Gillick has lunch, reporters talk with mouths full

The Inquirer’s web site had a neat little feature yesterday when they provided a windows media and MP3 link to the interview with general manager Pat Gillick. I’ve been doing stuff like that for the past three years, but it’s nice to have someone else aboard. Based on the quality I wonder if they used Zolecki’s iPod?

Anyway, it was interesting to hear though it would have been better if the people in the room were identified. All it says is that “some of the newspaper’s reporters and editors… ” OK. They were having lunch, too, it says. Even better. What did they have?

Here’s a better idea: set up a cheap JVC recorder, install U-Lead and Windows media cleaner to a laptop, edit the tape, compress it, and voila! put it on the web. Better yet, go the You Tube route.

Meanwhile, Paul Hagen had some information about the Aaron Rowand for Scott Linebrink trade that was apparently put on hold.
