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 [...]
Hi everyone, and welcome to our first installment of Great Moments in Trash Talking. In honor of baseball finally being in full swing, pun intended, I thought I’d tell you the story of my favorite piece of trash talking in baseball’s greatest rivalry.
It was August 1, 1973 and the Yankees were playing the Red Sox. [...]

The baseball off-season has been slow to develop, unless your team was already awesome. The Yanks got Granderson; the Sawx got Lackey and Mike Cameron; the Phillies traded one ace to Seattle (Lee) for another from Toronto (Halladay); the Angels got Matsui; the Mets will probably land Jason Bay; the Cardinals are desperate to re-sign [...]

Yesterday the Red Sox blew a ninth inning lead in an elimination game and lost to the Angels, getting swept out of the playoffs in embarrassing fashion. They brought out their Papelboner in the ninth inning, and were about to finish when the Angels rallied and caused a serious case of playoff blue balls thanks [...]

For those of you that haven’t seen any of the playoff games, good for you. I guarantee you were doing something better. And for those of you, like me, who have watched them closely: I’m sorry. Seriously. These games have sucked. My eyes want a refund. Here’s my break down:
Rockies at Philly Game 1
BORING! Normally [...]

During the All-Star break, JD and I got together to make our second half predictions for playoff teams, award winners, etc. I know hindsight is 20/20, but man, we were WAY off. Here’ the first half covering the AL:

Pat just sent me this link which led to the following exchange:
Me: Nice article. Your fanbase is generally made up of terrible people.
Pat: In all seriousness, man, it’s fucking terrible. I hate it. I’m so glad I’m in NY and not f#cking MA. You’re absolutely 200% right, terrible people. One of my best friends is [...]

I’m trying to tread carefully here, but this needs to be talked about. And I’m a Gentile, so just want to say that I’m not trying to piss anyone off. Only Yankees fans.
Last Sunday, I was watching the Cardinals play the Cubs on ESPN. Don’t ask me why I watched this instead of the Giants/ [...]

I am an unabashed fan of the Boston Red Sox and David Ortiz. If you are not a fan of the team than you can have no idea what David Ortiz as a player means to his fans. It is with that said that I feel like I have to believe his words from his [...]
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 [...]
