Important update for having problems with such games as tonight's Playoff contest, October 17, 2016
It isn't the SAP button. I don't have one. What does work with my DISH remote for Channel 139:


Go to Menu
click system setup
click alternate audio
be sure English is checked.
Bueno!

HEIDI-MOBILE FAST-ASSED 67 BUG

First baseball: Let me start by saying I lived in Espana por dos anos y dos mesas from 2004-2006 and I used to watch several hour live bullfighting broadcasts on Spanish TV -- Yeah, Wow, right? -- but this beisbol in espanol is frigging annoying.

Is Turner saving money by doing this, screwing the sports fan once again or is there some other stupid-assed reason? I "googled" this last year and found no reasonable explantion -- no it is not the SAP setting. This applies to the games on Channel 139 of Dish I get here in New Mexico.

Back here. I have used computers for years, including during my first job in Sports in Texas and later at The Miami Herald and the Sun-Sentinel in South Florida and computers, and their not working, or not working right never ceases to amaze me.


I am in some weird font I have not encountered on my BlogSpot blogs since starting them about nine years ago. I feel as if I am on deadline and will just roll with  the punches. That is fitting as I was thinking today of a reporter I worked with in Lifesyle who would say, "I can't talk I'm on deadline." I would tell her in Sports you are always on deadline, as in the night I met Don King covering a fight on Miami Beach one of the fighters managed by his son was fighting in. When the fight ended, how long did I have to finish my story using the old Radio Shack computers we called Trash 80s? Eight minutes.


OK I want to get this published and get onto my VW story. That car is like an old girlfriend, for sure. But first, why the hell the Spanish for these beisbol games...But it fits well. I told a Hispanic friend Pat Ortiz last year I could not believe all the Hispanics in baseball now. Then last night the Hispanic pitcher for the O's gave up the game winning homer to the Hispanic batter from the Blue Jays. OK I want this published -- will make corrections later. BTW, I like the two broadcasters for the Spanish language broadcast and I understand the damned language. Entiendes, Mendes?


Back here to finish, whatever problems I am having with style and font today. Now that car: my excellent mechanic Marshall Painter of Davie, Florida, just west of Fort Lauderdale told me my '73 Super Beetle engine he put in as a replacement for the one that finally leaked its last quart of oil, had more horsepower than a '55 Porsche 356. I had a Kadron exhaust system on it that made it sound neater than hell and helped it move faster, too. And it would move...I was covering IMSA sports car racing at the time and took a ride with Michael Andretti in a 950 HP Porsche 935 Turbo the first time he drove anything more powerful than a circa 140 HP Super Vee race car.


We got up to about 160 MPH in a matter of seconds. WOW. Then Andretti braked hard for a series of turns before accelerating again and I began to learn about the thrill of auto racing. So, I took this photo of an old photo of my VW today and wanted to get it on the www. I have been meaning to put it on this blog as I wrote about auto racing before and needed a photo.


This is It.


And I wanted to complain about beisbol en Espanol aqui en NM/USA. I think I read a year ago about TBS running some Sitcoms in Spanish irritating the hell out of viewers. But, hell, this is important -- this is Major League Baseball playoff games we're talking about,  right, Sports Fans?


CIAO PER ADESSO..I LEARNED THAT WHILE LIVING EN ITALIA FOR A YEAR AND A HALF DOING INTELLIGENCE WORK IN THE US AIR FORCE. -- HEIDI AKA PAOLO AKA PABLO. ALSO
DAMNED GOOD GAME TONIGHT -- GIANTS VS. METS. THIS TIME ON ESPN AND EN INGLES...MUCHAS GRACIAS.
