Sports Bio

I once hit a home run in a Little League All-Star Game that was being broadcast on the radio. The announcer called it a "titanic moon shot".

I still have the ball.

Player hits for "home run cycle": Four home runs - a solo shot, a two-run, a three-run, and a grand slam. Not only that, but he hit them in order.

"Now that you, the American taxpayer, more or less own insurance giant AIG, : it turns out that you, the American taxpayer, are also the principal sponsor of Manchester United, thanks to a four-year, $100 million sponsorship deal signed in 2006. So this got me curious: how is our soccer football team doing?"

Yankees Win World Series

The Yankees are spending a lot of salary money, yes, but they do spend their money wisely considering the goal is to win championships and they've won 27 of them.

How much have the Cubs spent since 1908? How much did the Red Sox spend from 1918 to 2004?

ESPN's Steve Phillips caught in affair with 22-year-old production assistant

I don't think anyone's defending her, THX-1138. If this is true, what she did is pretty reprehensible.

However, to pile on because of her appearance is pretty juvenile.

Ufez, I'm with you, brother. You too, BoKnows.

NASCAR reveals names of first Hall of Fame class

Who would bother to visit a "hall of fame" with only five members, anyway? Unless you happened to be in the neighborhood already and they were only charging a couple of bucks it seems like it wouldn't be much of a value.

Limbaugh, Blues Owner Make Bid to Buy St. Louis Rams

Dave Checketts has always seemed pretty slimy to me, so I guess they deserve each other.

One-legged golfer Manuel De Los Santos

He sounds like quite a guy. I wouldn't even bet against him in an ass-kicking contest.

The Real Cost of the Ball Game

"My brother and I went to see a game there in May, and our lower box seats cost $42."

Well guess what, chump, you're part of the problem. Stop spending your money at the ballpark! Stop watching games. Stop buying MLB merchandise. If enough people tune out, maybe they'll get the hint.

/end wishful-thinking rant

SportsFilter: The Saturday Huddle

My daughter was at her high school's football game last night, and one of the opposing team's fans peed into a bottle and then threw it into the visiting team's stands. What the hell is the matter with some people?

Did Vick Break Reinstatement Deal by Drinking Vodka?

Is that a condition of his return to the NFL as agreed to with the commissioner? Because his supervised release form from the court shows he is only to "refrain from excessive use of alcohol", as seen here.
