The Yankees made a move to shore up their outfield, acquiring Eric Hinske from the Pittsburgh Pirates for a couple of minor league guys who will never matter.
Fans hoping Hinske can be to the Yanks what former Pirate Jason Bay has been to the Red Sox: you might as well …

Michael Curry had to deal with a lot as Pistons coach: a misbegotten trade that sent away his best player Chauncey Billups, the impossible task of mixing Allen Iverson into the offense, the aging of guys like Rasheed Wallace and the inevitable meltdown of the aforementioned Iverson who finally had …

Anderson Varejao has decided to test his value in free agency by opting out of the last year on his contract. He could possibly miss out playing with LeBron and Shaq by signing with another team. He could also easily return to the Cavs and make more money. Varejao had really no choice not to [...]

I’m so mad at myself that I didn’t have this blog going during the draft, because it seriously is my favorite day of the baseball calendar. The best way to build your team is through the draft, and it always excites me to see who the Twins settle on.
First round pick Kyle Gibson probably won’t [...]

Here is the link for the game thread over in the forum. Gametime is at 7:00 pm, and the pitching matchup is Joe Blanton on the bump for the Phils, and Derek Lowe for the Braves. This game also features the return of Jimmy Rollins into the lineup, and Rollins will bat leadoff also. You [...]

I’m guilty. I’m guilty like most of you. Upon hearing the news of the King of Pop passing away last week, I turned to my digital library. I made the MJ-RIP playlist in iTunes. I then loaded all of my MJ songs into my iPod shuffle (red, second generation clip one– none of this voice [...]

It’s hard to believe its already been 54 games! Its been a long couple months without Manny’s hilarious attempts at defensive mediocrity, his bizarre on and off the field antics, and his constant refusal to cut the shit on his head he calls hair. But he was mostly missed for his offensive prowess that made [...]

That’s what the firing of Curry tells us.
Joe D. is on record earlier today as saying that he feels Curry isn’t the right man to lead this team back to where it needs to be.
I don’t necessarily disagree.
BUT,
The timing sucks.
This could have been done before the draft, heck, it could have been done on the Friday after it.
Doing [...]

The Donald has gotten more crap than any NBA owner, and let’s be honest, he’s deserved it. In the past he’s let decent Clippers walk for nothing, he’s refused to make offers to free agents, he’s tried to pay as little salary as possible because he could make more money by spending the minimum on [...]

Quick Bites today, I don’t have a whole lot of time unfortunately. Going to a concert with me-lady, so we’re going to be prepping soon.
- First, tonight’s matchup against the Nationals. I likely won’t be able to watch, but it should be an interesting game. Sean West takes the mound against Craig Stammen, as West [...]

Blogging about the Cavs this coming season might even be more entertaining than watching the games. Now that they have another huge personality with the team we should expect quotes (from the upcoming SI Magazine) like this for at least another year.
“Here’s my motivational slogan for next season,” said Shaquille O’Neal last Saturday by phone [...]
