    You’ve got to hand it to baseball, for putting together (so far) two great games to begin this year’s World Series. Yes, Game Two ended with a less-than-thrilling 7-1 score, but if you watched the thing you know the game … Continue reading →

    I apologize for the delay in today’s post. And that Monday’s post seems to have disappeared entirely. While this situation is addressed, let us focus on happier things, like basking in the glow of Redskin victories and five-hour nailbiting baseball … Continue reading →

    (Insert sniveling sex joke here)

    Much has been made over Playboy’s recent decision to cease publishing nude photographs in its magazine. I’ve hardly seen any real commentary on this other than ha-ha statements noting the irony or gratuitous digs at “reading the articles.” As a … Continue reading →

    Fargo bringing it this season

    I’ll admit that baseball’s LCS has not exactly brought drama as far as the series themselves. A few good moments and a few good games, but last night I had one game end 14-2 and the other end with one … Continue reading →

    Mets, Jets

    Someone alert the hippies… it is 1969. Was that Tom Seaver I saw on the mound yesterday for the New York Metropolitans? Was that Joe Namath quarterbacking the New York Jets? There was a time in my life I used … Continue reading →

    LCS match-ups set

    Reply

    Baseball’s final four is set, and we’ve got the blue-and-white teams facing off to play the winner of the blue-and-orange teams. Experienced money has got to be with the K.C. Royals, while sabermetric money probably lies with the Jays. Sentimental … Continue reading →

    Signs the Apocalypse is upon us

    1. The Chicago Cubs win a playoff series. 2. Playboy stops running nude photographs. 3. Democratic presidential candidates make the occasional cogent argument at a debate. Begin to worry, everyone. … Continue reading →

    ‘Skins somehow always disappoint

    Much as I love seeing my hometown Washington Redskins play reasonably well I can’t help feeling a bit a bit nostalgic for games of yesteryear, when I assumed they had no chance of winning. Games such as that played yesterday, … Continue reading →

    This past Wednesday I turned 33 and 1/3 years old. Not exactly a milestone, but noteworthy nonetheless. I’m happy to say that in conjunction with said “birthday,” my new album, Still Playing at 33 1/3, will be available for sale … Continue reading →

    Game 163 kind of looked like 160, 161, 162

    Well, at least I got to sit down and actually watch one full baseball game this season. Unfortunately it went pretty much as I expected. I’ll admit I got to see only an embarrassingly-small number of baseball games this year. … Continue reading →
