    Baseball will continue to be bad until they implement a salary cap to force teams to be competitive. Right now, dudes like the Royals have to get lucky to even compete, and even then they fade away because of salary constraints.

      If you are Jerry Babb, preseason is the most awesome thing ever. Perspective is everything.

        yes, preseason sucks
        I must say I'm glad I watched the end of the Colt game last week, however.

              Yes, it's not exciting like football, in which there are television timeouts and coach timeouts and time out between plays....what does 60 minutes of football actually translate into, in terms of the number of minutes the players are actually playing?

                I enjoy the preseason. But it is absurd that teams charge FULL PRICE for games like tonight. Preseason games should be 50% off.

                  No kidding. It is shameful they will charge full price for what is nothing more than an intersquad scrimmage.

                    I love the preseason. Packers can lose to the Browns and nobody gets upset.

                    While the killers in high places
                    Say their prayers out loud
                    But they've summoned, they've summoned up

                      Love it.

                      Yeah, when I was younger I always hated the preseason, but I appreciate the player evaluation side of it now. Trying to figure out who's going to make the team, who might be even better than that a la Shields.

                      I'd like to see So'oto and Lattimore come out firing tonight. I'll be watching that, Alex Green, Sherrod and taking a peek in the secondary. Pack streaming on laptop and Badgers(Braves switch-backs) on the boob.

                        Uhhhh, that would be 60 minutes...

                          60 minutes that takes 3 hours...

                            What stamina. I made it all the way through plus Badgers on radio. Where's my certificate of achievement?
