During my daily web-rounds today, I had a "why in the world didn't I think of that moment." Jayson Stark had a cool article about a new use currently popping up for player's iPods - watching game "tape." Just the thought of having all that video archived in the palm of your hand and at your disposal at any time, any place (hello dugout) has got to be a revelation for players addicted to game film.

You've got an upcoming series against say Detroit. You want to see how people succeed against Verlander, how they fail. Assuming your media department is worth it's salt, you just go into your iPod and watch. From the bus. On the way to the game. Or before stepping into the batter's box. Wow.

This is definitely a bonus when you have Lew on your team. He probably has a way to hack into someone's iPod to screw with it. Or has played online recently with someone who knows.
