Just Wake Me When It's Over
September, of course, is when baseball approaches my favorite part of the season — the end. I have no genuine qualms with the game or its fans; in fact, I can think of few more enjoyable ways to spend a sunny weekend afternoon than taking in a Greenville Drive game and enjoying moderately-overpriced...

Just remember, most of said "wisdom" comes from years of losing ridiculously speculative bets; when you lose all your money don't ...
College Games You'd Wade Through A Pile Of $#!+ To See
Only two games this weekend feature ranked opponents going head-to-head. But there are still plenty of intriguing non-conference matchups on the schedule. And you never know when a highly ranked team will shit the bed against an unworthy foe. Could Florida lose to Troy? Anything's possible now....
All of those fun little technical difficulties from last weekend have been sorted out (the difference a space bar can make!) and we're ready to go for week 2 of Hugh II: The Nedessy Continues...

Why The Radio Silence From The Cardinals?
It has been about 15 hours since the Rick Ankiel story broke, and so far, the only public comment has been Cardinals general manager Walt Jocketty's clearly confused, wha-wha-WHAT? quote of "This is the first I've heard of this; If it's true, obviously it would be very tragic, along with everything ...

He Should Have Armed Himself If He's Going To Decorate His Saloon With Our Friend
Look son, being a good shot, being quick with a pistol, that don't do no harm, but it don't mean much next to being cool-headed.
