I know it seems petty, but you have to trust me when I say I’m not bragging about being right on this one. This is a sad day in baseball, though probably not for Yankees fans. David Ortiz and Manny Ramirez have been confirmed as two of the names that tested positive in the now-infamous [...]
The Other Fifteen was quoted on SportsCenter this morning. I honestly never thought I’d write a post G rated enough to get on a Disney-owned broadcast. But what can I say, they wanted a piece. I think I’m going to have to fill my next few posts with as much swear-laced, vulgar analogies as I [...]
Mark Beuhrle, fresh off of his perfect game in his last start, had another perfect game going through 5 innings tonight. Although things unravelled for him in that 6th inning and he didn’t reach a second consecutive perfect game, which would have been one of the most improbable feats in baseball history, he did manage [...]
Welcome to the first installment of History Kicks Ass, where we will try to pay homage to the rich history of sports. This week: Urban Shocker. Do I even need to write anything else? Seriously, the guy’s name was Urban Shocker. No, he did not lead an elite anti-gang task force. And no, he is [...]

The Cardinals won the Matt Holliday sweepstakes, much to the chagrin of every other team in the tight NL Central. They traded a good 3B prospect, an outfielder, and a pitcher for the former MVP candidate. So what are the implications of this trade? Find out after the jump.
OMG! I, like, totally have a juicy piece of gossip! I don’t know if I should tell you though. Ok, fine. But you have to keep it quiet. Here’s an email I just got from my friend Chuck Hustle out in San Fran:
“So I was talking to a guy who knows a guy on the [...]
So for the three of you out there who don’t know yet, White Sox pitcher Mark Buehrle threw a perfect game yesterday. In the 9th inning Ozzy Guillen decided to put in defensive replacement Dewayne Wise in center field. As if to prove this was the right move, Wise then proceeded to rob Gabe Kapler [...]
Former relief pitcher Jim Parque admitted to using human growth hormone in an attempt to come back from a shoulder injury. So how did his former White Sox teammates react?
“He really hasn’t been here for years. For me, this is kind of a meaningless story. To me and everyone else around here. He didn’t take [...]
