Your Team Sucks Haiku Contest

Written by Sooze | September 29, 2009 | Comments Off | FanSided


Babes Love Baseball has teamed up with TBS Hot Corner to hold a contest to see who can write the best haiku for grieving fans whose teams are already or soon-to-be done for the 2009 season.

Be thoughtful or crass, sympathetic or sarcastic. We don’t care. We’re just going to choose the one we like best — from the comments section — and pick the winner on Monday, October 5th.

The TBS Hot Corner Prize Pack includes an Adidas Laptop Bag, a Nike Golf Longsleeve pullover, a sleeve of Nike ONE golf balls and a 16 oz. Tervis Tumbler. The BLB Prize Pack includes a BLB hat and t-shirt.

Okay, go.

Update: You win, Bassmaster. First, your haiku was fact-based. Second, it was not about football. Well done.

1. Denard Span, RF
2. Orlando Cabrera, SS

Storms Are Circling

Written by sfwyee | September 29, 2009 | Comments Off | Blue Man Hoop (Warriors), NBA

A few weeks ago, Stephen Jackson was in NY to help his Al Harrington out. He made some comments that obviously hurt the Warriors fans, and everyone from the management to fans, believed he was, “Jack being Jack. Flash Forward and you know that the NBA season is about to start when teams are attending [...]

Monday Night Memories: Antonio Freeman’s Stupid Rolling Catch

Written by Dan Zinski | September 29, 2009 | Comments Off | The Viking Age (Vikings)

Brett Favre made a lot of big throws against the Vikings during his Packers career, but none looms larger in our memories than the one he made to Antonio Freeman to win a Monday night game in 2000.
Chris Dishman should’ve had the interception, but instead deflected the ball to Freeman who was sliding across the [...]

Laurent Robinson Out for Season: Ram’s Grow Thinner

Written by Ethan Novak | September 29, 2009 | Comments Off | Ramblin' Fan (Rams)

Laurent Robinson sustained a leg injury during the second quarter of the Packers game this Sunday. Now when he went down the first thing that crossed my mind was “Exactly what we need, to be even thinner at the receiver position”. Well, my nightmare has come true as the Rams announced today that [...]

A day after basically admitting that the Cubs aren’t going to retain Rich Harden, Lou Piniella also indicated – again without saying anything definitive – that Milton Bradley has played his last game for the North Siders.
“Our general manager Jim Hendry had to do a tough task of sending [Milton] home [on Sept. 20], and [...]

Chuck Knoblauch: Wife Beater

Written by Sooze | September 29, 2009 | Comments Off | FanSided


I guess we sort of already knew that Chuck Knoblauch was a giant dickhead, but now there’s more evidence to support our theory.

The former big league infielder, who won a World Series with the Minnesota Twins before becoming a cheating New York Yankee, has been charged with assaulting his common-law wife. More specifically, he hit her in the face and then choked her in their Houston home this past Friday.

What a guy.

A judge set Knoblauch’s bond at $10,000 on Tuesday, but his attorney did not care to comment.

BLB Public Service Announcement: Domestic violence sucks.

I was able [...]
