Friday LinkFrogging – 3/25/11

RIP Welcome back  boys and girls. All the Geeks are back from Austin and, in my case, points further south.  Thanks to Matt for holding down the fort whilst I was in sunny Naples, Florida working as arm candy and dancing with the blue agave (which is quite different than Dancing at the Blue Iguana). …

The 10 Greatest Fictional Baseball Players of All Time

Its that time of year. The games that matter are getting fewer and fewer as the Boys of Summer head into the fall.  Add to that the impending return of HBO's brilliantly profane Eastbound and Down and me coaching my kids' baseball team and I've got the great American past time on the brain. I'll …

Friday LinkFrogging – 4/9/10

I don't know about you dear reader, but this week has been like a double album.  There were some really good tracks, a lot of filler and some stuff I don't ever want to hear again. Did that make any sense? No?  Figures.  That's just the kind of week I've had. Let's just move on …

Hate the White Sox

‘My name is Stephe, and I’m a Kansas City Royals fan.’ ‘Hello, Stephe.’ ‘Um, yeah, it’s been like forever since we’ve played meaningful games in, gosh, I don’t know, July, so it’s been pretty tough on us.’ ‘Uh-huh.’ ‘Yup.’ ‘We’ve been there brother.’ And so it goes when you’re a small-market fan. Year in and …

Reimagining Major League Baseball – Take 2

A while back I wrote a lengthy post about my idea to realign Major League Baseball along geographical lines.  My idea was to group teams in a way that made sense based solely on their physical location (ie both New York teams in the same division). Shortly after that, Stephe and I started talking about how …
