So, I'm going to be in Clearwater and have a free day March 11th. Why the hell do the Phils play 2 different games? Which one would you recommend seeing? Tigers or Yanks?

Prince & the Tiggers.

That's the one at Bright house field. I might do that one since its home unless beer is cheaper at Steinbrenner Doubt it though since it's the Yankees...

Plus, Brighthouse is much, much, much better than Steinbrenner field. Go to Lenny's for breakfast.

Signing up for this Broad Street Run is a GOD DAMN pain in the ass. Like, PJ tickets pain in the ass.

MLB TV question.

I'm sure the answer is "you're fucked", but...

Long time DirecTv subscriber, so no Comcast Philly. Extra Innings I'm sure will "block out" all Phils games since I'm in the Phils home team market (Harrisburg). Is there a way to get around this thru MLBTV?

I used to go out and catch a couple games a week, but now the kids are getting older.

I will not pay Comcast, so that's not an answer.

MLB blackout rules suck, I'm not sure how they black out something I'd pay for. To me MLBTV / Extra Innings are like pay-per-view. Let me watch and dish out my $ to those that needed it.

Guess that was more a rant than a question anyway, anyone have MLBTV?

Yeah, if you're in Philly's market you're not getting that stuff - maybe you could get the opposing team's feed. You do know that paying for mlb.tv + DirectTV will probably come to the same as just getting FiOS? Get Verizon if you don't want Comcast.

For mlb.tv there is a way to mask your IP address to make it look like you are not in the local market. I am not sure how to do it but know people that have. I'll ask.

Thanks, this is what I was thinking but wasn't exactly sure all that was needed.

Fios would be a possibility if they had Sunday Ticket.

I don't understand why they use major league teams because some kids don't want to be Mets, Barves, Yankees or yes, even Phillies. Before I moved, my son was in a league and they had most of the minor league teams available and you had your choice of teams. Of course, I chose the Durham Bulls.

Ugh. I know this all too well. My mom, who obviously didn't get it(or just liked fucking with me, which is highly probable), bought me a Mets uniform as a kid just because I liked baseball and it was on sale.

I can do ya one better. My mom once bought me a CREED t-shirt because she "heard they sounded like Pearl Jam" and figured I'd liked them because of that. I used it as a rag when I dusted my room.

yeah i think i was the mets one year. for some reason our shirts were maroon.

my last year in little league i was on the phillies and our coach went out and bought these authentic looking jerseys for us. powder blue roadies with the old school "P" and everything. authentic looking hat instead of mesh. numbers were stiched. all the other teams just had shirts. we looked fucking bad ass.

my dad made a video yearbook for that team with slow motion highlights and our coach doing the voiceover with all of our stats and stuff.....no mention of war though
