Photos from a Cubs game at Wrigley

Aren't all Cubs' games televised, too? It's just a handful are televised in the Chicagoland area only.

Not all games are televised. What drives me batty is when a game is being televised on another sports net and I can't watch it because it is blacked out for my area.

I watch WGN cable version (no WB programs). Perhaps they could air those games that weren't originally scheduled to be telecast on this channel. After all, there aren't any WB conflicts and the Cubs games probably get better ratings than America's Funniest Videos. I'd be content watching the out of town telecasts - complete with the other station's play by play announcers if it meant getting to watch the game over not getting the game in at all.

Another annoyance is when the Cubs game is scheduled to air on ESPN-HD and get blacked out. We get in so few games in high def and then when it is supposed to air in high def - they black it out. Arrrrgh!

Quote from HBO website

The World of Oz

In 16 seasons as a major league shortstop, Ozzie Guillen established himself as a slick-fielding, fundamentally sound ballplayer, who was embraced by teammates, fans and the media in Chicago and Atlanta. Since assuming the field manager's job with the Chicago White Sox in 2003, his visibility has grown dramatically - and so has his reputation as one of the game's most outspoken, politically incorrect personalities. Beloved by his players and Sox management, Guillen guided the lightly regarded White Sox to the 2005 World Series championship, stunning the baseball establishment with unpredictable moves in a game steeped in the tradition of "playing by the book." REAL SPORTS visits the 42-year-old native of Venezuela to find out what makes him tick on and off the field, and learn how he motivates today's ballplayer, who may earn ten times the salary of the manager.

I'd really like to see WGN/Comcast air all of those end of the year Cubs highlight films from the past 26 years. I think people would enjoy watching them. If they aired one a week that would run half a year before repeats.

The Chicago Sun Times reviews a new book by former Cubs announcer Milo Hamilton...

Book it: Hamilton still harried by Caray
February 9, 2006
BY RON RAPOPORT SUN-TIMES COLUMNIST

It is more than 20 years later, and Milo Hamilton hasn't forgotten. Not a single minute. Not a single incident. Not a single insult. Not a single word.

And now the words are his -- more than 4,000 of them in an explosive chapter in his new autobiography that savages Harry Caray from beginning to end.

How to live for six-plus weeks in Mesa is a personal choice that varies wildly for all Cub personnel. WGN's Pat Tomasulo visited Cubs players Jerry Hairston and Scott Eyre at their home of choice to look at both ends of the spring training housing spectrum.
