urbansnowgirl commented on an earlier post about it, so, here it is for anyone else who wanted it! ayrdaomei had posted it in four parts, and I put them all together and compressed it into one file, and the size actually isn't too big, either.

There is only 1 picture at Wireimage, but I'm looking for more.

ayrdaomei is a lifesaver! I got the downloads :D :D :D .... :Oanyone remember these? they can all be accessed from that link - 2001, 2002 and 2003. actually, there are a whole bunch of links to audio interviews with a lot of other current/past players on there as well. i could never get them to play for me before and of course, they're not working for me now even though i have a brand new computer. i don't suppose anyone knows of a way to rip them so we can get them in here before they're eventually deleted?
Does anyone have the video that went with this news article? http://abclocal.go.com/kgo/story?section=a
The link unfortunately died. I'd really appreciate it. :)
Also, if you want to step back into time, here is a Surfin With Barry Zito show from April 6 2002 http://www.sendspace.com/file/ri729y and April 10 2002 http://www.sendspace.com/file/g8zswl that I recorded a long time ago. I have more shows somewhere, but I'm not sure where they are at the moment.
some archived audio clips featuring:
● jason kendall
● barry zito
● nick swisher
● eric byrnes; x2
just in case you're living in a cave ...macha is officially gone. that blog cracks me up, by the way. and this one is just as good of a read:
what can $120 million buy?
1. a 3rd place finish (behind a mediocre team)
2. AIDS
3. the most overrated prospects in the history of this universe
4. a bunch of loud mouthed bitches who don't own up to their own worthlessness (you know who you are curt schilling, varitek, jon lester and peter gammons).
i'm genuinely surprised to hear all of the bullshit coming out now that macha is gone. i must admit, this is the first time i'm hearing negative things about macha from inside of the organization. he had a couple of excellent seasons in the mid-90s managing a minor league team from the local city i grew up in. i suppose that's where my familiarity of his personality ends. what i can't understand is that they brought him back after letting him go once before and the players are said to have "supported" that move. i think it's pretty safe to assume macha didn't turn into an asshole overnight. perhaps billy beane needs to fire himself as well ...something doesn't add up here. the other thing that's been bothering me is zito's supposed departure. if he really wants to leave, he's entitled to that. but if it's a money issue, loaiza and calero = gone. replace them with minor leaguers who can be paid less to pitch equally as shitty. what's the problem here?
The one of Barry is the most depressing for obvious reasons.

bouncyin honor of the alds, there's a new layout in the community. speaking of which, how many of you lucky bastards are going to attend/have attended a playoff game? also, for those that aren't aware yet, barry zito is maintaining a post-season blog over here.
i know everyone has already seen these, but i have a terrible time loading mlb.com photo galleries (yay for dial-up), so i'm going to archive them in here. besides, clubhouse celebration photos never get old.
i was wondering if anyone has read this book yet, and if so, is it worth my time/money?
