Hideo Nomo said...: The textbox at the bottom is indeed the only good part of the new layout.; 3/09/2012 12:22 PM
Dusty Baker said...: My textbox is still at the top. What gives??; 3/09/2012 12:28 PM
Jason said...: @Dusty -

Narrow your browser window and the layout will reflow so the text box appears below the last comment.; 3/09/2012 12:36 PM
Hideo Nomo said...: Minimize the window...unless you're on your iPad...then you're screwed.; 3/09/2012 12:36 PM
Hideo Nomo said...: Narrow, not minimize. Duh.; 3/09/2012 12:36 PM
Jason said...: Huh, Gameday is back to the 2011 interface with the buttons along the bottom rather than the tabbed frame on the right.; 3/09/2012 12:38 PM
Dusty Baker said...: Oh wow....got it. Damn, I might have to retract some previous remarks.; 3/09/2012 12:40 PM
Hideo Nomo said...: KEMP!!!; 3/09/2012 12:48 PM
Jason said...: Thanks, Charley, for that anti-climactic Kemp HR call. I'm trying to keep my heart rate at a bare minimum today.; 3/09/2012 12:48 PM
Dusty Baker said...: What just happened? I'm on a conf call so had to mute.

Something involving Kemp, I'm assuming.; 3/09/2012 12:49 PM
Dusty Baker said...: Maybe I wasn't on mute and Steiner just didn't say anything.; 3/09/2012 12:49 PM
Jason said...: I guess Ethier's knee if feeling pretty good today.; 3/09/2012 12:50 PM
Hideo Nomo said...: Dre, you may continue to be a surly cranktopus, as long as you keep hitting like that.; 3/09/2012 12:51 PM
Jason said...: @Dusty, yes a Kemp HR. Or a fly ball, if you take Steiner's word for it.; 3/09/2012 12:51 PM
Hideo Nomo said...: Also, according to Monday, the ball went higher than an airplane.; 3/09/2012 12:54 PM
Dusty Baker said...: Lazy pop fly over the second baseman's head and into the center field bleachers, eh?; 3/09/2012 12:55 PM
Dusty Baker said...: Was he quoting Guns N Roses' "Night Train"?; 3/09/2012 12:56 PM
Hideo Nomo said...: I think he was drinking Night Train.; 3/09/2012 12:58 PM
Dusty Baker said...: I'm on the Night Train!
