[Nfbmo] Baseball at it's finest.

[Gary Wunder]

I always prefer the radio over the television.  Sometimes on the television
I know something spectacular has happened by the commentary or by the yell
of the crowd, but the assumption is that the television viewer has already
seen it.

Hi Everyone:

Having a group trip to a Base ball game sounds fun.

When I have been to  a Cardinal game in the past I have taken a Walk-man 
radio to listen to the game.


I would rather listen to the game on the radio; I think you get more out of 
it then just by watching it on Tv.

For those of you who watch or listen to either the Cardinals or Royals 
which do you find more enjoyable watching the game on tv or listening to the

game on the radio.

Or do you like one or another for different reasons.

That's a winner.

I'd go the a ballgame, but it is kind of far away.  I have, however, ordered
an XM radio, which is the next best thing to going.  I agree that a radio is
a must when at the ballpark.
