Quincy Carter Hits Bottom Again
Once again our Arena League II fantasy team has been thrown into disarray with the news that Quincy Carter has been arrested on drug-related charges. As you know, Carter most recently played for the AFL's minor league Bossier-Shreveport Battle Wings, but now resides in the Caddo Correctional Center ...

Those Seven Run 11th Innings Will Kill You
We are posting this just to prove to you that we actually stay up and watch all these games. We know it's a weekend. Skeets will be back with you tomorrow. But man: We are so glad we aren't one of those Red Sox fans who stayed up until 1:30 a.m. for that 11th inning. Heavens....
My Socks Are Bloody With Anticipation
I'm with Shanoff on this one: the Red Sox may have beat the snot out of C.C. and the Indians Friday, but, regardless of that outcome, the winner of Game 2 tonight — 8:21 pm EDT, FOX — will win this series. Well, that, and the difficult task of trying to beat God in the World Series....

ALCS Pants Party: Red Sox Vs. Indians
It is merely a warped factor of history that we might consider these teams somehow equivalent victims of fate. The Indians are "Major League;" the Red Sox are "Fever Pitch." This is not your fault, Red Sox fans, but the truth, nevertheless....
Jonathan Papelbon Is The Lord Of The Dance!
They've stolen me Lucky Charms! Just to get your ready for tonight's American League Championship Series game, we thought we'd show you this, from, I guess, when the Sox clinched the East. You may have already seen it, but it really cannot be emphasized enough. I can't quite put my finger on why, b...
