How, exactly? The World Series starts on Wednesday.

Besides, "House" has 'jumped the shark.'

FOX owns the rights to telecast the World Series, no matter who is playing. You aren't going to miss anything, since nothing was going to be shown anyway.

And I'm not seeing a "ratings disaster". There are so many stories here, so many players and people to root for, it's should be a piece of cake to promote.

Baseball Season!
« Reply #470 on: March 31, 2011, 10:52:35 PM »
Once again, it's time to enjoy real sports.

All the real action is going to be on the East Coast. In the AL East, it will come down to Boston and New York, with Tampa Bay and Toronto hanging tough. Poor Baltimore; in any other division they'd be a contender. The Phillies will have to fight off a resurgent Braves team to win the NL East. The Mets will fight to stay out of the basement.

The other divisions are too close to call, except for the AL West where Texas should repeat.

Any thoughts?

The biggest complaint I have about Baseball is that the season is too long. For crying out loud, it begins with snow and ends with ... snow. WTF !? Baseball should start April 15th and end October 15th. I just think there is something very wrong when fans are wearing parkas at the World Series games. They are called the boys of summer, not the boys of freezing weather. Football played at minus 60 farenheit in the frozen wastelands of Green Bay is good drama in  a primeval setting. Baseball where the players wear heavy jackets and can see their breaths is .... ridiculous. My $0.02.

This morning, a local morning show was reporting about today being opening day for the Rays. They said something like "It's a beautiful day for baseball." I said, "Yeah. Too bad they (the Rays) play indoors."

He was only 20 years old when then-manager Tom Lasorda chose him as the Dodgers' opening-day starter in 1981. The pudgy left-hander, born in the remote Mexican town of Etchohuaquila, had moved to the United States less than two years earlier. The rest is history. The only player in MLB history to be the mvp and win the cy young IN THE SAME YEAR.,I give you Fernando Valenzuela, now does the  color com for the Spanish speaking broadcasts for the LA Dodgers. A CLASS ACT.

btw, that opening day , he pitched a 3 hit shut out.

Boo Jays!  Good thing there is 162 games in the season, hopefully my MN Twins will go 160-2! 
Seriously the Jays always beat the hell out of the Twins.  I think it's a mental lapse for them.  Hoping that Sunday's game goes better, but not holding my breath.  Looks like the Twins are gonna have a slow start!
