Any year the Yankees don’t win is a good year for Baseball....

Ha. The Orioles haven't had a .500 season since '97. But Camden Yards is a pretty stadium.

"But know this, that in the last days perilous times will come: for men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, unloving, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, brutal, despisers of good, traitors, headstrong, haughty, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, having a form of godliness but denying its power. And from such people turn away, for his name is Obama."

During the playoffs, there is no such thing as a 5-inning victory with a rainout. All playoff games must go a minimum of 9 innings. If there is extended rain, the game is suspended, and it picks up where they left off —the next day or whenever the weather permits.

The only teams never to win a World Series are Washington (ex-Montreal), Seattle, Tampa Bay, Texas, Houston, Milwaukee, Colorado and San Diego.

This is what the Yankees got this year from Alex Rodriguez of $32,000,000.

99 games, 373 at bats, 103 hits, .276 average, 16 home runs, 67 runs, 62 RBIs, 4 stolen bases. Maybe he should give about 90% of that back or send it in to the IRS to help pay our debt.

Apparently, CJ Wilson of the Rangers is hot for Olivia Wilde. At least that's what the announcer said. My guess is that some FReepers are also hot for her.

Well, doug, we couldn’t have 8 winners, could we? But it could also strengthen the suspicion that the fix is in, with MLB trying to spread the joy for strictly monetary reasons.

I'm a proponent of the Yankees winning most of the time and also a proponent of the Red Sox never winning!
