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…

Tiger Woods
Hey, did you hear about Tiger Woods? This is the new national obsession. How about this one? I don’t care more about Tiger Woods than I would anyone else, and neither should you. As a matter of fact, you should go out of your way to not care about Tiger Woods. Why is that? Because…

She entered my consciousness today when I read that she had dropped out of competition for the upcoming national championships. The article talked about her recent treatment for depression, anxiety…

Letter to LeBron

Phonies, Paint and Sportsmanship
Lately there is talk of Bibi of Likud, President for Life, rushing to the peace table because he fears a three front war against Gaza to the South, Syria to the East and Lebanon to the North. This seems not credible. With vast superiority of weaponry, Israel should fear no one. The US will not permit Israel…
