AM radio under the covers at real low volume so my parents wouldn't hear it. Didn't care much about...
Bob Costas was the announcer. He knows his history, but a little less talk during the game would be greatly appreciated. Almost turned off the game it was so annoying. It totally robs the enjoyment of it.
Game 2, watching MLB network. Why won't the announcers shut the fuck up just for 5 or 6 seconds? It's non stop. Plus, a cutaway during a homerun for run 5 Cubs?! Why are you showing a side interview during a pitch? WTF? Come on!! This is as bad as trying to watch fights on HBO...
I didn't indicate the moderator's political affiliation or that it mattered. That said, the moderator is doing a pretty good job of staying out of the way, IMO.
Post edit: Except for the birther shit. Pointless to bring up.

Interesting idea. Which one would have the final say on Supreme Court nominees (under the assumption there would be an equal number of ex-presidents from both sides)?
This is a absolutely priceless.:D Just some weeks ago I tried to have a reasonable discussion with you and you kept referring to me as "my kind". You failed to describe what you meant by that definition. Now you cry to the arbiter of free speech. Whatever country you live in, please stay there...
I still enjoy driving a 5 speed manual, rear wheel drive. I have mid 90's truck, and haven't replaced it because so few trucks are available in the US with manual transmissions anymore.
I remember another advantage. Back in the 70's, I rode around with a pal in an old beater (think it was...
Nice! I trust you don't have to deal with cell tower strobes. They've wrecked my night sky. Even fought to get the lights turned red, and lost. Didn't buy a nice telescope because of that (and my country neighbors who feel the need to light up the night sky after they leave the...
I was just today wondering why you hadn't posted something about Juno, and then this thread came to the top (haven't been to ET for a while. I just watched the trailer earlier today). As someone who has spent time in meteorology (Aerographer's mate, USN), I look forward to learning more...
Apparently he was too consumed by hate to determine the race(s) of those he was shooting other than the fact that they were in blue. The man from the article below was Mexican-American, and worse yet, a fellow vet. He served in Iraq, his killer served in Afghanistan...
