america’s pastime
varied baseball nuggets for today:
+ the sea bass are up to 7th (out of 10) in the goat? fantasy league. if the season ended today… i’d be satisfied.
+ relatedly: am i going to hell because i’m cheering for a-rod (first-round pick for the sea bass) this season? yeah. i thought so.
+ if you haven’t already, read this. it’s a little dated, but is a perfect example of why i’m in love with firejoemorgan.com.
+ while the twins game tonight has been pretty depressing overall, i found a bright spot: yanks first baseman doug mientkiewicz grounding a ball to justin morneau, who starts a 3-6-3 double play. makes me forget about david ortiz a little bit.
+ lastly, sometimes baseball is really a game of multiple purposes. thanks to ETC for the link.
play ball.

Just to confirm: yes, you are going to hell. Not just because of the A-Rod thing, but I think that clinches it.

that FJM think is beautiful… I agree that ripping on radio is boring and like shooting fish in a barrel, but every once in a while it needs to be done… maybe if you drafted Soriano he wouldn’t suck so bad…
