The Curly Haired Boyfriend is up to his old tricks, apparently anyone who doesn’t want to vote for Jim Rice for the HOF needs to “get out of the house and look at the sky one time.” This guy has been paid as a professional writer forever and that’s the best putdown he can come […]

“Bruce Campbell is the greatest actor of his generation!”
January 16th, 2008 · 3 Comments
It’s not always going to be about baseball here. And when it comes to Bruce Campbell, I’m willing to take such a digression: “…before he rips my head off and shoves it in my face.” Bruce Campbell is a god. That is all.

Local Boy Makes Good

Friend of the site, Pete Toms, has a new column over at Baseball Digest Daily. It always amazes me how many smart people are out there directing their considerable intellect towards baseball. In my weaker moments I sometimes wonder if some of this energy wouldn’t be better directed toward our government. Then I regain my […]

Rays of Hope
January 13th, 2008 · 15 Comments
One of the more interesting themes being discussed this offseason is whether the Tampa Bay Devil Rays are finally getting their ship righted and headed for glory in the not too distant future. You see it here in a nice article by Joe Henderson. I did an interview with the Drays bay wesbite about a […]

Larry Lucchino: “I love me some of that Mitchell report”
January 11th, 2008 · No Comments
Dickens character and President/CEO of the Boston Red Sox, Larry Lucchino, has come out in support of the Mitchell report. Why his opinion on this matters, I couldn’t tell you. I also can’t tell you why, when I see his name, images of off-brand Macaroni & Cheese boxes and a variety of Bar-S lunchmeats float […]

According to this, a member of the 2004 Red Sox used PEDs. Asking me to answer questions about whether I took PEDs will not solve the problem. If I answer ‘No I did not,’ I simply will not be believed; if I answer ‘Yes I did,’ I risk public scorn and endless government investigations. My […]

As I Stew in Abject Poverty…
January 10th, 2008 · 1 Comment
…Jay Mariotti stew’s in the imbecilic asshattery that is his regular column for the Chicago Sun-Times. The thing that always bugs me about Jay is the sneaking suspicion that whether he believes any of the sewage he writes is entirely besides the point to him. For Jay, it’s all about carving out his niche in […]

Goose Gonna Live Forever
January 8th, 2008 · No Comments
The votes from the writers are in and Goose Gossage is heading to Cooperstown. Jim Rice barely missed the 75% needed and Mark McGwire finished with only 23.6% of the vote in a glorious confirmation of ex post facto laws everywhere. Rice now has one more year to get elected, if not he’ll drop into […]

A Clear Indication of Guilt if Ever There Was One
January 7th, 2008 · 5 Comments
Gerry Fraley has decided that when he adds two plus two, he gets “CLEMENS IS A FILTHY DIRTY LIAR!” Fraley seems to believe that a “no comment” from Joe Torre indicates clear evidence of guilt for Clemens. He may be right about Clemens but then since Fraley sexually molests 10 year old cancer patients at […]

Mets Touched By an Angel
January 5th, 2008 · 1 Comment
I don’t know how you can trade Corey Coles and Ryan Meyers and come out the overwhelming loser of the trade. The Mets managed to do it though, they traded Coles and Meyers for Angel Pagan. Coles is the same age as Pagan and a better hitter (probably) so I’m unclear as to what the […]
