Dingers, Manfred Men, All-Star voting, rubbing balls, outrages, the two obs, and what I did on my Tuesday evening.
Oh, Canada, goodbye Sergio, hello Ender, After Jackie, another stadium scam, free speech, Squawkin' Sports, deceptive appearances, and a guest post.
Dane Dunning, slick balls, big debuts, notable injuries, Old Hollywood, gritty 1970s Hollywood, material desire, and rare first editions from a guy who killed a clown
Rob Manfred wishes kids in the D.R. would stop exploiting themselves, the New York Times wishes writers at The Athletic would stop living in reality, and the worst person you know did a good thing.
Another near no-no, A.J. Hinch is on a quest to find the real pitch-changers, and we talk about antitrust, dirty laundry, mascots, capitalism, God's Plan, and a strange disappearance
A near-no-no, Dane Dunning, streaming soccer, misguided musicals, some tough injury breaks, more horror show Ohio politics, and peace via whiskey and schnapps.
John Angelos says the O's will never leave Baltimore. A broadcaster was retaliated against for reporting a sexual assault. Also: Skynet, cruelty, and the myth of urban crime.
My Detroit Weekend
The Angels finally win, there's a big lawsuit in Baltimore, Tony La Russa is never wrong, just ask him, I give law students a heads-up about an exam question, and I get VERY mad at someone.
Dane Dunning, Packy Naughton, All-Star balloting, our mass hysteria when it comes to crime, calling Republican's mental health bluff, and smokin' a bit of the dilly weed
Joe Maddon gets the axe but the Angels keep losing. Also: M's and 'Stros suspensions, more on the Rays Gay Pride fiasco, political messaging, Saudi golf, and the jasmine in our minds.
A cycle, clearing benches, a lengthening losing streak, some snappy uniforms, bad old tweets, Wal-Mart money-as-savior, Nancy Reagan, and 18 wheels a-rollin'
