After last night’s 11-3 beatdown courtesy of all-time Yankee fan favorites, the Boston Red Sox. Because of the loss, the Yankees are now seven games behind the Red Sox for the AL Wild Card berth, and it looks like [...]

Not to take any of the thunder away from the Chicago Cubs and all that strange awesomeness going on at Wrigley, but the buzz around the MLB seems to be focusing on John Smoltz, Joba Chamberlain, and Pedro Martinez — and with good reason.
Pedro returned, Joba stunk and Smoltz might be done. In a [...]

Well, that didn’t last long. Billy Crystal made his debut (and subsequent retirement/release) this afternoon batting lead-off for the Yanks. After working the count to 3-1, it finished like this:

A group of men — some with Irish accents — beat up a 23-year-old Cambridge man and sent him to the hospital after they spotted him sporting a Yankees baseball [...]

Yes, Andy Pettitte addressed the media yesterday and it was about what everyone expected. Pettitte doesn’t consider himself a cheater, but if other folks think he’s lying and want to label him as such, he understands. From his perspective, it was always about trying to heal his body, which brings up an interesting [...]

Barry Bonds
It was a busy week for the sporting world, culminating in an adventurous night last night (Thursday, 11/15). Of course, the leading story was the federal indictment of Barry Bonds. Some people are claiming this was a witch-hunt on the part of the Feds and maybe it was. But if they [...]
