Le Anne was responsible for my very first story going to print and thus, in some way, responsible for my career since my lone clip for a while was this NYT Back Talk piece. Her edit showed me the possibility of journalism (she didn’t change a lot), but most of all, she was incredibly kind and supportive. I could never…

Gleyber Torres would most likely play SS in playoffs with Walker at 2nd.  This is what they did when Didi out earlier. 

you done Canyonlands wrong.

Limiting the numbers of shifts is stupid. Just make so the SS has to be on his side of the bag or even with second base and prohibit the 3B from lining up on right side of infield vs a left-handed bat. It’s a bit like the old illegal defense rule in the NBA (which granted for the NBA sucked). But I want to see…

that’s Missoura

He probably shouldn’t be good. He’s not that fast or quick. He baits opponents into fouls and flops a lot. Still, no doubt he’s a HOFer. He could average Curry/Iverson type PPG if he went that route.

In 20 years, 22 players will gather to recreate Demba Ba’s comminuted fracture.

Joe Cole, the player Carlo Ancelotti once called a “genio”. How the mighty have fallen but still manage to collect a check.

La la la Chelsea!

Yeah, he sucks. Sports specifically his whining to David Stern cost the Lakers Chris Paul so he has a particular place in hell for me.

You don’t have to wait:

A country of 330 mil and we can’t produce one world class player? I don’t expect a Messi or a Ronaldo. But we don’t even have a Rooney or a Robben. Even Iceland has Sigurdsson. Argentina had more talent on the bench last night than the US. Lamela was a sub. Aguero didn’t even play. I don’t think Dempsey even touched…

It’s CHA-vez Ravine, Vin. Not sha-VEZ. How many years have you been at this?

Perhaps by VORP he was not the best player in the league, but that’s not the award the L gives out every year. It’s Most Valuable and I still contend the second year Nash won MVP (05-06), the Kobester was by far the MVP. He averaged 35 ppg and willed a team that had Smush Parker, Kwame Brown and Chis Mihm to 45 wins.…

what’s the shit all over his hoodie also? not steeze

Theme song totally rocks. It’s got a little early Green Day to it (“whoa”). The theme song is the most important selling point of any kids show. Doc McStuffin, Jake, Wally, Bubble Guppies, you name it. Theme song has to hook you. Or at least the parent.

I said it’s great to be a Florida gator.

was this ever a question? Durant, Westbrook, Curry are top five players in the L (top 3 in PER). Klay is a great shooter but he’s not even top 20 in PER.

Met someone who told me her cousin plays major league baseball: Oh yeah, who, I asked?
