Padres: San Diego Soundgarden

The Padres are up 2-0 on the Cardinals and they go for the sweep today. For those adept at math you are aware that a loss puts the Padres at a .666 winning percentage which, extrapolated over a 162 game schedule, almost always results in a playoff birth. Unfortunately it doesn't work that way...

The purpose of this post was to float some links your way on some of the great sound heard this week. Despite Scott and BR covering an extensive week of god only knows what, there were some great podcasts over at XX.But we'll start it off with Craig Elsten and Tom Krasovic previewing the 2011 Padres at 619 Sports...

Scott and BR
These guys annoy me to no end as they are uninformed about the sports world and mail it in nearly every day. But during opening week even they managed to get some timely guests.

I've listened to most, with a few more to go. If nothing else I have a nice compartment to visit if I want to listen to the rest.

Happy broom day.
