    Im thinking about it.

    I am without cable right now, so I'm gonna need to find a source to catch the games.

    I can definitely afford it.. at 14.95 a month its definitely cheaper than getting cable.. seeing as all im gonna do with Cable is to just watch baseball and ESPN.

    So i'll probably end up getting it.. but theres delay time like with all internet broadcast, so I dunno how efficient it'll make for gameday threads.

    And four weeks later nobody even speaks about it.

    Kobe: I don't think there is any delay time at all. It's a matter of few seconds and that's basically it. It's not biggie. It will be more than efficient for gameday threads. When I did the game threads with the Twins board this year, it worked very well.

    Glad you like it, Kobe. I think it has become a hit for lot of baseball fans.

    Now I hope the NBA can start creating that same technology like MLB has done especially when you look at the fact that the NBA has started to become big in overseas with their players playing in that league.

    one thing so far though is that during the stream it keeps stopping, so I have to restart it..

    could be a problem with m internet, or problem with a re-run.. who knows.

    Actually, Kobe. It's only a problem for one night like tonight for example, but after that, it does not interrupt. If you watch today's game tommorow or Wednesday, it won't interrupt.

    It won't skip when it's live.

    BTW, I hope you can stomach Rockies color analyst George Frazier. This guy never shuts up. He talks a nanosecond. I rarely hear the PBP guy because Frazier can't shut up.

    haha, I'm really not paying too much attention about that right now. The commentary isn't too bad, considering I'm used to listening to Jerry Coleman and Ted Leitner.

    Leitner is as annoying as they come, and while Coleman is a legend, old age has definitely caught up to him.

    Frazier has gotta be the worse color analyst along with White Sox color analyst Darrin Jackson who might be worse than Frazier.

    Did you enjoy listening to Hacksaw (Lee Hamilton) when he used to do the Chargers games on XTRA Sports? I believe Leiner is the Chargers PBP guy and Hacksaw is mad at Ted for taking the job behind his back.
