Attention citizens of the National League Eastern Division: You have a new champion.
There isn't a combination of Phillie or Marlin or Brave or National wins that adds to a hill of beans now. They can't touch us in 2006. We win.
It is fricking remarkable that we haven't been able to say that since 1988. Back […]

Baby where I come from.
It's been a long time, been a long time,
Been a long lonely lonely lonely lonely lonely time.
I didn't […]

Hey partner: Do you remember the 27th night of September?
C'mon, think…six years ago. You and I witnessed what nobody has seen since then, what many of us hope to see tonight.
We saw the Mets clinch at Shea!
WOO-HOO!
OK, it wasn't that woo-hooish. But it happened. Surely one of the six most memorable clinches in Mets history […]

Everybody cleared out? Sanchez? Bay? Ronnie Freaking Paulino? We wouldn't want to hurt a single human being.
Not so fast there, Randa.
KA-BOOM!!!
Pity, I really liked PNC Park. Of course I saw it when the Cardinals were the visiting team and I had nothing invested in the outcome. It was much prettier then. But you know the […]
