Me? I prefer to turn the TV OFF and listen to Charlie and Dave on my front porch. To me, that's the only way to follow a game if you're not actually at the park.<BR/><BR/>(I did actually turn on the TV once last season, during an Orioles game. I wanted to watch them get creamed 30 to 3 by the Rangers. That was...interesting.)Oxheadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08830870013064939436noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28676208.post-78003978352486110232008-02-26T08:52:00.000-05:002008-02-26T08:52:00.000-05:00Paul: Yes, we did ask Charlie about the contract n...Paul: Yes, we did ask Charlie about the contract negotiations.

Spouse and I will not make it to as many games in person this year - 2 reasons: 1) we're expecting a baby in June and 2) Spouse switched jobs to one that doesn't hand out the occasional tickets (alas.) So we'll be really dependent on the radio (we almost always prefer to have the radio on, even when watching games on the tv.., although I do like to hear what Sutton has to say..) <BR/><BR/>We were joking around just the other day that chances are there'll be a game during labor.. so the kid might be born to "bang zoom!" Only partially joking, really.. and in any event once the kid is here, he'll be hearing lots of Charlie and Dave this summer... molding young minds!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28676208.post-22126434177385148032008-02-26T00:19:00.000-05:002008-02-26T00:19:00.000-05:00SBF, did you ask Charlie why it took so long to si...SBF, did you ask Charlie why it took so long to sign him?<BR/><BR/>I also feel like Charlie and Dave could take up two seats somewhere downstairs and call the game. That's the way they did it back in Red Barber's day!<BR/><BR/>By the way, we are all really jealous of your daily routine these days. Don't you have to be back at work reporting on the history of the Clintons' commentary on NAFTA?paulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15683734720896529408noreply@blogger.com
