Let's Settle This College Football Playoff Problem Right Now
I know we go through this every single year and we just go round and round talking past each other and arguing about this pro and that con and then 12 months later we end up right back where we started—complaining about the Florida Gators. But when even the President-Elect of the United States is be...

World Series Preview: Rays Vs. Phillies
The World Series is truly my favorite week of the year. Having the World Series going on is an excuse that gets you out of anything, every year. No matter what plans I might be forced into, all I have to say is, "Hey, the World Series is on," and people understand. You know how Will gets about his ...

Baseball Coverage Takes An Ugly, Off-Key Turn
Some of you will be enjoying Game 3 of the NLCS. But if there's another episode of this going on, they may outlaw baseball in this country for good. For some reason, the TBS crew thought this was a good idea. Now I can understand some of these other hooligans taking part in this sort of thing, but ...

ALCS Preview: Rays Vs. Red Sox
It is perhaps a clear indication that I drink a bit more than I should that, when I saw that the Rays and the Red Sox had both clinched on the same night, I thought, "Whew, good. Now one team won't be more hungover than the other one in Game 1." Hey, sometimes these things matter. I have to speak o...
NLCS Preview: Phillies Vs. Dodgers
I pay so much closer attention to the National League than the American League, and I got both of the NLDS dramatically wrong. To be fair, I was trying to jinx the Cubs and spite the Phillies. Yes, I have that kind of power. So do you, actually. Being a fan rules. Series Schedule Game 1: Thursday, ...
Bosox Look To Sweep The Angels
Tonight the Red Sox will look to sweep the Angels and head to the ALCS, but they'll do it without J.D. Drew. Drew is being sat tonight because of back issues. ...

The Cubs Will Have To Wait 'Til Next Year
The Cubs suffered a 3-1 loss last night, becoming the first team eliminated in the post-season and sending the Dodgers to the NLCS. Los Angeles pitcher Hiroki Kuroda held Chicago's offense at bay, throwing 6 1/3 innings and allowing no runs. The Cubs now get to shuffle home with the consolation of t...
It's Go Big Or Go Home For Brewers, Cubs
Tonight belongs to the National League as the Phillies and the Dodgers try to advance to the Championship series with one more win. I beg of both lagging teams, can we please have a Divison series go beyond 3 games? Just one, please? Show you care, dammit! And should the Phillies win, look out for D...
Boston and Tampa One Win Away From the ALCS
Ah, the post season. According to many, it's the only part of baseball worth watching. As a Yankees fan, I have to agree disagree agree oh fuck it. I don't even know anymore. What I do know is that it's fun to watch team like the Rays and Dodgers do well. And for the first time, I find my self enjoy...

ALDS Preview: Rays Vs. White Sox
The Tampa Bay Rays are in the playoffs. Let it roll off your tongue. Toss it around. Swish it a bit. Look at the sentence closer. It might be a palindrome. The Tampa Bay Rays Are In The Playoffs.

NLDS Preview: Cubs Vs. Dodgers
From the very first day of Spring Training, the general consensus has been that This Is The Cubs' Year. (This has caused me considerable frightened quivering, pretty much from the get-go.) It's not just the 100 years thing either. It's difficult to argue that the Cubs haven't been the best team in ...
