The Hall of Oppression
Why is the Hall of Fame so important to people? Was someone not a great player because they didn’t get into the Hall of Fame? Drew Pearson didn’t make it into the Football Hall of Fame for decades; was he any less of a player? No, he was not. And there are plenty of…

Woke With Purpose
Did you hear that Rob Manfred, our chief social engineer in baseball, and the man who will destroy baseball, has decided that records from the Negro Leagues and Major League Baseball will now be combined. A few of the Babe’s records will now be taken away from him. How avant guard. How politically correct. How…

Aaron Judge and Legacy
Soon Aaron Judge will break Roger Maris’s home run record for the Yankees. Some are touting it as the real record for home runs in a season – 62. They believe that Barry Bonds is not the true owner of the major league record for home runs in a season – 73 – because he…

Ruining Baseball
I told you before that Rob Manfred would ruin the game of baseball. It’s only a question of how quickly he can ruin it. Let’s see how long it takes. The latest effort by MLB is to test market home run derby as a means to end games more rapidly. Rob and his buddies apparently…

Rob Manfred, Puppet
Well, I knew Rob Manfred, being a Harvard graduate, would ruin baseball. I just thought it would take him longer than this. There’s no place for politics in sports. None. Apparently Rob Manfred, the dopey commissioner of MLB, doesn’t think so. Rob Manfred, as you may know, recently made the decision to move the MLB…
