1-0 baby! Thats what Mike Zimmer does, goes blind in one eye and has surgery after surgery after surgery and wins preseason games. No one does it better. Now, I did not actually watch the game because even though I live in New York and they were playing the Buffalo Bills, the game was not … Continue reading The Minnesota Vikings Meaningless Game Number One Recap

Don’t Look Now But The Red Sox Have Won 8 Straight
Thats a real life winning streak coming at you. I forgot how much fun baseball can be when your team actually resembles a competent set of human beings working together to achieve a common goal. You know things are going well when even Rick looks good. I am not sure how much longer this wave … Continue reading Don’t Look Now But The Red Sox Have Won 8 Straight

Yankees, Not Red Sox, Trade For Todd Frazier, Others
I am so glad this is finally over and I no longer have to worry about what it would feel like to trade the remaining top prospect in the organization for a package that includes an aging third basemen just barely peaking over over the Mendoza Line. I also realize the Yankees got some much … Continue reading Yankees, Not Red Sox, Trade For Todd Frazier, Others
Sox Finally Cut Ties With Overweight Millionaire
I want to preface this post with stating that I have many fat friends who are shit at baseball so the harsh wording I'm about to use is perfectly fine. Back in 2015, the sox needed a third baseman. Unfortunately, they ended up with Pablo Sandoval. The overweight, 'switch hitting,' mediocre at best, hot corner … Continue reading Sox Finally Cut Ties With Overweight Millionaire
Monday Morning Malice: The Trop
Florida is the fucking worst. It’s a place for dads who abandon their families and dumb people that are too stupid to realize California exists. Florida is the reason I’m in favor of global warming. I’m not a climatologist, but it feels safe to assume that that waste of beach will be the first place … Continue reading Monday Morning Malice: The Trop

I’m Dumb And Must Hate Myself Because I’ve Decided To Become A Knicks Fan At 32
I grew up in Iowa, or as most people I meet call it, “Idaho, wait Ohio?” This meant that I was not geographically obligated to support a specific team. It also meant I had to make a choice, something I’m shit at now and was no better at 20 years prior. First I was a … Continue reading I’m Dumb And Must Hate Myself Because I’ve Decided To Become A Knicks Fan At 32
