Anyone have a clue as to the acquisition of All star tickets this year at phone park? The whole enchilada too, I wanna see HR derby, celebrity softball, the Tubes reunion for the national anthem...is it a lottery, only giants season ticket holders, only open to residents of Balco?

oops
those are only for the all-star fanfest. i believe you have to be a giants season ticket holder for 2007 AND 2008 if you want to go to the game.

LAAAAAME.

yep, you need
to buy 2 years worth of season tickets to get the all star game tickets. Either that or have a corporatoin give some to you. Time to lean on your suppliers.
Tickets are going for around 700-1000 for the game and 550-800 on ebay for the derby.

You realize this is the DLD, right? This is where YOU can post some baseball related links if you think there are any interesting/relevant ones.

Personally, during the offseason, the non-baseball related links are more interesting to me. Odds are that if there is big A's news it'll be on the front page and have 3 or 4 diaries about it before you can say "I'm banning myself!". The DLD always spins into non-baseball stuff anyway, I'm just giving it a push.

Who might fill Bud Selig's shoes when he retires in a few years?  Jerry Crasnick reviews the frontrunners, including at least two men who have "gone to Harvard."

But I'm thinking he's missing the obvious candidates:  Charlie McCarthy, the Pets.com dog, and (dare I say it) Grover.  Because I think we all know how the owners really see this job.  And when it comes to filling Bud's shoes, well, Bozo is tanned, rested and ready!

The term "suck" may well go back
to the early days of jazz, meaning the opposite of "blow," meaning that if you could really "blow," you were good. See the definitions in the Urban Dictionary.  By "suck," I'm suggesting that they won't blow.  In other words, while I hope that the A's will "blow," in a good sense, I fear that they will not do well against the hated Angels, the detested Rangers, and even the Seattle Mariners. But in reality, I think they will kick ass.  By kick ass, I am not suggesting that they will physically place their collective foot against any one collective "ass," but merely that they will "do well."
