rant Stories - Amazin' Avenue
Not necessarily the news
Like everyone who writes, either for a living or for the love of it, I am occasionally prone to rants. This is one of them, so you might want to stop reading now. If your prurient curiosity gets the better of you and you end up reading further, I commend (and sympathize with) you. But there's...
Fearless Opinion: Head Shots
Continuing on with trying to entertain Canucks fans during the long layoff, I've decided to think outside the Nucks box. I have to try to contain my anger when the head shot issue is continually brought up on mainstream hockey shows and websites, and I have to try to contain it now. What follows...
Mets Fan Reeducation: The Media, The Management, And You
When I heard Reverend James Lawson, a local professor at Vanderbilt and a hero of the Civil Rights movement, speak about First Amendment rights, I was taken aback by one thing in particular he said (and I'm paraphrasing): "The news media is based on hate for the other party." His words took on...
Mets Fans Can't Deal With Average
Currently, the Mets stand just one game above the mythical .500 mark, the same record as the Mariners, who lost 101 games last year. The team remains very much in the race, mostly thanks to the incompetence and injury problems of the rival Phillies. Still, the sense among most Mets fans seems to be...
Game 31: Everything Wrong With This Organization
Here's my knee-jerk reaction to tonight's game. I know it looks bad to do this kind of post right after the first loss in eight games, but there were specific things that were particularly annoying about this game. 1. Derek Lowe- I'm all for moving on from this Lowe/Perez business, as they are...

Staturday: Its not ranting if the facts back me up.
I am not a patient muppet. Nor am I renowned for my optimism. So the last time I wrote something that wasn’t, at best, a summary of the work of others I took a small leap of faith to include Rafael Furcal as one of the assets on the A’s 2009 roster. At the time, I didn’t think...
You've Got To Be Kidding Me
Mike Myers has a terrible new movie in production where he plays some sort of love guru who grew up in India or some shit, I don't know. Anyway, he serves as a counselor to a hockey player (who plays for the Maple Leafs) and his wife. The hockey player's wife tries to hurt her husband by dating a...
