There it is…here is what American League batters will see this year both at home and away for the Yankees…although I think the ballcap will not be as straight as this photo shows it. YES, the Yankees have landed C.C. Sabathia and by the looks of it we are not done yet. This signing is [...]

After months of being stuffed in the sports toy-box NFL Ned rears his ugly head and his stinky cigar to bring you his weekly NFL picks…I couldn’t help but bring him back…he e-mailed me from Maine lamenting on how happy he was that lobster on the docks up there is selling for a paltry $3.89 [...]

I could have made the Dodger logo smaller…but I didn’t want to. I can’t tell you HOW HAPPY I am for Joe Torre, Don Mattingly, and yeah…I’ll even throw in Larry Bowa because I like his fire at whatever he does. As you know I am a dyed-in-the-wool Yankee fan…but I hope the Steinbrenner boys [...]

The blog was idle yesterday, had some stuff I had to take care of. My sister lives in Sarasota, Florida…so I was kind of tied up tracking Fay through Tampa Bay Channel 13’s website.

It took innings upon innings… 13 to be exact…for the Yankees to finally WIN a ball game. I felt pretty confident that Halladay was goin to throw a great game…and he did.

The son-of-a-gun did it AGAIN! He gave you the Tigers and the Astros on Thursday against the money line. What has he done in 6 free picks?…Oh, not much…just hit 5 out of 6 for an 83% ROI for your wallet. I will update his cumulative record for you on my next post. I [...]
