ESPN.com - Mazzone for the Hall?
I've been a Braves for more about 12 years now. I became one while watching Francisco Cabrera single home Sid Bream in 1992. But I've stayed one because John Schuerholz Bobby Cox and Leo Mazzone have fielded entertaining and excellent teams over the years. Plus watching Cox yell at the umpires and Mazzone rock hypnotically and nervously is always fun. Schuerholz and Cox are almost sure to be in the Hall of Fame someday,... Continue reading

ESPN.com RealTime Scoreboards
These things are freaking awesome, but you have to be an ESPN Insider to access them. It's called ESPN.com RealTime Scoreboard, I found it and used it to follow the first couple of rounds of the NCAA Tourney while I was at work. Now I'm using it to follow ALL the baseball games in progress while getting pitch by pitch info on the Braves or Astros. Here's what ESPN says about it... ESPN RealTime is... Continue reading

ESPN Page 2 - Baseball's all-time all-hair team
There's some pretty funny pics in this article. Sparked by Johnny Damon's new Passion of the Christ hair cut (or lack thereof), they look back at all the weird/bad/good haircuts. Afros, mullets, and handle-bar mustaches abound. Check it out.... Continue reading

UConn idiots
This is absolutely awesome and incredibly appalling all at once. There are some really stupid freaking people out there, most of them appear to attend colleges in the NE that win baseketball championships (UConn, Michigan State). How drunk/stupid do you have to be to do this? And how small must your penis be if you think it makes you cool. My favorite one is number four. This is a must click link.... Continue reading

Horns DE Pittman to transfer after semester
This sucks. Chase Pittman, a soph DE, is transferring from Texas at the end of the semester. That's a shame because that's one of the positions where the Horns have the LEAST depth. He would've definitely played and helped a lot this year. My gut feeling is that he's tired of only being remembered as Cole Pittman's little bro. (For those who don't know, Cole was also a Texas football player who was killed in... Continue reading

Can I put Dontrelle Willis in my fantasy OF?
Dontrelle Willis is pitching pretty well to start the season, but he's freaking hitting the ball even better. So far he is 6 for 6 this year, with a homer, a double, and 3 RBIs. That's better than half my fantasy team's outfielders are doing. I've got several guys with no RBIs. Oh, and he's still got an ERA of 0.00. Pretty impressive, but I still think he's a chump. Last night's Marlins game.... Continue reading

No one cares about girls dunking
This is the biggest politically correct BS I've seen in a while. A high school chick won the damn McDonald's All-American slam dunk contest because she's a chick. Her dunks sucked. She's 19 feet tall, it takes a five inch vertical to be able to dunk. Give me a break. Read this.... Continue reading
