    ABL 2010/11 Season Thread.

    They better be changing the liquor license. That is ridiculous to confine drinking to a spot where you can't see the game. And what's with the music? Hanson's Oom Bop? Who are they kidding. For a starters let people take drinks to their seats and replace Oom Bop with Freddie King's "Going...

    ABL teams get names.

    Moorabbin? Why would you build a 5000 seater between golf links? It's not even close to a railway station. There's no public transport. It's hardly central. No bars, pubs or restaurants to go to after a game. I thought the team was called Melbourne. Not the Southeast Aces. How moronic is the...

    ABL teams get names.

    If the Melbourne Aces (terrible name by the way) play their home games at Altona then the ABL can kiss goodbye the Melbourne market - the most competitive sporting market in Australia. With a revamped domestic cricket comp being announced this willingness to go down the ghetto pathway will...

    Where will the Melbourne ABL franchise play?

    Cheers Mattys123. It sure has been hard to find on a simple google search.

    One HD coverage of MLB

    One coverage has stepped it up a gear. It might have something to do with the German soccer league and NBL having finally finished up. Or maybe more viewers are interested in baseball than say BMX, Rally Driving and Bull Riding. Anyway, at the moment they are showing about three live games a...

    Hardwick is the key

    It's there for everyone else to see. I always thought the other mods had some balls, some understanding of where we need to go. Shout out to Khan. Dude, take it easy brother. My sincerest condolences. Hope the win brought some sunshine to your door. Hardwick is the best thing that has happened...

    Where will the Melbourne ABL franchise play?

    Just ignore all previous posts lamenting what a shocking investment Altona was for Victorian baseball. Take off the blinkers. Altona is terrible.

    Where will the Melbourne ABL franchise play?

    Altona isn't close to anything aside from an arterial to Geelong. The surface on the infield doesn't even match the outfield. An unmitigated disaster building that thing. Cheltenham (and the surrounding area) is something of a baseball area but it's imperative they play near the city. Even...

    Where will the Melbourne ABL franchise play?

    Cheers Bingles, Jonesy and MattyS. Interesting choice of venue. At least it's handy to get too. Hope it's set up for night games.

    Where will the Melbourne ABL franchise play?

    The ABL has already rolled out part of its marketing campaign online and on Fox Sports. The season is less than six months away. One question remains. Where the hell is the Melbourne franchise going to play its home games? Geelong? Well, its not Melbourne. Altona? An absolute disaster. La...

    MLB Question

    Usalion, How did you come by Australian Rules football? And two baseball related questions: Do you think it's time they realigned the divisions, as they do every once in a while? Who is the best player you have seen perform live?

    We are a bottom 6 side..we are pathetic

    Oh please, go call a waa-mubulance. One game in four, with a good chunk of underdone and missing personel, against a side belted all week in the media. It's AFL, get used to it.

    One HD coverage of MLB

    As soon as you try and do the right thing by ONE they let you down. The Twins home opener against the Red Sox was not telecast this morning as advertised but rather the Cards vs Astros - a semi lackluster affair providing you don't mind watching Wainwright completely outclass a team sorely...

    Joe West rips into Yankees and the Sox

    Quite clearly I DO hate the Red Sox and Yankees. Yes I thought I made that clear in my post. Did it diminish the game? No. That was not the issue. It was a great game. Is West entitled to an opinion especially when the subject is time - the jurisdiction of the umpire and not the players. Ah...

    One HD coverage of MLB

    It took a week or so to get their act together but some congratulations are in order for ONE - providing of course they actually broadcast the games they have programmed as upcoming: TUESDAY Boston Red Sox @ Minnesota Twins. New stadium, excellent pitching match-up. Full house. Lots of Target...
