Bonds on McGwire and Pete Rose

What a surprise, Barry thinks they should be in HOF. McGwire getting shot down must have gotten his attention. Hitler, Stalin and bin Laden will be elected before Bonds, the writers who have had to deal with or be ignored by this maniac for years don’t  care.

The Case for Clemens.

Here are my top 5 points for why the Yankees should sign Clemens as explained by various pop culture references.
1.  Roger and Me.  For whatever reason, Andy needs Clemens to get him fully motivated.  I am hopeful that the Bronx return provides enough motivation, but I doubt it.
2.  Sanford and Son.  Are the Yankees really ready [...]

Where else can you get all this? And Clemens…

References to the show “24,” political analysis, Andy Kauffman references….is this a great site or what? 
I am conflicted about Clemens.  He’s a different kind of pain in the butt.  Things I never worry about with Clemens: Preparation, effort, support for teammates, peformance (more often than not), setting a good example of how to keep yourself [...]

Give me the Damn Mike!

Gotta love Sheffield.  He was 1 for 12 in the Detroit series, with 1 R, 1 RBI and a .083 AVG. Yet he is on the Detroit tour talking like he lead them to the World Series.
 
“And another thing, Joe Torre messed up the lineup.  That’s why I didn’t get my hits.  But that won’t [...]

Addition by Subtraction

I disagree.  Depending upon how the rotation takes shape (Igawa? Pavano?), I would not mind picking up Clemens for the second half.  The Yankees will have some time to see how the rotation performs before deciding to make a serious attempt at Clemens.  Also Clemens is not a bad guy in the clubhouse.  His teammates [...]

Thank you Brian Cashman.  The Yankees are significantly better without Gary (I am great) Sheffield and Randy (Are you talking to me?) Johnson.  Now please do not regress by adding Clemens to this team.
 
 

Back to Baseball

Gotta love Sheff.  I love the quote “We all have testimony.”  Oy ga volt!

Back to Baseball

1. The Red Sox may also try to pry Mike Gonzalez from Atlanta for Wily Mo Pena and a young starter.
2. I’M LOVIN’ IT!!! Sheffield is alreayd mixin’ it up!!! Read here!!

Tongue planted firmly (in my own) cheek

Yes.  I can’t stand Bonds.  I was hoping someone would notice that.  I would deliberately turn off the set when he comes to bat.

One more baseball issue

Russ, was that last comment tongue-in-cheek?  The last thing I want to do this year is watch Bonds break the record.
