If he has a Basketball Hall of Fame speech being auctioned off, that could start at $25. It was such a moving speech that he must have written it longhand.

METaphor is the appropriate pun for this play!

All hail the next George Blanda! He should change is name to Chad Dieceyseis.

Notice how Rice took swipes at two Yankees and a former Red Sox superstar. I guess David Ortiz doesn't make the list of people who may have disrespected the game.

And now playing quarterback for the Loins...and starring in his own personal "Girls Gone Wild" video...Matthew (Don't Call Me Matt) Stafford.

Good to see Whitlock doing "research" for his columns. At first, I thought it was Ruben Studdard!

Nilan could have been more macho, like stealing a hunting knife from The Sports Authority.

When people are ready to go out to the strip club, Phelps is all ears!

Please read my poem, "Ode to the Mets: Oh NO, Castillo" on bleacherreport.com. Thank God for Fernando Nieve!

I'm glad to see the Sir Charles continues to dignify TNT broadcasts with his dry, sardonic wit. He continually impresses me with is extensive vocabulary and professionalism. Mr. Barkley harkens back once again to the days of Jack Whittaker and Jim McKay.

e should have at least asked to sing the national anthem or throw out the first pitch at the next game...throwing it to coughlan.

Whitlock v. Francesa...in the steel cage, with Dana White putting it on PPV! I'd pay to see that! The loser permanently shuts up!

Jason Whitlock makes me proud to be only 20 pounds overweight. Now if his heft as a journalist only matched his sumo-like body...

Is Kinsler the first Jewish player to hit for the cycle? Must have been happy to get all the matzoh out of his system.

It seems like "Paradise Lost" for Milton. He should never have mispronounced Fukudome in front of Vanover.

I love the Mets because the owners have the audacity to plan a farewell to Shea AFTER the Mets have a deja vu moment against the Marlins. Wes Helms, that prodigious slugger...my son really wanted to stay to watch the farewell after the fade. I also love the Mets for having the most confusing ticket pricing system…

Ty Lawson will be teaching a course on craps at Findlay next year.

with a washed-up Roger Clemens and Theo Ratliff, I'd go for Cutler, too!

And she wasn't even a Madoff client.

Did you ever notice that Billy Packer and Andy Rooney are never in the same place at the same time? Maybe he plans on hiring a psychic to find the Madoff billions.
