Does that picture of Avril extend any lower? It seems cut off. Come on MDN, give us the full picture!
You’d think they’d list how many episodes they have rather than the number of shows.After all they don’t list the number of artists.
Baseball? Called ‘Rounders’ here, and it’s a girls game.
MDN Magic Word: british
It inspired my post!
Exactly M.X.N.T.4.1! Apple keeps selling themselves short. They claim 350 TV shows but the actual number of episodes available has to be >10,000 by now.
MLB highlights? that would be the hotdog and beer at the park. Fun to go to, boring as hell to watch.
Do people still pay extraordinarily high amounts to sit outdoors and watch overpaid drug addicts play the children’s game that USED to be America’s sport? I’m glad MLB is on Fox- they deserve each other, The game nobody cares about on the network nobody over the age of 12 with an IQ above that of pond scum watches.
Answer for Question?
Yes, we do still watch baseball. Some of us still enjoy the game. I have a 154 IQ and I still love baseball. I only wish I lived in a city that had a major league franchise. I watch AAA ball in my hometown.
So maybe its you. Because baseball keeps getting record attendances every year.
Excellent… now I can carry MLB video sedatives… uh, games in my pocket!
Baseball and golf the world’s best sleeping aids!
Wake up folks, it’s HOCKEY season!
@Jeff
My IQ is up there too (although I’m dyslexic so take it easy on my grammar) and I love baseball and play in my local league in the UK.
I’d subscribe too what they’re offering….. IF it was available in the UK and in HD.
Geeze I’m a hard one to please.
You can download all major games for free at the moment.
So “Question?”, if you don’t have anything constructive to add in future, save your fingers from RSI and keep your comments firmly inside your own head.
You’re just going to the wrong types of games. Go to a NCAA game, go to a minor level game (A and AA are best). Go see the folks that just love to play the game, play the game. That’s why no one watches the NBA anymore, but the NCAA has never been more popular.
There’s more to baseball than the MLB.
I used to think baseball was boring and simplistic until I tried something truly novel: paying attention. Now baseball is a tremendous joy to me, and to my new British family, who used to think that baseball was just like rounders – but now know better.
As for the relative IQ’s of baseball enthusiasts, I would suggest a viewing of Ken Burns’ documentary, which is chock full dullards like Gerald Early, George Will, Shelby Foote, Studs Terkel, and Stephen Jay Gould.
And Buck O’Neil is a saint.
Well, well, well!!
I contacted MLB and complained that their website was Microsloth Internet Exploder only and shut out the tens of millions (and rapidly growing) Mac user base from watching their online content.
One of the catches I always use is to inform them that Microsoft no longer produces IE for the Macintosh platform, so their content is being shut out of a rather wealthy market share which their site may have a interest in having a presence in.
This is the fifth time I’ve sent such a letter to a company and so far three sites have changed their practices from a Microsoft only solution.
You can have the same success
Just write a intelligent and formal letter and be pleasantly shocked one day.
Remember Microsloth has brainwashed a lot of upper management types, if you don’t speak up, you don’t exist to them.
Any find this on iTunes yet: <<To kick off the 2007 Major League Baseball season, iTunes is offering the “MLB.com 2007 Season Preview Show” as a free download for iTunes customers.>> Thanks.

Remember to take a look at this useful web page

Sleep is a necessary and vital biological function. It is essential to a person’s physical and emotional well being. Studies show that without enough sleep, a person’s ability to perform declines dramatically. It is estimated that 50 percent of the adult population is sleep deprived and these people would benefit from some good information about the many sleep aids that are available..

Everyone knows that Baseball is the most popular game in the United States of America, with over eleven million Americans playing it. The goal of the game is to score as many points as possible. I can talk a lot about her and I know all the rules perfectly, since I played for the school team. If you are new to this, then it will be useful for you to read the article on the site https://sportsecyclopedia.com/tank/why-is-baseball-so-popular-in-the-usa/ where you will find all the information you need to studying this topic. Besides, here they tell why the popularity of baseball is so popular in the USA. Fun with a ball and a bat was already known at the end of the 18th – beginning of the 19th centuries. But baseball as we know it today appeared in 1845. In the early decades of the 20th century, baseball gradually became an integral part of the culture.
