What The Hell Are The Bleachers There For Then?
You know, you'd think a job as an assistant general manager of a minor league baseball team would be a cool gig, one with people who get it, man, you know? Apparently, society is evolving far too slowly for Ray Zerba....
Revisiting The Seventh Floor Crew

But here's the thing: What if New York still ends ...

The Orioles Were Who We Thought They Were

The Real Pennant Race Borders Lake Michigan
• Ha-Ha, My Win Cancels Out Your Win. Looks like the NL Central is the lone division that knows how to orchestrate a damn pennant race. The Chicago Cubs won 6-2 over the Colorado Rockies, and they remain just ½ game behind the Milwaukee Brewers. The Brewers also won, but with a smaller margin of vic...

Make These Women Carry Your Stuff
The woman in this photo is Lucy Dardiner, one of the specialty caddies from England's Eye Candy Caddies. The concept is what you think it is: Attractive people, carrying your clubs and, we dunno, feeding you grapes or something....
Three Great Tastes That ... You Know, We're Gonna Stop There
We meant to post this yesterday but didn't get around to it.
