What the fuck is this bullshit? Fox has hundreds of Simpsons episodes in the can, and we’re going into our third half-hour of this puke. For crying out out loud, Married with Children would be better than this lobotomized crap. Fuck, I’d rather watch FOX NEWS!
Jeez Louise, that crappy show Ellen De Generes started on was better than this swill.
I give them credit for letting me stare at Jamie Luner for a half-hour while listening to Mike Shannon and John Rooney on my XM radio.
That said, they couldn’t find a Family Guy episode to throw on? Heck, go root around in the Fox archives and dig up a couple of failed shows to fill time with.
I think FOX know’s no one really likes this show, and no one’s gonna get too invested in a crappy episode if’n they have to cut in and start baseball coverage.
Yes, but how invested have any of us ever been in an episode of Married with Children? (I suppose it depends on what Kelley was wearing.)
I can understand why networks don’t stay with baseball shows or baseball talk these days. Just barely. But the filler is such crap! I wouldn’t mind any decent, even though time-worn, comedy. Wings, Barney Miller, etc.
P.S. One hell of a storm is coming through Denver tonight. If they don’t play tonight, they will likely be delayed again Friday.
I think the rain tomorrow is the reason that they’re trying to get this game in tonight. If tonight’s rained out and they can’t play tomorrow, they’re going to be forced to play Friday, Saturday, Sunday and Monday. That puts the World Series up against Monday Night Football, which they’re loath to do.
The managers, GMs, umps and MLB officials are meeting as we speak to discuss the situation. Fox Sports is apparently in on the discussion as well.
I think tomorrow’s game is fine; this is a slow moving storm. I’d expect Friday to be a problem; perhaps they’ll make it a day game. Day, as in, 8:00 am.
I dunno. The concern all day today has been that tonight might be a rainout and tomorrow almost definitely would be.
The upside to this: I don’t miss a potential clinching game due to work.
The downside to this: my girlfriend is going to kill me, because she won’t watch the game with me and we were supposed to go out Friday night.
Well, that’s fantastic for the Anaheim area. Unfortunately, the St. Louis Cardinals had the unmitigated gall to build Busch Stadium in St. Louis, where it is raining. Pricks. :rolleyes:
If it’s raining in St. Louis today, it’ll be raining here in Lexington by tomorrow.
And Frank, she’s the one that said “if they’re not playing Friday, we can go out.” It’s her idea.
People in the greater Los Angeles area care about professional football? You ran the Raiders, Chargers AND the Rams off.
(And the good folks of Cleveland could say the same thing about you stealing their team as well, since the Rams left Cleveland for L.A. in the first place.)
