Apparently, you can listen to audio of the game. On Wednesday, I clicked the Audio link on the Scoreboard page, and was able to listen at work.

When I tried that today, it forwards me to the Sign Up screen. I didn't have a subscription last year. Any ideas to help me get around this? Thanks.

Go Rangers!

Jacobs Field is no more

txranger7 — Fri, 11 Jan 2008 17:52:21 -0000

After 13 years, the Cleveland Indians have renamed their ball park to Progressive Field.

That's too bad. Get ready for all the Progressive puns. I hope people will still call it "The Jake".

See the poll question.

What do you call the place where the Rangers play their home games?

txranger7 — Tue, 23 Jan 2007 21:22:06 -0000

For those of you in the DFW area, the Rangers will be having their Winter Carnival (now called Fan Fest) this Saturday at The Ballpark in Arlington. 9am - 5pm.

http://texas.rangers.mlb.com/NASApp/mlb/tex/fan_forum/fanfest.jsp

Weather permitting, you can run the bases and catch pop ups. If they announce who will be signing autographs, I'll post it here as well.

Admission is $5 unless you're under 3 feet tall. Season ticket holders get in free.

Poll question is to your right.

Update [2007-1-25 17:33:54 by txranger7]:
Additional Fan Fest details (tentative autograph schedules, etc) can be found by going here.

Will you be attending Fan Fest?

OT: President Ford

txranger7 — Wed, 27 Dec 2006 05:18:54 -0000

Former President Gerald Ford passed away on Tuesday at the age of 93.

Even though his hospital visits were publicized a couple of months ago, I was still surprised to hear the news.

He was the longest living president, followed by Ronald Reagan, who also died at 93. Ford had been living at his desert home in Rancho Mirage, Calif., about 130 miles east of Los Angeles.
