Inside Man: A Bronx Tale: Bronx Banter's Alex Belth profiles Ray Negron. His life in baseball began in 1973, when Steinbrenner himself caught the teenager spray painting an "NY" logo on the outside of the Stadium and gave him a job as a bat boy. "Negron has done everything from shine the players' shoes and collect their dirty jockstraps, to bring them food from their favorite restaurants and park their cars. He has been an agent, an actor, an advisor, and a liaison; a confidant, a sounding board and a whipping boy to some of the biggest egos in the game. He is whatever he needs to be."

The event is something that transcends sports, but it is through sports and the rivalries that are present that respect and solidarity are generated.

The greatest un-rilvary rivalry in MLS.

SportsFilter: The Friday Huddle

Seems like everyone's on board for it or at least doesn't object to it, so I'll look into powering up the keeper rules today or over the weekend.

Crap. Didn't see the keeper league stuff. If that's the case, I'm out. Don't have the time to keep up with it.

If this means no more Michael Kay references to the "Old Jeff Nelson" then I'm all for it.

I was hoping somebody else recognized it.

It's from Golden Goal. The people that are also responsible for Electroshock Soccer. And soccer on a hill. And stilt soccer. And car curling. And... well, you can go down the YouTube rabbit hole yourselves.

Jets Fan Fireman Ed Hanging Up His Helmet

Maybe it's my Pats' homerism...

It's not. Nearly every Jets fan I know is sick of the schtick.

SpoFi Holiday Giving Project: One World Futbal

In. I can talk to the other board members of my club to see if they want to chip in as well.

WePay actually looks to be the same or lower than PayPal. PayPal is 2.9% + 30. WePay is the same as PP for credit cards, but only 1% + 30 for payments from bank accounts. It looks like if you set up a WePay Page for people to donate from it's a flat 2%.

RBNY @ DC United (as seen from the visiting supporters section). Plus video.

This game was supposed to be played at Red Bull Arena, with the second leg to be played on Wednesday at DC. But the venues were switched due to damage and power outages from Sandy to the area around RBA. It's still uncertain whether there will be PATH service (the subway line that goes directly to the stadium) will be running by Wednesday's game.
