Does anyone have the baseball package with DirecTV?... I can't find the channel that airs 8 games at once on the screen... It used to be 720-1 but it's not there...

God i hate agreeing with a Dodger fan ... but ya your right ... I'm sure this happens alot, we just dont hear about it often.. also just because a few stupid fans here and there like to start sh*t doesn't mean all of them are like that...

It's still there, maybe you changed your line-up recently or something?

I have it set for all channels and after channel 701 it jumps to 750... I'll reset the box and see what happens...

Doesn't change the fact that LA is a cesspool of violence and crime. Something about the area attracts the lowest common denominators of society.

As does St. Louis, Detroit, Oakland, Cleveland, etc, etc. What's your point? Newsflash just about every city has their own scum of the earth. But way to go classifying all us Dodger fans as such. I mean Giant fans showed such class flying a banner over Dodger Stadium proclaiming their greatness.

Im just addressing the issue. It's not acceptable pointing to other examples of bad behaviour as an excuse for your own. It really is a problem and shouldn't be viewed as "just the way things are". Maybe a stronger police presence is required when the G-men are in town. I know here in San Diego it looks like a police convention when the Raiders play Qualcomm. I wasn't trying to single out individual Dodgers fans just saying on the whole there is a problem that should be looked at by law enforcement.

Must be something wrong with my box because it's still not there... Now it jumps from channel 701 to 727...

Why is your box jumping at all? Go into the manual thing and tell it channel 720.1 exists, if you still can't find it, I would recommend speaking to DirecTV's customer service, they should be able to help you straighten it out.

Damn life sure is crazy when its for real. Finally have some free time.


Sox need to stop giving up home runs.

Don't worry, I'm a Giants fan and I don't classify all your fans that way. Very few really. But hey, I'll get my fair share of people hating on me when I move down there and they realize I'm a Giants fan. But it will always be worth it.

Pirates win with a Walker Grand Slam, 6-3 over the Cubs! This is there year!

Time to get ready for the Rays game with the Birds from Baltimore!

I don't think there is anything more fun and entertaining than going to a Giant vs Dodger game and watching the fans rib each other in good fun. It's always the drunken idiots and gang members that have to ruin it.

Agreed. It's fun going back and forth with Dodgers fans on who the better team is. Some of the best games I've been to are the Giants vs Dodgers.

Why on earth would someone want to watch 8 games on 1 screen? Do you have a few extra pairs of eyes I don't know about?

I'd stick with the Pens and Steelers man. The Pirates havn't had a winning record since 1992 and won't anytime soon. And that's really ashame considering the franchise has a very good history. As long as the same fools continue to own the Pirates they'll never spend a diem on the team. They are content making profits by fielding terrible teams.

Twins-JAYS gettin' ready to go. Hoping Adam Lind and Aaron Hill have pulled their collective heads out of their collective asses from last year's DISAPPOINTING performances. They can NOT let us down again if we want post season play...and WE DO......GO JAYS.

Jays are rolling the Twins tonight. Already 6-0. I'll probably watch Saturday's game since I'm curious to see how Doug Drabek Jr. looks. Heard a lot of good things about him.
