YOU GUYS.

~ Just saw a commercial for Dan Haren's In My Own Words.

Audio of him claiming "I've always been a family guy. When I leave my kid and go on road trips? I cry." Over images of Danny playing on the floor with his oddly named infant spawn.

What is that?!? That's not fair. You're killing me, FSNAZ. My ovaries can't take that kind of stuff this early in the morning.

~ I apparently cannot take much early in the morning. I have no desire to see Terminator: Salvation, but I just love the use of NIN's The Day The World Went Away in the trailer. Well done, trailer editing person! Does anyone have an mp3 of this remix?

Yeah, you knew. We were all kidding about his spawn and Mulder's spawn hanging out together, in all their odd-name glory :P

As near as I can tell, In My Own Words is a behind the scenes series like ESPN's The Life used to be? Each ep is spent with a different athlete, and you learn more about who they are "off the field" as well as on. I actually have not seen an ep, so I am just guessing based on the commercial, and the fact that I have seen other eps with other athletes listed on my schedule.

i should not be worrying about these things so early in the morning when i haven't done any of my work that's due in less than 12 hours.

lol, are you in that zen stage that comes after panic, or have you not panicked yet?

yes, yes. i remember that now. but i don't remember the kid's name.

i want to see this "in my own words" thing. is it specific to FSNAZ? because it'd be sad if it was. i'd check out MLBnetwork, but i've found that all their scheduled programming is never what it seems, so i don't trust what the little guides on my tv tell me. those punks.

ooooh, i'm pretty much settling into full-on panic mode. 10 pages of a paper when i haven't read the articles? plus i have to study for a final in the same class? and i think there's a lab i'm supposed to do. i don't know why i do this to myself... but sleep was soo nice! hehehe.

In My Own Words is an FSN thing, so you would have to check your local FSN network. I don't know if they air Danny's across all of them? I remember, on FSN Midwest, seeing nationally recognizable names (football, boxing) but also local heroes like Bob Gibson, Tony La Russa.

this is pathetic. i don't even know what channel FSN is in my area! this is what happens when both new york teams have their own tv channels. i think FSN airs mostly hockey and college sports, stuff that no one watches, haha.

hmm, it looks like they don't even air FSN in new york anymore. i will find this information though! it's my new quest!!

it's official. we do not get FSN. :(

Yeah, we don't have a regional FSN down here either. I think perhaps the only FSN on the east coast is FSN Florida?

I'll certainly burn the special to a dvd, and maybe I can re-find the program I used to use a couple of years ago to rip longish videos from dvds. If not, I'll just have to subject you guys to an indepth recap, with screencaps :P

After seeing Comcast and WGN's pre and post game, I realize I was pretty spoiled with FSN. It kinda kicks ass. (Even if Best Damn is on a dozen times a week.)

I'm even partial to the segue-to-commercial music.

FoxSports on MSN (http://multimedia.foxsports.com/) archives clips of IMOW. Unfortunately not whole eps at a time. But if there's someone that you know has an episode, you should be able to find their segments in there. :)

If the episode is recently aired, I used to be able to find it through just MSN video, and it was much easier to navigate, you can just click from one "segment" to another using the "related videos" tab on the side. I'm trying to do that right now but it seems like they've changed the setup and completely fucked everything up. >:\
