The Circus Leaves Town
And then he was gone. Manny Ramirez is scheduled to be in the starting lineup tonight for your Chicago White Sox (but for whatever reason wasn’t). When it was announced he was leaving Sunday evening (or as they call that in internet time “one billion years ago”) I’m sure you went through your own personal [...]
Tradition!!
So I’ve slipped on posting a bit as of late and here is why: I’m gonna be a Pop real soon. The wife is pregnant and due in a few weeks and much of my time has been dedicated to making my home baby safe. But something came up that had me quite disturbed. It [...]
Mannywood Up to No Good
It’s official: Mannywood is no longer. The infamous Mannywood sign and section down the left-field line, like the player it represents, is MIA at Dodger Stadium. Los Angeles opened its seven-game homestand Monday with a replacement John Hancock Insurance Company sign in its place. Fitting considering the liability otherwise known as Manny Ramirez is nowhere [...]
Butterfly Beach Snorkel Pics
Hey remember that thing called the sun that used to come out in the Summer? It would shine down and make stuff warm? Anybody remember that? Summer was always good times—I mean, top four season for sure. Instead we’re stuck with overcast days, offshore wins and cold water. These guys know what I’m talking about. [...]
BG Breaks His Legendary Silence On the 2010 Dodgers
Worst season ever. I really don’t want to say anything bad about the franchise that made me love sports but I hate everything about this season and now, thanks to a few ill-advised trades, I might end up hating future seasons as well. If you want a rundown of these despicable moves just click to [...]
Liquid Image Snorkel-Cam Review: BG vs. the Bat Ray
Due to an extreme lack of surf, I decided to bust out the Liquid Image Explorer blahblahblah snorkel this weekend. Eric from my softball team and I charged down to Hammond’s to see what we could see. The answer: not much. I did however see a pretty big bat ray that I swam right over [...]
ESPN’s Salary Crunch: Just in case you wanna feel like crap, and hate LeBron some more
ESPN just made us hate LeBron James even more. Meet the Salary Crunch, an EastSidePN.com feature that “breaks down statistics from his 2009-10 season and the playoffs to help translate his full salary” and pisses off all us poor fans who can’t even afford to attend an NBA preseason game. The app allows you to [...]
Live Show Review: Bad Astronaut at Velvet Jones
So I went to a Joey Cape show last night and a Lagwagon concert broke out. Music is of course very subjective but it’s safe to say that if you don’t get a renob from Joey Cape, Lagwagon or Bad Astronaut then you are retarded. The last time I saw Lagwagon was at the House [...]
LeBron Lied To Me
Ok, I was wrong. I admit it. I said LeBron had comitted to the Bulls, and in fact he went with Miami. That’s the last time I trust my sources. Of course, I sort of figured LJ would go to the Heat given that neither Wade nor Bosh had salary figures with Miami, suggesting their true pay [...]
Breaking News: LeBron to the Bulls! (And Dewey Defeats Truman!)
Ok, everyone I’m giong to make the announcement before anyone else: LeBron has picked Chicago! Congrats, Bulls fans. And good luck with your many future titles! Of course, we haven’t yet confirmed this. But we wanted to be the first — just like all the other journalists and faux journalists (a.k.a., “bloggers”) out there. And [...]
