While I didn’t get to see it since I was blind drunk all weekend at Mark Twan’s wedding, apparently there was some pretty exciting baseball this weekend. In honor of that, here is another installment of Great Moments in Trash-Talking:
It was July, 2004. A-Rod, like many who join the Yankees, was struggling to adjust to [...]

Dearest Grace,
I received your letter several days ago, but decided to let it’s message sink in for a while before replying. I can’t tell you how much your words meant to me. I want to let you know that I understand how you feel. I have often wondered what would happen if we were to [...]

Grace Dunkley-Asphall is a poet and writer who I happened to work with a few years ago. Since we both run our own blogs, we decided to do a swap in which we would post on each other’s sites. Here is Grace’s entry for TOF. Stay tuned for part II when I post a rebuttal [...]

Yes, Johnny Damon became famous as one of the key guys on a team that bragged about being a bunch of idiots. Yes, he married a stripper who he started dating because his friend Derek Lowe, who was nailing her at the time, said “Dude, you have to sleep with this chick. It’s awesome!” But [...]

I think I covered all the cheesy puns that will appear on sports pages this morning. News papers are predictable. Maybe THAT’s why they’re going out of business, because they use puns as headlines. Anyway, Cliff Lee pitched one of the great games in World Series History last night. It would have been a shutout [...]

The World Series is here! There are so many cool angles to this matchup. There are the two best lineups in baseball, two great three-man rotations, former teammates and back-to-back Cy Young winners CC Sabathia and Cliff Lee facing off in game 1 (and maybe more than once), Pedro vs. the Yankees in a contest [...]

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 [...]

So earlier today I said that I had been wrong in calling the Yanks/Angels series non-competitive. Then the Yankees made the Angels toss their salads on live television. CC versus Kazmir is supposed to be a good pitchers duel, which it was for the first few scoreless innings. You would have thought that CC would [...]

I was at the Yankees/Angels game on Saturday night. It was an amazing game. It was a test of wills, both for the teams playing and for the fans that stood for 6 hours in the cold, wind, and rain to see who would come out on top of this grueling endurance contest. Personally, I [...]
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 [...]
