QUOTE(aboz56 @ Feb 21, 2007 -> 11:15 AM) How do you connect the computer to the TV? Is there another way to do it besides using the Slingbox? S-Video. You can get a 12 foot cord for around 20 bucks. There's also wireless connectors that you can use but most of them will run you upwards of $120.

QUOTE(RME JICO @ Feb 21, 2007 -> 10:28 AM) Sweet. So they still have the 05 games available? Yep, Spring Training through the World Series for both '05 and '06.

QUOTE(RME JICO @ Feb 21, 2007 -> 07:44 AM) Kalapse, How is the video quality on premium? Since there's nothing for 2007 yet all the video for '05 and '06 is still in 350K. So it's not bad on my laptop screen but pretty damn good on my tv. The 700K demo looks awesome though, it's basically television quality.

Ugh, this season has the potential to be even more maddening than last year. Just kill me now so I won't have to suffer through the insanity.

I'm pretty sure that's Masset not Haeger.

QUOTE(IlliniKrush @ Feb 20, 2007 -> 06:07 PM) Haren, and it's not even close ^^^ You shouldn't have to think about this one for more than a second.

QUOTE(santo=dorf @ Feb 20, 2007 -> 04:25 PM) So they should change their name to the fighting leprechauns so people don't think they are stereotyping irish people. Cheif Illiniwek is supposedly doing an actual tribal dance. He's not shooting arrows at cowboys, dealing blackjack or smoking a peacepipe. Since Illiniwek is based on a really tribe, what if the Cheif change his name? He would then be a fictional character like the leprechaun. You could probably sneak in a math/physics lesson in their by renaming him Cheif Soh Cah Toa. (Anybody else learn that?) ugh Sin, Cosine, Tangent. It's like High School all over again!

QUOTE(redandwhite @ Feb 20, 2007 -> 08:42 PM) Wow - MLB TV Premium looks much improved since I first bought it two years ago, and with the Extra Innings pass not available to me, it makes too much sense. Good stuff. I bought my MLB.tv Permium account yesterday and it's incredible. I've already gone back and watched a few of Andy Sisco's outings from 2005 and a few of Masset and Aardsma's from '06. I also fell asleep watching some random Marlins/Dodger game last night. Mosaic looks ridiculously cool, can't wait until April 2nd so I can download that too.

Awesome.

I signed up for an MLB.tv Premium Account today, I've been watching some games from last season and I must say I forgot just how good this team was in the first half of last season even when the starting pitching wasn't doing jack s***. I'm really not all that worried about 2007.

I don't need to explain myself to you people. I'm going to need this later.

QUOTE(Flash Tizzle @ Feb 19, 2007 -> 08:27 PM) What, you didn't think Homer attached to a wrecking ball and bouncing between a large rock and a bar named "Hard Place" was funny?! That and another one with homer spanking a pig in his bedroom or some s***, I only saw a small portion, anymore and I could have had permanent brain damage.

QUOTE(Milkman delivers @ Feb 19, 2007 -> 07:27 PM) I thought I heard that it was actually written a long time ago? If so, it actually may be good. From what I've seen of the trailers and written previews thus far it sounds like recent Simpsons humor to me. We can only hope though, if it was written in the 90's it should be pretty good. I'm not holding my breath though.

I just laugh when I see ads for the Simpsons movie. I can't bare to watch a free 20 minute episode why the hell would I pay to see a 90 minute episode? They should have made it 10 years ago like they talked about originally.

QUOTE(Flash Tizzle @ Feb 19, 2007 -> 05:51 PM) Any pictures of Danks, Floyd, or Gonzalez floating around? Nothing yet. I'm not so sure you really want to see Floyd though.

QUOTE(TitoMB345 @ Feb 19, 2007 -> 02:48 PM) Bobby Jenks looks "great" in this pic: http://chicagosports.chicagotribune.com/sp...nes&index=6 Seriously encouraging. I know they said he lost about 20-25 pounds, but that proves it to me. He looks better/ That is not Jenks, seriously I wonder if the people who write these captions have ever seen any of these players before. This is the second time I've seen that exact picture with an incorrect caption. I'm pretty damn sure that bulbous figure is Ryan Bukvich.

Yeah but what's Bobby hitting on the gun right now, if he's throwing like he was for a good portion of last season, he might just be one of the softer tossers in the pen this year.

QUOTE(Tony82087 @ Feb 19, 2007 -> 10:20 AM) I question how productive Erstad can be on the field, but I think it's very possible he brings something to the clubhouse that could have been missing last season. Alright, thats my one "grinder" post for the year. All done. HE'S LIKE ROWAND ONLY OLD!!!!1111 I probably won't like the amount of playing time he gets this year or his production (or lack there of) but it's nearly impossible to dislike him as a person.

QUOTE(GoSox05 @ Feb 19, 2007 -> 09:03 AM) why is everyone worried about free-agency for next year? Why dont we play baseball this year and worry about that stuff next winter. Because there's no reason not to. When the general manager is already making statements regarding next season's free agents then I don't see why the fans can't look to a year in advance. This situation is likely going to impact how the 2007 season plays out as well, it's all connected. I guess if you don't want to discuss the situation regarding the pending free agents on the roster you don't have to but I don't see why no one else should.

Chris Carpenter's not a free agent, he signed an extension though 2011 this past offseason.

Jimmy Kimmel might not be all that funny during monologues and such but the guy knows how to put together a sketch.

QUOTE(SoxFan1 @ Feb 18, 2007 -> 03:51 PM) Yeah, I realized that when I looked at it. The caption said it was Bobby. Then I realized you already posted it... So you're double posting pics and getting the people wrong way to go. I've found that you really can't go by the captions they're almost all wrong. If I had to guess I'd say that's Ryan Bukvich since he's kind of known for being overweight and he's listed at 6'2" 250.

QUOTE(SoxFan1 @ Feb 18, 2007 -> 03:44 PM) AJ & Bobby: That's not Jenks.

Eduardo Sierra: Sean Tracey: Pierz: Nick Masset or Mallet as I'm sure he'll be called by some this year: Bobby Jenks is still fat: Darin Erstad: Stretching Drills:
