Once in a while, I go through the comments just. It's rather a manual process, because my primitive blogging engine doesn't support viewing all comments, even if you're an admin. Some are really great, so I thought I'd post them here in one entry. Before I go, thank you y'all.

 

MLB Flexes Muscles

I sent this rant which lasts about 5m45s to a few friends in the sports media and they loved it, even the diss about sports journalism.
If I want to introduce someone to a good Molly rant for the first time, this is a good one since its not a heavy tech issue.
4/5 stars.

Molly put forth a slightly harsh rant on a nerdy pirate tool that called in to impress the BOLers. The first season 6 episode of "24" was to be sold on DVD the day after it aired, but actually appeared on bit torrent a week prior to its airing. Poor pirate. Nah, he probably deserved it.

Molly rants about Major League Baseball's new restrictions to news sites regarding media taken from the ballparks. Ballparks which were built mostly from public and regional business funding. The news sites must restrict:

  • Daily highlights to 120 seconds
  • No more than 7 photos per game
  • Audio and video cannot be on the sites for more than 72 hours

Unless the news sites cut a deal with MLB, that is.

Molly rants about Congress' passing of poorly written laws. It came after Rep. Nick Lampson's (D-TX) clarification that the SAFE Act won't force places that provide wi-fi like coffee shops, libraries, or people with wireless routers to monitor their networks for child pornography.
