If You Were Wondering, Yes, It's Still No Longer Raining In St. Louis
A legitimate question: Is this World Series ever going to end? We're not saying that we find it boring, because we (obviously) don't.

The Yearly John Rocker Award
Few baseball fans hate quite as well as fans of the New York Mets. They do it with panache, style, pure vitriol and hard-won experience.
