    So as you know MLBTV finally went live on Friday.

    My initial thought is that's it's going to a nice broadcast resource.
    The sets look nice and I like the talent.
    Also, I believe, there will be games (much like NBATV and NFL Net)...and they will be able to break into any game and show live coverage..that will be cool.

    I just hope it doesn't turn into Yankess and Red Sox TV...much like ESPN is.

    What do you think?

    Great, a whole network dedicated to the most boring sport ever created.

    I think there are way too many specialty cable TV channels.

    What's next? The doorknob network??

    Hopefully they'll change that. A good idea would be to show old world series games throughout MLB history. There's been a ton of great matchups.
    Maybe show This Week in Baseball also.
