For a while in the sixth grade we pretended we knew French — but in reality it was just that one line in the Beatles song "Michelle" that we memorized and repeated to impress our friends. Apparently the folks over at MLB Blogs never even got that far. The Expos are long gone, after all, so why sho...

We'd like to introduce a new feature, because features are fun and make the day just fly fly fly by. In case you missed it, former Sportingnews.com "new media" dropout Mark Newman has resurfaced at MLB.com to help Bud Selig sell something that you absolutely cannot find anywhere else (particularly...

They are the weblogs that time forgot. The blogs of the damned. Let us take a moment today to pay homage to the brave sites that have been consigned to the MLB Blogs scrap heap. Oh, once they were thriving Internet communities. But no more. Tour of Duty, That's Not Orange and Five-for-Five ... we...

The facts: Alter Bridge guitarist Mark Tremonti has an MLB blog. Tremonti is pals with Boston's Johnny Damon. Damon is rumored to be one of the next big names to go down in baseball's steroids sweep. How about some insight, Mark? Dish, baby. ...

We find it hard at times to keep up with MLB Blogs because of its the breakneck pace. When visiting Replaying the Past, for instance, we often have to take a breather to collect our wits, stop our heads from spinning and have someone from the clinic across the street take our blood pressure. It's ...
Come Watch Grainy Video Of Nobodies
We don't mean to overstate our case here, but we'll just say that tomorrow's EXCLUSIVE WEB CAST! of the New York-Penn League All-Star Game is likely to be watched by the relatives of those playing, and that's about it. And, honestly, that's probably being generous....

Apparently, they have radio stations on MLB Blogs right now, and everyone is just kind of linking to each other and talking about each other. That guy in the picture is the blogger at Diehard Ball Fan, and he was on a radio show and he's all excited....

We've figured out where all the Tampa Bay Devil Rays fans are: England! Yep, today's hot MLB Blog is Rays From Across The Pond, a site devoted to the least-exciting baseball team, which, after all is still better than cricket. Best post:...

MLB.com's Casey Stern has no peer behind a microphone, unless you count Carson Daly. Actually he's more of a cross between Pauly Shore and Christopher Knight — one day he's going to startle a guest when his voice changes right on the air. Stern — remember, he was a loser on the ESPN reality show ...

Having just spent the morning removing about a dozen rolls of toilet paper from the roof and the trees in the front yard, we think it's great when kids get involved with a constructive activity. Witness Look Who I Just Interviewed, written by a 13-year-old named Michael who chats with various majo...

Most of the blogs here are harmless drivel, but occasionally we trip over one that scares us, quite frankly. In reading Down the Left Field Line; Life, Baseball and Eric Byrnes, we felt kind of the same way we did when seeing Fatal Attractionfor the first time. A little sorry for the rabbit and u...
The Sound Of MLB Blogs Silence
If you're looking for insight from Orioles fans on the Rafael Palmeiro steroid situation, what better place than MLB Blogs? Um, yeah. Hello? Anyone? (Sound of crickets). Either there are no O's fans at MLB Blogs — a distinct possibility — or they're laying low, waiting for this to blow over. Th...

Remember Sniffles, the naive, fast talking mouse from the old Warner Brothers cartoons? Sniffles hung out with a bookworm and always had a million questions, which gave us painful headaches even as a kid....

In 2005 Summer Baseball Odyssey, an Australian named Alex takes a tour of U.S. ballparks. How is this different than if, say, you or I did it? Well, Alex uses terms such as "Bloody American Airlines," "centre field" and "winners of three games on the trot." And then there's this report from Busch...

A few things you should know about MLB Blogs.com: · They like to call their site "The Area." · All the blogs are most likely written by no more than two people, tops, down in the MLB.com basement (one on weekends). · They claim that their bloggers "Get down to the nitty-gritty." If by that they me...

We've been following this site for some time now, and to put it plainly, MLB Blogs is in trouble. They are Woodward & Bernstein before Watergate. Drudge before Monica. MLB Blogs needs a big story — a scoop, a defining moment. Also a spell-check function wouldn't hurt....

Casting a wide net, MLB Blogs.com has recruited Alter Bridge guitarist Mark Tremonti to its stable of writers. We weren't quite sure what Alter Bridge was, so had to Google it (they used to be Creed). For those of you now looking up Creed, just skip this item entirely, OK? Attempting to mix profe...

One thing about Tommy Lasorda: He's not afraid to tackle the tough issues. Have steroids tainted the record book? Should Pete Rose be in the Hall of Fame? What of the Kenny Rogers incident? These are issues that will, um, have to be addressed at another time. Right now Tommy wants to remind us that...
