Off Day time fillers

The finger lashing I received from NYRoyal about casual fans viewing/listening of the world series got me thinking about what RR folks do on off days. I'm probably going to listen to either cleveland/NY or Stl/chicago.... my best friend is a STL guy, so it's handy to occasionaly view one of their silly pitchers hitting games, but what non-Royals game do you find most interesting today?
three more words.
Tribe Reaction
not encouraging any shennaigans, just liked the part he wrote at the top.
"...8,000 cold Kansas City residents were chanting "Let's go, Royals!" And they meant it. They were watching their boys eviscerate the presumptive divisional favorites, and they felt a sea change."

WBC: WTF?

While I've got a pretty good read on NYRoyal's take on the WBC, what does everyone else think about it? Is this a fantastic PR tool to increase worldwide reception on MLB, increasing it's fanbase and recuritment spectrum or just a distraction from team building during spring training? It may be a tad off topic, but with nine royals playing, I thought I'd ask people who know far, far more about baseball than me.
Lineup awesomeness

my buddies and i spoke on the phone at the lineup last night.... is anyone else impressed with the way Hillmoney is handling the DH/1B situation? I've been really nervous about Olivo, but him and Buck both in the lineup rocks! Pardon my unbridled enthusiasm, i'm just hyped about this development.
i'd kinda like to see TPJ in the 9 hole like a pitcher in the NL.
anyone care to guess tonights lineups?
mine:
DDJ
Grudz
Teahen
Buck
Butler
Guillen
Gordon
Pena
Olivo

A few Stats from last night

Rany on the Royals
A few years ago, I came up with what I like to call Jazayerli’s Law of Fundamentals, which states: "A team's ability to execute the "fundamentals" is inversely correlated to the time spent discussing the importance of executing them."
if you aren't reading Rany Jazayerli's Blog, you're missing out. i really liked this jab.

This'll probably be off topic for some readers, but I'm guessing that at least some of the expatriated community has considered either XM or Sirius Radio.
Are we still looking for Pitchers?

I kinda thought we were full up...and then some, but this article says we're checking him out....
isn't one unstable guy in pen enough? i'd love some one with better numbers to breakdown ponson's value. maybe we can sign him, dump him and let the cardinals have him. seems like a good strategy...

Return from the woods

on Royals Review
I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach, and not, when I came to die, to discover that I had not lived. I did not wish to live what was not life, living is so dear; nor did I wish to practice resignation, unless it was quite necessary. I wanted to live deep and suck out all the marrow of life, to live so sturdily and Spartan-like as to put to rout all that was not life, to cut a broad swath and shave close, to drive life into a corner, and reduce it to its lowest terms, and, if it proved to be mean, why then to get the whole and genuine meanness of it, and publish its meanness to the world; or if it were sublime, to know it by experience, and to be able to give a true account of it in my next excursion.

Good day

I'll go ahead and classify this as a good day. I found a Royals blog page and the home opener was a win. I'm glad that MLB.com has gameday, but I wish it wasn't the only option for me. My connection is to slow for the streaming video and i don't actually own a television.... I wonder how long of an AM loop it'd take to get 810 7 minutes from Arkansas...
