Speaking of baseball...

We should put together a mini-DO when the Yankees visit the Astros in June. It could be a CO hub war kind of thing - EWR vs. IAH! :cool:

The Astros may stink but I can't bear to watch my Yankee fan FTers go home crying after a humiliating loss ;) :p

This sounds like an excellent idea.

I am so in for this, I didn't really want to study for the bar exam anyways.

Paging FCTSTY, you going to make the trek down to IAH to see "The universe restored to order?"

I like the link from astros.com to CO.com that will book tickets to go see the game.

Yep - been using that for awhile. They have added several airports in the last year or so.

I have used it before, i get all the planes heading for EWR runway 22
flying over my office ( about 7 miles to the airport)
There is a delay on the radio, but it is still pretty cool .

Hmmm... Looks like we were right on with the guess of a few European destinations from CLT and PHL. No Asia. No South America. What a winner!

They won rights for PHL-PVG and threatened to not operate it if the PHL authority opened up gates to LCCs. Talk about a bunch of idiots. They also don't have the airplanes yet and cannot seem to find any A330s on the cheap with which to run the service.

It will be too bad if they tank, as it will mean that they took down HP with them, a pretty decent carrier all things considered.

Hub war indeed!!!

We'll save that challenge for a rematch in the post season. But, please keep the gnats out of Cleveland this time! :p

(Yes, it makes me feel better to blame the Yankees demise on the gnats!)

My kid's a big Yankee fan. I was going to get him a baseball autographed by all of the Yankees who took steroids and discovered that I'd need to get a softball. A regulation baseball wouldn't do it.

They have made a pretty cool Indians commercial based on the gnat incident. I'll see if I can find a link for that.

There's an ESPN Baseball Tonight commercial about it, if that's what you're talking about...
