Bonus news to reuse: Metro trimming in Boston?, Phils tix on sale Feb. 21 and the Spectrum was just here a minute ago...

 
[ ]   As we mentioned last week, Metro is up for sale and it may be making sure it has its house in order by trimming in Boston, first….So much for that extra Patriots Super Bowl coverage. Damn. (Boston Globe)
 
[ ]   The Phils announced their 2008 promotional schedule. Old faves Dollar Dog Night, Rooftop Thursday and Stitch n’ Pitch Night return.
 
Highlights:
 
> Chase Utley growth chart: Saturday, May 3, 7:05 p.m. vs. San Francisco Giants
Gives women across the Philly area license to use “Utley” and “inches” in the same sentence without being slapped with a restraining order.
 
> Fourth annual women's softball celebration: Saturday, May 17, 7:05 p.m. vs. Toronto Blue Jays
Let’s hope Jennie Finch is on a roster.
 
>1970s retro night: Friday, Aug. 22, 7:05 p.m. vs. Los Angeles Dodgers
If there were ever a time to bust out Bake McBride Wig Night, THIS IS IT!
 
And, uh, fwiw, BUY, BUY, BUY.

More politics, better- here.
