Turns out . . . WE WERE ALL ONCE BABIES!!!

After winning 76 games over three season, Feller enlists in the US Navy on Dec. 8, 1941.

Direct from the sports desk at The Plain Dealer.

Gotta wonder whether Lee was turned off by the way the Yankees handled Jeter. Also interesting that Lee had some choice words for the Phils (happy they got beat) in the postseason, then takes way less than the Yanks or Rangers were offering to go back. Maybe he likes the Jersey Shore.

I never seen it, anyways. Bittersweet in that he still seems able to pull himself together, but deep inside he knows he's in a steep decline that he won't be pulling out of. Not on this earth.

Well, Cubs get Ivan DeJesus back, right?

I'm stunned that the cover was shot at a house in Haddonfield, N.J. Being from neighboring Haddon Twp., I can tell you "Blue Collar" is one thing Haddonfield was not.

sigh - i sprung for the amazon uk "limited edition" mono box when I missed the presale on regular amazon.

Better singer than actress. Guys like me like her because she plays parts where she's kinda weird, perhaps weird enough to dig me.

Olbermann is horrible. Dems are way better off without this smug, smirking idiot taking up their cause.

But that's just me.

Loved "A Short History of Nearly Everything", just read "A Walk in the Woods" which was rather lighter fare but perfect for reading on the DC Metro. Guessing this falls somewhere between the two.

Longest WS title droughts: 1. Cubs; 2. Tribe; 3. Senators/Rangers; 4. Astros; 5. Expos/Nats-Padres-Pilots/Brewers.

You're Justin Beiber?

So - will this help Prop 19?

MLB network guys now say they're not shocked Giants won. But go to the video tape of the night the Rangers aced the Yanks, and they were talkin' like neither the Giants or Phils had a chance vs. Texas. Come on, they had the 8th best record of the postseason teams, they were 7-4 postseason at the point, hardly an unstoppable machine. My theory: they were dazzled by any team that beat the Yankees.

Meanwhile, the anticipated union of Cliff Lee and the Yankees has hit a speedbump. Brilliant.

Correction: The DS will not be extended next season. It is being considered for 2012, as well as other playoff scenarios such as adding more wild cards (please no!).

Another step toward becoming a niche sport. They figure they can slap "playoffs" on a game and folks will pay top dollar, like the stupid interleague games (Indians-Pirates? I'm there!). Which is fine, as long as they don't care about the plummeting TV ratings.
