Joakim Noah
I hate him with the heat of a thousand fiery suns.
The Great Jump Rope Ambush
There was once a great battle won during a Golden Age long past. An Age when kids played Smear The Queer in front yards in full view of and with the sanction of adults; BB gun fights were routinely held on neighborhood streets in full daylight; children could disappear in the woods for hours...
Michael Lewis: The No-Stats All Star
I'm a great fan of Michael Lewis and own all of his books, with Liar's Poker, The Blind Side, and Moneyball among my all-time favorites. He's a sharp writer and social commentator and I imagine a guy it would be a lot of fun to grab a drink with and talk about the world. He has a real talent for...
St. Louis Cardinals: Which Came First, the Good Chemistry or the Winning?
In a recent article posted on stltoday.com, Post-Dispatch writer Joe Strauss addressed the St. Louis Cardinals' intangibles entering the 2012 season against the backdrop of the 2011 and 2010 teams.

This could be it. If the Canucks lose to the Flames (in regulation) the Northwest Division title is lost
GAME TIME: 7:00 PST TV: Sportsnet Pacific The Enemy: Matchsticks and Gasoline ----------------------------- UPDATE: Zanstorm calls it: Blackout is in, Hansen is out. Luongo is equating the atmosphere to the Chicago game. So expect someone to slash him in the face and the ensuing line brawl to...
Mike Gillis does not plan on making many or any moves at the Trade Deadline
From NHL.com (and of course a hat tip to the CDC forum guys): Mike Gillis said he has freedom from ownership to spend to the salary cap to make the Vancouver Canucks a better team before 3 p.m. ET on March 4, but the first-year general manager doesn't sound like he's yearning to throw around money...
Saturday Applesauce
Despite recent comments to the contrary, it appears that Luis Castillo will be the starter at second base when he is activated from the disabled list tonight. Argenis Reyes has been getting the bulk of the playing time lately, though his 60 OPS+ leaves plenty to be desired (an additional 40 OPS+ or...
