A Special Tonight @ 6:30: "A Day in the Life" : Brad Ziegler

I just happened to be checking my menu for a couple of shows that air on Thursdays and I happened to stumble upon this little jewel. Voila!

It will air on CSNBA on Comcast. Not sure about the Direct TV or Dish Network stations but it should be a pretty cool insight to all things "Ziggy". Hope most of you can watch or tape it to watch later. Maybe Ziggy will answer some fan mail on the program early for us hardcore A's fans...Who knows? Enjoy!!!!!! Go A's!

CSNBA

It’s channel 696 for DirecTV, 419 (I believe) for Dish Network, and channel 37 on cable.

Yeah

Cable varies depending on where you live. I forgot about that momentarily.

This eppy will run for a few weeks, so there'll still be time to catch it if anyone missed it. :)

Unfortunately, kind of boring

I like Ziggy and profiles of players and such – and I’m a geek for the Blue Angels – but this was a long build up to him actually flying and not much else. A lot of gentile conversations between him and the pilots and ground crew, walking from one building to the next, riding in a van, Ziggy driving everyone to the base in the morning, etc. Very little baseball.

I suppose the flight was only a few minutes, but is seemed like the producers could’ve done a lot more to make a half hour show about Ziggy more interesting. I’m sure I’ll still sit through it again though!

I did watch it a little while ago.

It was cool to see Ziggy get to live out one of his dreams flying with The Blue Angels. I was a little disappointed only because I thought there would be some actual behind the scenes of A"s baseball stuff. Oh well……..maybe they will do another episode with some different stuff next time.

i'd have thought it'd be better if he had gone with the navy on

USS Pampanito or something

when did we stop using adverbs proper?
