Peter Gammons joined the team. Now they have Bob Costas, Harold Reynolds, Al Leiter, Barry Larkins, Sean "Worst Fantasy Decision Ever for ncstatetke" Casey, Billy Ripken, Mitch Williams, et al

Saturday Night and Thursday Night Baseball will visit every city in the majors this year

best of all will be "The Club" a reality show centered around the White Sox season. begins airing in July and will be full of bleeps

Any sports show that has Bob Costas on it has my approval. Gammons is an ugly, UNC fucker, but he's good at his job and I like hearing what he has to say. I wish he was still with ESPN.

Its basically drinking every time his voice cracks, he mentions Sac Flies, or Kruk cuts him off

There are other things too, but thats the gist of it

Kurkijan has been on his game. He was talking about how Polanco has to wear a cup now and then used "short and stumpy" in that same sentence. And also was on the verge of tears for calling the Cubs manager "Dusty Baker."

Whoa... wait a second.

I'm getting Extra Innings so I can see the Sox games, but Bob Costas doing MLB Network games almost makes me not want to watch NESN. I wish that Time Warner would stop being assholes and just let their customers buy NESN.

I'm surprised you're just now realizing this

Harold Reynolds alone is worth making the switch

is NESN going to be part of the digital package or will you have to purchase it like HBO, Showtime, etc..?

I think it's part of the $3/month sports tier (YES, B10, etc)

NESN and YES are worthless unless you like watching all the pre and post game stuff

Don't be fooled into thinking you get any actual live games on them

All out of town games are exclusive to Extra Innings or MLB.tv

The channel will go black when the game starts and pick back up when it ends

He means out of market -- you won't see any games on NESN

(I didn't know this until now)

Has nothing to do with home or away

You won't be able to see any games on that channel

By "out of town", I meant "out of market", so if you live in NC, you have to get one of the aforementioned packages to see any games that aren't nationally televised

That is an exceptional deal to get the Yes, NESN, and Big X networks for $3 a month. I believe our football game with ECU in 2010 is on one of those random sports channels as it was a couple years ago. Too bad the Big X is the only one of those channels that is in HD with TWC.

This channel fucking delivers on a nightly basis. HR, Gammons, and Plesac (power pack) are getting it done.

Just flipped over and Bob Costas is interviewing Bob Feller on Studio 42. I was stunned that Bob Feller's still around.

^Feller started playing when he was like 16.

NBC needs to get the rights to baseball back so Costas can announce the World Series again.

Hazel Mae does like every single show on the network I think... I still think it's funny that she "left" NESN because of the rumors that she was banging some of the married players...

Heidi Watney was a huge step up from Tina Cervasio for NESN.
