Andy Pettite was fun to watch Saturday night. After his victory to take the Yankees up 2-1 in the World Series, he now has the most wins in postseason history with 17. It was not an easy game for him: he couldn’t throw the curve-ball for strikes, his pitches were up in the zone, Jason [...]

Since he’s so “locked-in” and “in-the-zone,” Alex Rodriguez did his best to stay sharp during his day off. The Yankees and Angels continue their series on Thursday, so Alex spent Wednesday helping out in the LA (Anahiem) area. In the morning, he got off to a hot start by cleaning Mrs. Kohler’s gutters.
“I’ve never seen [...]

John Sterling is the local New York Yankees radio announcer. To say the least, he is a “character”. That’s just me being polite.

These two teams fight like little girls. All bets are off: hair-pulling, biting, groin-kicking, eye-gouging, and even this. Awesome!

…and a great win from my team. Yep, last night I went to the cathedral “House ThatNew York Taxpayers Built” and I’ve got a few things to say about it:
I’m a Yankees fan. I love the Red Sox. Yeah, that’s right. Soak it in. I know that team better than any other team aside from the Yankees. I lived in Boston in 2004 (FUCK!) and I watched almost all of their games that season. I need them. I need the 5.5 hour match-ups with [...]

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 [...]
