The A’s are too depressing to watch these days. Sure, Giambi and Cust pulled through on Wednesday night when they needed to, but my boys are in last place in their division. As of Thursday, 32-43? Is that the best you can do? Whatever happened to the Oakland teams that would come to the plate in...

So it’s official, Kurt Warner isn’t just your run of the mill free agent quarterback, he’s Scott Stapp. For those who don’t know or have erased their memories of this God-awful (pun intended) band from their brains, Stapp is the lead singer of Creed. He’s also a guy who...

Residents of the Bay Area like to say how we live in the best part of the country, partly because it’s true and partly to convince ourselves we aren’t “dumb” like Jeff Kent said we were (more on that later).

In case you missed it, it’s March now, which means college basketball finally matters! I have to admit, I started out this season like a college basketball-loving freight train. I was doing updates on all the local teams, even ranking them. Then Patty Mills broke his hand at Gonzaga, and my college...

49ers roll out red carpet for Kurt Warne...
The Internets are all a twitter about Kurt Warner, because the 49ers look like they’re actually serious about bringing the formerly bearded one to San Francisco. Actually I probably should have worded that last sentence better, since Twitter is more commonly used for purposes like organizing pub...

I just want to click on the links all day! Sorry, I know that song is God-awful, but I’m trying to make a point here. All you happily employed workers (or unhappily, in which case you better quit your whining or you’ll get laid off like the rest of us), I promise you this. If you click and...

So we’re waiting…waiting for the inevitibable. Waiting for Manny Ramirez to sign with the Dodgers. It’s pretty much settled, isn’t it? Manny Ramirez loves warm weather, the Los Angeles lifestyle and all the glitterati. Even the paparazzi. And Fatburger. There’s no way Manny...

With the recession and the greatness of our wonderful economy, I’ve become much more of a frugal person. Looking for deals for anything and everything has become something I do on a daily basis. As BASG likes to point out to me, I love to plan things so instead of planning a Mexico vacation this...

Fantasy Baseball Rankings, Part 2: First...
When I first started collecting baseball cards in 1987, first basemen ruled the Major League landscape. There were six young surefire Hall-of-Famers at first (or so we thought at the time): Will Clark, Mark McGwire, Mark Grace, Fred McGriff, Don Mattingly and Wally Joyner. Hell, maybe even John Kruk...

Lamar Odom and I are quite similar, really. Not physically, since I’m not left-handed or 6′10″. Tony Randolph is however, and that brings us to what Odom and I share: ridiculously high hopes for Randolph, as seen in this story from Cam Inman of the Contra Costa Times: “It’s...
