The MLB boards are a sewer, IMO. Very little honest talk of the game of baseball goes on there.
Because MLB took over......years back the teams ran their own site.....Chicago fans are still the ____________ on any forum.
I don't follow the mlb.com boards, but do check the team web site before just about every game. If I was at home, I'd have that Gameday live box up on the computer.
My big beef with mlb.com is that autoplay crap. I hate it that they suck up your bandwidth by streaming video without asking. I wrote them a nastygram explaining what a rude, ahole move it was for any website autoplay crap without asking.
Pisses me off so much that if it weren't for the great Gameday feature, I wouldn't go there at all.
