You know, just writing that makes it clear, I have no dog in the Senior League this year. These are the two teams I hate the most. I can’t stand to watch either of them. If you must the Dodgers are my least favorite team because they’re traitors. The Braves are Division rivals and I …

2018 Senior League Division Championship Game 1: Rockies @ Brewers
Ugh. I can hardly describe how indifferent I am. The Rockies and Brewers are 2 teams from minor markets that I rarely even notice. The Brewers will send forth Brandon Woodruff (R, 3 – 0, 3.61 ERA) against the Rockies’ Antonio Senzatela (R, 6 – 6, 4.38 ERA). Three days of agony at least, when …

2018 Junior League Wild Card: Athletics @ Yankees
Ok, so my beloved Metropolitans once again did not make the big dance and the underdog Cubbies (108 years folks) have disappeared from radar. Is there no hope for the widow’s son (Richard was alive and kicking 10 minutes ago). Oh, those guys in the Bronx. What were their names again? That’s right, Damn Yankees. …

Class Traitor
In case you don’t get it by now, I’m very White and very privileged. It may seem on these pages that I spend my life apologizing for it but the truth is not so much, I mostly hardly notice and just accept my state of grace. I do sense that from a standpoint of fairness …

Who Needs Mueller?
That is, if the Corporatist Media would just do their job. We knew Trump was incredibly corrupt. Turns out he may also be an epic tax cheat. By Paul Waldman, Washington Post October 3 2018 “Only the little people pay taxes,” said a New York celebrity real estate figure in the 1980s. It was not …
