Bud Selig Meets Bill Lumbergh
I expect the issue of the first responder caps will go away soon, if it hasn't already. I am totally okay with it going away, as I feel it detracts from the Mets' ceremonies on the 10th anniversary of 9/11, which I found generally well done and at times moving. And yet, the whole thing remains so...
Nassau Coliseum Referendum: Nothing changes, if nothing changes
One of my all-time favorite quotes is from an everyday regular guy I grew up with. It's simplistic in its Yogism and complex in its philosophical underpinnings: "Nothing changes if nothing changes." I'm not going to tell you how to vote Aug. 1. I don't know what's best for you...most of the time...

'Yankee Way' is about winning
So, Yankee broadcaster Michael Kay and radio blabbermouth Mike Francesa apparently have themselves all in a lather about the team actually having fun. It seems Kay, Francesa and possibly ex-Yankee stars David Cone and Paul O'Neill, aren't too happy with the whipped cream pie celebrations. Or with...
Tuesday Applesauce
Arizona Fall League Peoria Javelinas 4, Peoria Saguaros 2 Daniel Murphy went 0-for-4 and is a total bum. Shawn Bowman went 1-for-4 with a double. Josh Thole, my non-Murphy mancrush this fall, went 3-for-3 with a walk, a double, a run and an RBI. Eddie Kunz pitched a scoreless ninth, which was a...
