Not about cheap, but it's about Arte. Arte and Joe are long time pals and drinking buddies. While Scioscia would head home to Thousand Oaks right after games, Joe would hang out and have a few beers with Arte.

I dont think Joe is going anywhere.

What? Since when can't we approve, or give thumbs up.. to our own posts?

I posted yesterday that there was no way Joe would be fired. 

You're welcome.

As long as cheapskate Arte is in charge, he'll let him go to the end of his contract.

It isn’t about watching tonight’s game.  It’s about do they lose you and your viewership in subsequent games?  

never said they would lose my viewership. just pissed that they decided to make me jump through hoops to watch this one, when I have paid to see "EVERY out of market game"

Try to follow along.

Check the logs, I came here often to read but dont post much. I've watched most of the Angels games this year.

Well I don’t really care whether these dudes get to watch the game but when I had MLBtv they advertised it as x amount of out of market games a week.  But I’ve seen a few guys say they bought it to watch every game. Like they’ve been lied to. 

As a matter of fact yes...they promise every out of market regular season game. I've had mlb.tv since its start. They have ammended that over the years to NOT include nationally broadcast games on Fox...but those are nationally televised games that most can recieve...but that is STILL not what they promise when you sign up and pay them for, and it's BS also.

And Strad...you are such an apologetic, excuse making, corperate asslicker. Good to see you havent changed.

I'm not watching because I  already paid to watch "all games" on MLB. I have no interest in starting an Apple tv account or increasing the amount of spam emails.  No big loss based on how the Angels have been playing. 

This is exactly what I told MLB.TV when I called them to voice my displeasure.

AW Bracket this year?

Never going to happen.

If they dont get it together pretty soon I might cancel my interest, at least for this year. Another interrupted, shortened season...after everything that has happened the past few seasons. is unacceptable to me.

Some of you guys watch a lot of TV

Doesn't look like there will be any baseball for a while so I'm catching up on what else to watch when the season gets cancelled altogether..

Fuck these assholes...all of them. Sick of this.

Thanks GB!

The fans are ALWAYS the ones who get the shaft!   Racing boards worry about everything BUT the fans. The Medina Spirit situation is STILL unresolved and the horse is running today in the biggest race of the year. Unless they are hit in the wallet they will never get that the fans ARE THE GAME .

If someone can press a button to scratch a horse they can press a button to un-scratch it! 

HOW THE HELL CAN A HORSE BE FIT TO RACE, BUT NOT FIT TO WAGER ON?

After taking it in the ass I will probably sit tomorrow out..

But for those of you who will be playing...

Build around these horses.

Tarnawa (probable winner)and Broome (likeable longshot)

Malathat and Shedaresthedevil..(Latruska wont win)

And no matter what they try to tell you.. Knicks Go will have to fall down to be beaten.

This is one where lawsuits will be coming out.  Can you imagine having the pick 6 to him as a single, then losing it because your horse won but someone fucked up and scratched him?

Robbed me out of multiple P4's and the P5's..and all of the money I might have bet (and maybe won) tomorrow.

Spent the last few weeks handicapping this day ( months really) After Pizza Bianca (who was key in a few of my bets, I was alive to multiple horizontals with a horse that IMO couldn't lose (and didnt) This day should have been my best day in 40+ years of following this sport.  

To say I'm pissed is a huge understatement. I'm really just numb. Its like a bad dream.

...and now the lead is gone.

Welcome to my postseason world.

As a lifelong Cubs fan, I feel your pain.

The pitching edge is squarely in the Braves favor now..and there is the Dumbsty factor..so keep the faith.

It's been a fun series to watch but my mute button is being tested with the Chop and the horrible commercials (the Serena one is especially annoying and it is being shown every half inning)

I still think the Braves have a huge advantage and should prevail.

Just looking at that number makes me realize how stupid signing Rendon was. Even if he plays up to his standard, it was just so unnecessary. 

Just another example of name power taking precedence over building a winning TEAM. 

Just now, Angels 1961 said:

I agree not 1 big front of rotation pitcher will put halos over the hump. Angels finally have some youth to work with in Adell, Marsh, Ward, Walsh, Fletcher plus young pitchers. Build even a bigger base and trade both Trout and Ohtani. 

One of, if not the biggest, problem with Arte's ownership. He values "Star" power above all else. Having a big name draw has always been his priority, Having a viable MLB TEAM is beyond his scope of understanding. Many of us have railed and screamed about this for years. I dont see any hope of it changing as long as Artie is the owner.

Many long time fans have given up and moved on.

No playoffs streak remains intact.
