Dave Niehaus will be inducted into the Hall of Fame on Sunday morning, and if you haven't started driving yet, well, we don't think you'll be able to make it to Cooperstown by then. Luckily for you, the 10:30 a.m. ceremony will be broadcast on ESPN Classic and over the radio on 950 KJR. The Hall of Fame may have some sort of live streaming on their website; however, this is the Baseball Hall of......

You won't be interested in this post's subject matter and if Seattlest tried to describe to you the many subtle pleasures of Almost Live you would probably come away with the feeling that the show is a provincial, cable access level copy of a copy of Saturday Night Live. And since Saturday Night Live itself sucks (except the news - we love you Tina) we just......
