I was trying to say a punt that went off the side of a kid's foot was a shanked punt, but instead I said "skanked".

Caught a couple more Chip classics last night in the Dodgers-Phillies game. A Dodger hitter bounced one over the mound and he said "Liner up the middle, on three bounces, and Utley can't handle it". Then on Rollins' game-winner, he screamed "here comes the throw to the plate, not in time!" when the relay throw from right-center was bobbled in short RF and was never thrown in. What a clown.

Get off Chip's back. Non-fiction aint his best suit. He's a creator. He invents.

I think he's more of the appendix of Desipio.  Yeah, it's here and you're vaguely aware of it, but only if reminded.  The only time anyone notices it is when it ruptures (on Weebs in the video game thread).  Beyond that, though, it's basically useless and offers no redeeming value.

With any luck, Chip's season will be over tonight.

Wow. I actually have a rooting interest in this series now that Philly's up 3-1. Not that I'll be watching. After this we'll be blissfully Chip-free and in the capable hands of Joe Buck who, "calls an excellent game!"

Get rid of that damn pitchtrak on TBS.  Nice once you get deep in the count, but it does not need to be ubiquitous.

I like it, especially that it's only viewable on HD screens.  There's nothing over there to see anyway on the center-field view.

I like the thingy that shows how fast the ball is out the pitcher's hand and then how fast it is at home plate.  I like it a lot.

I'd like to see if on a tv bigger than 30" - on my small screen it's distracting.

So sad.

Quote"Monsters in the Morning" will be looking for a new home in 2010.

Early Friday afternoon, it was announced Comcast SportsNet and "Monsters" parent company, Licorice LTD, which is owned by Mike North and his wife BeBe, have decided not to renew their contract. CSN president Jim Corno said the show will continue on his network through Dec. 31.

"It's an economic decision," Mr. Corno said. "It's an expensive show to produce. We originally agreed to do the show for a year and see how it would work out. We like the show, but this is part of television. Networks launch and cancel shows every day."

Mr. North could not be reached immediately for comment. Mr. Corno said Mr. North hopes to find another outlet for the show.

Why is it so expensive? They have to haul in herds of cattle to feed Jiggets.

That's terrible news.  What a great show that is.  Cookie's and underrated comedian and I love the drama of the Grand Prize game.
