Extra Innings

Some leftover thoughts from today's show, because 1 hour just isn't enough for the world of sports every week. If you haven't listened yet, check out The B Zone, and you can listen to old shows by clicking the Podcast link. Also you can join our group and check out our page under The B Zone.

-If you weren't listening, we discussed the World of Sports as always, but we had a show first today. Our first caller, Tood Weil, called to discuss a little baseball and some surprise teams like his Marlins, and Mark's Orioles. But it is early and things will change, I am sure of it. Don't sweat it Detroit fans.

-I wanted to talk a little about The Masters because Tiger Woods is peaking in his golf career, and is doing things in sports that may never happen again. It is hard to not root for Tiger, as in my opinion it's easy to root for greatness. Tiger Woods is at a level above any other golfer, and although everyone knows he is good, he really is one of a kind. It is Masters week, so a few random thoughts.

-There are 2 great things about The Masters that make it unique and a great tournament.

1. The Champions Dinner- All the players who have won a Green Jacket go to a dinner on the Wednesday before The Masters tee's off and eat together. Only the winners are allowed, and the winner from last year picks the menu, what a great idea. I would love to see a 30 minute ESPN special on what went on at that dinner.
2. The Champions Locker Room- There are 2 separate locker rooms at The Masters, one for the golfers who have won a Green Jacket, and one for all the other golfers. I can not even imagine how great the Champions Locker Room is, and all old winners are allowed in that locker room for the rest of their lives. This idea should flow into other sports somehow.

-You have to pick Tiger Woods this weekend, and I am looking forward to watching him dominate and continue to do things that we have never seen in sports. I am rooting for him to win The Grand Slam this season, and I expect a 5 or 6 shot victory at Augusta.

-Finally, we started a weekly segment on the show, listening to Major League Baseball team's old videos that are a perfect 10 on the unintentional comedy scale. After watching these videos you have to wonder what the marketing people were thinking, and how ridiculous the songs are. This week in honor of the best MLB team right now, the Baltimore Orioles, enjoy Orioles Magic...




Also, from last weeks show we played And We Said Lets Go Mets by Lucas Prata from the 2006 Mets season. A little longer than Orioles Magic, but it is totally worth the watch, as watching the video is 10 times better than just listening to it.
And we say...Lets Go Mets!
