did Greg Smith own us earlier this season?
Or am I thinking of someone else? Let’s just take this game and another series.

Huston Street on the Trop...
“I never thought it was bad before, but I’d still like to get a pad on the bench down in the bullpen,” Street said. “We look across the field and see their bullpen; they’ve got a nice pad. So I’m still campaigning for that. But I guess that’s part of their home-field advantage.”
9 = 8

i know how Street can get a pad and the grounds crew won't have to spend any money...

unless street can hit a curve ball, he shouldn't be our main priority.

Alright: Perhaps I should have taken the time to more adequately express my inquiry, but what I was really asking was the source of your glib comment. If you were merely making some lewd humorous remark that I simply didn’t understand, then I could care less. Of course, if you were indeed complaining about the size of the posted photo, then the statement would carry implications towards my own penchant of posting photos of Lolcats and FAIL boats; therefore I thought it prudent to investigate the impetus of your “SMALLER” statement.

a bullpen priorities mini-rant
getting rid of crappy relievers at the end of the bullpen is about 10% as important as finding 2-3 studs to pitch the innings that are really important. Glover and Miller are pretty bad, but they don’t see any important innings (right?) so who cares? what really wins ballgames is holding the other team scoreless after the sixth inning in a tie game. or holding onto a one run lead after Kaz goes seven strong. with pitching and defense and a mediocre offense comes a lot of close games. we need arms who can hold down the other team almost all the time, not merely most of the time. replacing Wheeler and Percival as closers/setup options is more important than bumping out Glover/Miller

It’s not like FSN-Florida doesn’t have the HD cameras, or that they’re covering something else now.
The only thing that I can think of is that’s its probably more expensive to broadcast games in HD, and the ratings don’t justify it all the time?
