world series picks
the answer is quite simple: domino’s steak fanatic pizza and the fizzy, carbonated beverage (pop, not soda) of your choice. i can’t recommend an alcoholic beverage, since i don’t drink those. as for the actual baseball teams involved, it’s a tough call. i have no rooting interest here. on the one hand, you have the [...]
the $200 million meltdown
wow. steinbrenner’s wasted almost as much money as the government has this year. the yanks did take it to five games, and good for them. unfortunately for them, the long world series title drought continues. this is a good thing. yankee dominance makes their fans arrogant and obnoxious, as if they had something to do [...]

AL playoff-related hostilities this weekend
much can change in a few short days. the a’s are now out of the picture. too bad. i like watching that team. so now we are left with the white sox, indians, red sox, yankees, and angels. at the beginning of this whole preview, i was ready to put the yankees and red sox [...]
