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 [...]
Dejected & rejected: A weekend of ejections in pro baseball
It was a weekend of objections, rejections, dejections and ejections around pro baseball. Manny Ramirez’s final AB in a Dodger uniform being a gem of a rejection, ejected after just one pitch (here’s the VIDEO proof). One pitch! That pretty much sums up his tenure with the Blue Crew. That sound you hear? That’s just [...]
The Circus is (almost) back in town
It’s July 16rd, 2009. You’re sitting in the Lower Reserve at Chavez Ravine on a warm Los Angeles summer’s night; bottom of the first inning-Furcal has reached on a drag bunt to the left of the pitcher, followed by the O-Dog ripping a hit-and-run single into right center (Furcal advancing to third).

Then once I [...]
MannyWouldn’t
I guess it was just a matter of time. While I wait for my FREE MANNY shirt to arrive (sadly they don’t have XS so I can show off my guns) I stumbled upon (ok fine, I followed a link on Alyssa Milano’s Twitter page) this site and apparently we are NOT alone in the [...]
Say It Ain’t So
What are we supposed to do about this? This isn’t the way it’s supposed to go down. Of course nobody ever admits to using a steroid (and if you’re Alex Rodriguez you don’t even know how to pronounce them) but geez, come on guys. I don’t even know what more to write. I appreciate Manny’s comments about all [...]
