Monday's nagging question is, where's Mr. Belvedere when you really need him?

Bonds' Anti-Climactic Trip To Shea
We've been fortunate enough, during our time here in New York, to see the Shea Stadium crowd riled up a few times, including our favorite, John Rocker's return to Shea for the first time, in June 2000, since his infamous 7 train remarks. (As was typical at the time, the crowd booed him lustily, an...

The Virtual Ghost Of Scott Kazmir
One of our favorite aspects of this here Internets is something that should be self-evident: Its inherent appeal to obsessives.

From Stoned To Brewer
On Sunday, Philadelphia's Ryan Howard hit yet another home run, his 12th of the month. The guy's hot, and, judging from his physique, pretty obviously not on steroids. But that's not the most interesting part of his homer; what we're fascinated by is whom he hit it off....

(As True Hoop points out, are they really going to ...
