    these games are near-unwatchable, and it has nothing to do with it being spring training
    the pitcher/hitter clock is annoying as fuck
    fuck you manfred

    It's fucking maddening... do you remember in Apocalypse Now when Chef got off the PBR and went ashore into the jungle to get some mangoes for a recipe ? Then while he was looking, a tiger came at him and when he got back aboard he freaked totally out, screamed, and started taking off his clothes ? " A fucking tiger ??!!"
    I envision some pitcher doing that before the season ends with this red clock shit counting down...
    Absolutely...never get off the fucking boat...

    well i wasn't planning on spending much time or money at the ravine this year anyway but i'd guess concession prices will have to go up to compensate
    as far as watching it on tv i'm cool w it i think

    didn't take it that way at all
    business wise there is a downside to cutting 30% of the time off a game but as a fan of watching it on tv i don't have a problem so far
    tomorrow will be the first chance i get to really sit down and watch a game but i did watch a couple of innings of replay last night and it seemed reasonable idk

    I think coke will make a resurgence, a la Steve Howe, to facilitate the sped up format.

    he was moving second to third on a dp ball to third and when he dipped inside to avoid the throw
    his next step looked like he rolled his foot to the outside and immediately left his feet and tumbled
    came up holding his knee and had to be helped into the golf cart
    kid was visibly upset and despondent
