All Bad Baseball All the Time
Look what has popped up on Comcast this morning, with no warning. Something called the Mid-Atlantic Sports Network - or "MASN,'' as they've dubbed it. I'd heard rumors about it for a couple of years but I never expected to actually see it. But there it is, on channel 62 on Baltimore's system, right between Fox News Channel and E!
And with the Orioles and Nationals now available, what better neighbor on the channel listings to have than E! Thank you, drive home safely, please tip your waiter.
Speaking of the O's, you've got to love the ads for the Yankees series: "AL East Showdown.'' What's better than a "showdown'' between teams separated by 22 1/2 games with three weeks to go?

Of course its a showdown...the battle to not be mathamatically eliminated! The magic number is 2...good luck O's!

MASN also appeared on my cable here in southern PA today. Flipping ahead in the digital cable guide, it looks like they have a lot of Ravens programming, which is something I'm excited about. The Brian Billick Show is on at 2:30pm today, for those who will be home or have their officeplace wired for cable. I don't exactly know what that show is, but I'm assuming Brian Billick is involved, which is good enough for me. And something called "Orioles classic" is on for three hours Sunday night, which I am crossing my fingers is an old-time Orioles game broadcast in it's entirety.
I also noticed that they carry the Anita Marks Show from 4:00-7:00pm, which is exciting news as well, since I don't really get any Baltimore sports talk on the radio up here. And, of course, Roch is a regular guest, so we'll all get to see and hear him. Does anyone remember what day and time he comes on the show? I didn't pay much attention when he blogged it, because I had no way of listening to the show anyhow before now.
