what I can tell yall is that it is now pouring here (close enough to Cleveland) and getting very dark outside.

The Disabled List just called ... it was trying to unload Joe Borowski. I offered a bagel but balked at giving up a ham sandwich. It wanted to keep Westbrook.

Another rain delay :(

thanks.

hey, heads up, we don’t use subject lines here at LGT. it’s too confusing when we drink. it’s not the SBN norm, but we’ve adopted it as our style.

welcome!

Whoever’s filling the airtime on WTAM is really getting on my nerves.

by aufrank on May 3, 2008 7:20 PM EDT   0 recs

It’s apparently Schwab—I haven’t listened for quite a while, but I think I used to like this guy. Not so much today.

by aufrank on May 3, 2008 7:27 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

just announced on WTAM that the game is now scheduled to start at 8:20

I’m going to see the Tribe in New York next Thursday. Does anyone know if CC is the projected starter?

hey, we’re going to that game too. If you see 2-3 navy guys in uniform, say hello.

I too will be at that game — in the bleachers, likely on the receiving end of repeated chants if my last experience is any indication

While we are in delay, has anyone with MLB.TV gone back to Silverlight? Have they ironed out the problems yet?

One day I'll get over to watch the Tribe play

by new zealand tribe fan on May 3, 2008 7:45 PM EDT   0 recs

I had to switch to mlbtv…launching it through the website rarely worked for me.

by cclemens31 on May 3, 2008 7:51 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

how do you switch back?

by DaytonDogg on May 3, 2008 9:46 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

to the regular mlb.tv- to clarify

by DaytonDogg on May 3, 2008 9:46 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

Not even sure what Silverlight is, just watching it normally, though.

weather.com is giving ominous results as well. I am growing less optimistic.

Really? It looks like the rain is all east of the city on the radar.

well scattered T-storms, and “few showers” after. So maybe it is getting better.

I should really use the preview button

no biggie, i’m the king of typos, and often even when i use the preview button, but i wanted to make sure that wasn’t a joke i was supposed to be laughing at.

by macasson on May 3, 2008 8:10 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

in fact i did. just one. were at a bar that had a bunch of different spanish beers and i tried about 4. moritz. that one, and can’t remember the others.

by Brick. on May 3, 2008 8:12 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

i’d say i drank about 80% estrella damm over there.

What part of Spain? One of my co-worker’s wife is from Barcelona. He gets to go on Ski vacations in their house in the Pyrenees. In other words, I would love to go to Spain.

Madrid, Barcelona and Girona. was my first time, and i too, love going to spain.

I don’t think I spelled it correctly, but it’s a liqueur that the catalans drink over ice, reddish in color and kinda sweet. I got blasted on it in a local Barca club.

by macasson on May 3, 2008 8:16 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

there’s a beer called something similar. which means it starts with a P i guess.

that then, i did not have.

Cleveland Brown, from a microbrew here in town. Newcastle after that.

what microbrew?

by Brick. on May 3, 2008 8:20 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

The Mountain Sun, in Boulder. They don’t sell it anywhere but their stores, and to go it only comes in Growlers. And despite my many pleas, they won’t brew a Cleveland Indian Pale Ale.
