I Keep On Trying To Get Back Into Baseball
(Preview)
But then I remember why I started hating it 10 years or so ago. Overpaid pompous asses and a league that lets its players do anything as longs as it makes money. Here is a nice video of Barry Bonds getting mercilessly booed in Philadelphia:

Hockey Is Finally Back
(

)
(Preview)
The NHL season kind of begins tomorrow. Sure, it technically started this weekend but everyone else starts Wednesday, and before the season starts I wanted to make my ham-fisted predictions for what promises to be an exciting year in hockey. While making my notes I realised just how evenly matched m...

Homer Simpson Night at PGE Park, 7.21.07
(Preview)
EA was kind enough to hook me up with some tickets to the Portland Beavers game last night, and we (Me, Joy, Oatmeal, and Joy's friend Tracy) had a damn fine time. Great seats behind home plate with a sweet view of all the action. The Beavers lost 2-0 to the Tucson Sidewinders, but it was well played game wi...

After years of talking about it, I'm finally doing it. Season starts in a few short weeks. Bought a bat (it's an Easton "X-Treme," Mt. Dew not included), and picked up some sweet Nike cleats at the outlets in Lincoln City for 20 bucks. I was whiffing for a day, then I got my timing back and now I'...

2008 Hockey Season

Biff, My dreams were finally reached today when I found a brief on my desk this morning for the 2008 Hockey Season promos on TSN and TSN 2. I almost had a t-minus 13 second ass piss situation I was so excited. The promos look like they're going to be pretty funny. Be on the look out for "Boardie Howe,&q...

I think it says a lot that after retirement Duckwo...

Our schedule looks gooooood this year. Whereas in years past our team had had to travel to the east coast and play 3 games in 4 d...

Baseball Is Finally Back

Barry Bonds is nowhere to be seen (yet), Smoltz and Glavine are back in Atlanta, and the Mariners have a great looking squad. It's shaping up to be a good year. -- Edited by Wockenfuss at 22:22, 2008-04-01

For those of us still in the Portland area, do any of you listen to John Canzano on the radio or read his stuff in the paper?
He gets mentioned every so often on the Timber Army message board and the dude is always slamming on soccer and the Timbers et al. But if that wasn't bad enough, he always seems to wan...

And under less than ideal circumstances, as usual. I think I had cashed out on wrestling by the time Benoit was a star, but I recognize him and know the name for sure. Said they found him hanging in his weight room. Sounds about right.

Fantasy Hockey Is For Nerds And Biff

So I finally broke down and joined a fantasy hockey team. I did this when I realized that, aside from having to take part in a one hour online draft, I really don't have to do much else. The computer does almost everything for you so I figured why not. My team is called That's My Five-Hole. This is the first w...

George Parros vs. Scott Thornton. Note that Parros, in the white, is sporting Yanni hair complete with the porn stache. By far the coolest enforcer in the league. From London, England. Enjoy.
