Re: Dodgers vs. Reds 9/8/13
I think I'm anticipating this game more than any other yet this season.
Don't expect us to win it but certainly didn't predict we'd be this game away from sweeping the Dodgers.
I love that those media bastards chose this game to be the "sacrificial lamb" to get clobbered in the ratings opposite Tony and Eli. Could care less and won't be switching channels even for a second.
It's okay if we don't win this one. But it'd also be an amazingly sweet and wonderful thing if we do. Crap--still more than 5 hours from now.

Re: Dodgers vs. Reds 9/8/13
Big problem for me. I got rid of cable and have been watching Reds games online. But I'm blacked out for this one. I usually just go to a sports bar in that case, but I'm afraid they will have all their TV's on the NFL game.

Re: Dodgers vs. Reds 9/8/13
I think Hamilton's role is perfect right now and I don't expect it to change the remainder of the season...nor do I think it should.
Having said that...I do hope to see him in the line-up and some point.

It's really amazing how the Hamilton thing has worked out. It's one thing to put him on 1B and have him steal 2nd, but he doesn't score hugely important runs unless you get a clutch hit behind him. Statistically speaking we only get clutch hits one out of every 4 tries. Kudos to the Reds for knocking him in so many times this past week

A decent sports bar, especially in the midwest, should have the game on at least one of multiple TVs. The NFL game tonight is Dallas/NY. Here in DC, we have plenty of sports bars that favor football but usually won't go all in (all sets) to football. Also, most cities will have baseball bars, etc, if you look 'em up or ask around. Can't imagine no bar in Dayton would be showing this game. That's even more unimaginable to me than GABP drawing fewer than 30K for a sunny, weekend, September series with the Cards.
The site provided looks funky on my Mac also FWIW.

The only time I have had an issue with the site is with an IPad. I close out the ads carefully. The game isn't listed but it should be on the ESPN feed.

Re: Dodgers vs. Reds 9/8/13
Any reason for the 8pm start? I don't think I've ever seen a Sunday night game start at 8.

So you have never ever heard of "Sunday Night Baseball" on ESPN?

Anyone know if Ludwick is dealing with soreness or something or if this is just Dusty playing for a matchup he likes?

How do you carefully close out ads?

He's 35 and Dusty rested fairly regularly last year too.

I didn't even know it was on ESPN tonight. I just looked at the start time.

Biggest thing going on Sunday night in sports; particularly tonight's game. And, definitely discounting the unenlightened who'll continue to keep Jerry Jones' pockets lined. :beerme:

Yeah I get that just seems to be getting more rest than normal so I was just wondering if he was still not at full strength.

Well with some on that site you actually have to wait them out or else you get a pop up and others have deceptive x signs for closing them. So did the first computer you had have punch cards? Those were fun.

used the punch cards in college --
first one I owned was an Apple 2+ -- paid @ $5,000 dollars for it (very serious money) - green screen -- 2 floppy drives that held 143K each -- no hard drive - dot matrix printer hammering out 80 characters per second
300 baud modem and I was on what became the internet -- but you had to have the phone numbers of the boards you wanted to dial into - all long distance - then came CompuServe and a whole world started to open up.

Wow, and I thought dial up on AOL back in '95 was the early days of internet. :D

Re: Dodgers vs. Reds 9/8/13
So, getting back on topic of The Game, I'll just note another reason for Reds fans to really despise the powers that be in broadcast television.
Now, when you might expect to see a pre-game show, just football highlights on SportsCenter.

Football is king. It's just the way it is. I've been watching football all weekend. The only baseball I've watched is the Reds.

Unless the Reds are on, and it seems like they never are on Sunday night, I'm watching football.

I love baseball with a passion, but if it comes down to an NFL game or a non-Reds MLB game, it's football every time. Especially if I'm watching with friends.

Homer off to a good start in the first

Sure. I like football too. My point is just that times change. The NFL was once more or less irrelevant in the public conscience and, as much as football dominates airwaves and mindshare today, I wouldn't be at all surprised if that changes yet again in the next 50 years.
