This week in baseball

[bigpaulie]

Who else wishes they would bring back This Week In Baseball, the show was a big part of my memories when attending games as a kid. I know it was never the same after Mel Allen passed, but if done right I think it would work.

Yeah I hadn't thought of that in years. I only vaguely remember it but remember it being very compelling.

 

Would it work now that every game is televised though? Maybe if they focused on major events of the week and major shifts in team rankings.

My 7 year old asked me about my favorite none Blue Jay tonight, Cal Ripken, and he wanted to see a video on Cal, found a short video from This Week In Baseball, I almost here the noise of batting practice while I watched it http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GDlwZLG3LUI

No baseball fan from my generation can hear that theme song and not get chills. So good.
