MLB Network

[ggMets]

What do baseball fans think of the MLB Network so far. I'm enjoying it for the most part, but think it will be much more worthy of full airtime once spring training starts and the season follows. There have been times when it seems really run out of ideas to fill airtime, like yesterday when they had the batting stance guy on to run through his imitations.

I still can't find it on my cable system.

I hate to be the thread police, but isn't this like the third thread on this in the last two weeks?

Same here. Stupid Allan.

I think it's been very good so far, will get even better with 30 camps in 30 days in spring training and will be great during the season with the nightly show starting at 6 and ending when the last pitch of the night is thrown.

Baseball Tonight will become totally irrelevant (and like every other studio show on ESPN, it's already unwatchable).

But John Kruk isn't as disgusting as he used to be. His wife said so.

So she can see his penis now? Without having to lift anything?

I don't know. He didn't mention that in the commercial.

I started watching something that focused on a single season, and it looked good.

It's nice seeing old games replayed and how much thinner, or less muscular, players were 20 years ago.

Ditto.

I'm not a big baseball fan in the first place and am even less of an MLB fan after the mlb.com bull****. So I refuse to check out this MLB Network. Guarantee I'll never change my tv to that channel. That is all.

Totally irrelevant? Not when ESPN is in every home with cable and MLB Network has to be found on some sports tier you pay extra for.

MLB Network is on most systems' regular package. I do not pay for any sports tier and MLB was added the day it debuted.

So because you get it means "most systems" get it? Where I'm at, only digital or satellite packages get it.

 

[Flying Headbutt]

****, I just finally checked my cable to see if I had it. It's the only channel out of 100 right before or after it that I get. I may never turn my TV off again.

And here I thought I was going to prove spnited at least partially wrong.

Uh, Bruce, if your're not digital next month, you don't get any TV!

I'll watch the MLB nightly show over Baseball Tonight if they establish a set time to run through the entire league's highlights, say at 11 p.m. or whatever.

So another month before I have another channel to pass over. But I'll still play MLB on the original Nintendo. Damn technology.

 

[imjustagirl]

Well, I assumed I'd get it, since Comcast is some sort of minority owner. But yet, I've gone through my guide, I've gone channel by channel, and I've looked on comcast.com at all the tiers in my area. Nothing.

Oh well.

 

[Angola!]

it's definitely not everywhere. i'm gonna call grande about it tomorrow. i'm pretty unhappy i don't get it.
