My Pittsburgh friends will be happy. My Canadian friends, not so much. I generally only watch the finals anyway.

If it wasn’t for these thinly veiled racist hot-takes, would anyone really be paying any attention to Schilling? Does he possess some insight into baseball or sports in general that you couldn’t get from a garden-variety sports talk shut-in living with his alcoholic aunt who calls in daily to the afternoon drive time…

Hugo Black did.

Reconstruction also wasn’t on front burner for Northern business. Everyone just wanted to get on with things and that didn’t include justice for the former slaves.

Who has time to put something on banana bread? That shit comes out if the oven and it’s gone before you can turn the oven off. If someone happens to give me some they made earlier, it’s gone before anyone can get anything to put on it.

Maybe there’s a trade in the works. I hear the Braves’ AAA affiliate is looking for a thumper.

It must have been something to be in New York in the days when there were 3 teams playing baseball within a few miles of each other. I think it’s great that there are those that keep the memory of those years alive.

So Tim Tebow is playing pro ball in the minors and Ryan Howard isn’t. Baseball is a funny thing.

It’s not easy facing your own decline and mortality, especially on a public stage.

Gerry Callahan is the other guy watching it.

You got to protect the plate.

In all fairness though, that was probably Ortiz running at a full speed.

The fact that Callahan is even on the air and has the number of listeners that he does, should tell you all you need to know about a significant portion of Boston sports fans.

Pinky Higgins!

You wouldn’t happen to be a fan of some NL Central team, would you?

I also have non-binding indications of interest in lots of things. It’s called the Amazon wish list.

That would still he paying too much for the Marlins.

Also agreed. I remember being taught to charge those balls and sweep it with your glove in foul territory to keep it foul, assuming that the runner would be running hard. This is more Longoria’s laziness for not running it out than Machado making a great play.

This gets the Celtics off the hook.
