  1. Yeah, I caught the other version of "Ballad..."up at Brendan Byrne/Meadowlands later in the week, too. Another nice "TLMD" that night, as well. Unfortunately, the video only has the entire second set.
  2. I came across this site a little while ago that includes some complete live audio shows as well as some complete live video/audios of Dead shows going back to '67. Some have just whole sets instead of whole shows. I'm watching the Hampton 3-27-88 currently while I download the Veneta '72. There's also the full footage from that RCMH show clip A-man posted earlier, as well as a Warlocks show ('89). Not bad... http://www.tobasai.com/video/video.htm ed. man I was at the Hampton show I'm watching and I don't remember the "Fire" being as fierce as it was. eek.
  3. Piggybacking on A-man's link: I'd never seen this interview with Garcia at an Art show of his before. I particularly like the very end.
  4. Pretty random, but I can see STL wanting to get rid of Rolen for a comparable player as he's been a pain in the ass to deal with for LaRussa. I can see TOR wanting to get Glaus out of town for something comparable, too, due to injury/foot issues from playing half his games on the turf the last two years. I think STL gets the edge in the deal but really, they're both on the downsides of their careers and both injury-prone. And there's this: "According to a source with knowledge of the trade, the Cardinals only signed off on the deal after Glaus agreed to exercise his $11.25 million option
  5. I agree. Sometimes I forget about good reads I've completed until I hear or see them mentioned somewhere. A list isn't a bad idea though I'd probably never do it. And 50 books/year is a hefty amount. I wish I had the time and energy for that many. Sooo many books I have lined up....
  6. In fairness to the rest of us, Artie Garfunkel has had a lot of free time since 1968.
  7. You're right, the return on the Swisher trade is nice for Oakland. The three pitchers are all five-star prospects. But Swisher is in the meat of his career, too, as well as a fan fave. Blanton and Street will probably be going, as well. Two more guys in their prime. I guess I'm used to seeing veteran's with albatross contracts being shipped out of town during team re-buildings rather than fan favorites in their prime.
  8. I understand they're rebuilding and that Beane is probably the best GM out there for that task, it just seems he's getting little in return for dishing away some key figures. I'm sure Oakland will be fine, but right now they've got some big gaps.
  9. Oakland to trade Kotsay to Braves for some shitty pitcher. What's going on with Billy Beane?: http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/news/story?id=3193556 Clemens developed an abscess on his ass around the time McNamee says he was injecting steroids into Clemens in 1998. Abscesses are common side effects of needle injections, apparently: http://www.rotoworld.com/content/home_MLB.aspx And Jacob's Field to be re-named Progressive Field: http://cleveland.indians.mlb.com/news/arti...sp&c_id=cle
  10. Yeah, I've sent at least 3-4 messages to the link and requested a password change around 8-10 times with nothing sent to me or any response. In order to email the admin (marye) you need to be logged in and my problem I need to ask her to fix is that I can't log in. Thanks though, A-man.
  11. Wow. Way off, anthonyc007.
  12. Glaus for Rolen swap on verge: http://msn.foxsports.com/mlb/story/7665630
  13. This is incorrect. Correct: AM BT ST YHF AGIB SBS
  14. My gf (at the time) and I lived in NY for a bit about an hour north of the city and cruised down on a Tuesday night or so for an MSG show on a whim to score tix on the street. We had both worked that day and I popped down to Penn Station u8nderneath to buy a tall boy to sip while we searched for tix above. the beer can was in a paper bag and I opened it when we got above ground and began the search. I had taken literally one sip when a plain-clothed dude walked up to me rapidly and grabbed me by the arm and started pulling me. As I started to get ready to swing at the guy he whipped his badg
  15. Even the ones who weren't technically "elected?"
  16. I doubt it'll go past the end of Spring Training. They'll get more for him before the season starts than mid-season or end of season.
  17. I still think it'd be easier if we were all made to have bar codes tatooed on our necks, but this'll do.
  18. Fantastic. Thanks. Looks like another winner.
