Barry Bonds Wants To Coach
Barry wants to be a hitting coach now. The real life bobblehead spoke up last night from the World Series opener in San Fran. When asked if he'd like to return and coach, Bonds replied, "I have a gift and sooner or later I have to give it away. I have to share it. Hopefully I'll get the opportunity here." Makes sense really, since Barry has [...]
Brady vs. Bradford
After hearing about New England Patriot quarterback Tom Brady's new four year contract extension of $72 million, I did the math and figured out that it comes out to a $52,000 paycheck EVERY DAY for the next four years. If that doesn't rattle your cage enough, as part of the deal he receives $49 million of that just for signing the deal, [...]
Morgan vs. Marlins
Not sure if you've been following the recent saga with the Washington Nationals outfielder Nyjer Morgan and the Florida Marlins, but it's been an interesting to watch.

Stephen Strasburg Will Need Tommy John Surgery
This is devastating not only to my fantasy baseball team, The Honey Nut Ichiros, but this is terrible news for the Washington Nationals. This franchise can't catch a break. Jayson Stark wrote a great article about Strasburg's injury and the effect it will have on baseball. Let's hope the young fella gets back on the hill next season and [...]
20 Things That Have Happened Since The Cubs Last Won The World Series
Ok, here's the deal. I love the Cardinals. I mean, I LOVE the Cardinals. One of my best friends in the entire world is a Cubs fan. How are we friends?! I know, I know. He got the chance to run me around Wrigley this summer and it's breathtaking to think how many great players have played on that field. And the 7th inning stretch singing of [...]
Will Albert Leave St. Louis?
As a MASSIVE Cardinals fan, this is hard to write. Ryan Howard's crazy contract extension could mean that the Cards, or any other team, may have to shell out upwards of $30 million per year to add Albert to their lineup. That's a stack of cash. It's not a stretch to imagine the Yankees, Red Sox, Mets or even the Cubs will send Albert a blank [...]
In Winning MLB Debut White Sox’s Harrell Creates A Lasting Memory
In one of the greatest baseball movies of all time -Field of Dreams-Kevin Costner’s character Ray Kinsella tracks down the ghost of a former baseball player that only played in one career Major League game and asks “Are you Moonlight Graham?” The elderly ghost of Dr. Graham responds “No one’s called me Moonlight Graham in 50 [...]
LeBron Fan Booted From Indians Game
A brave LeBron James fan showed up for Wednesday night's Indians' game in Cleveland wearing LeBron's new Miami Heat jersey. Notice that nearly everyone is telling the guy he's #1. Brave dude, but not smart. Turns out he and his female friend were booted from the game for being disorderly.
