I thought I’d take the time to reflect upon my favorite baseball players. The only rule I’m using is that I had to watch him play and remember him, so any Big Red Machine players are out. I’m sure I saw Johnny Bench play as a child, but I just don’t remember. 10. Paul O’Neill. I never real...

Attorneys for Barry Bonds on Wednesday made a defense filing that their client's gigantic skull and tiny nuts should not be entered into evidence at his perjury trial.

Not only is Bud Selig going to suspend Alex Rodriguez, (maybe ... perhaps), but he's going to reinstate Hank Aaron as the all-time leader in home runs (if he can find his pen).

In case you missed it, Alex Rodriguez allegedly tested positive for steroids in 2003.  Since he will probably hit 800 home runs in his career, it seems appropriate to compare A-Rod to Hank Aaron as Richard Justice does for the Sporting News. To those of us who love the game, the Hall of Fame is...

Flotsam and Jetsam Miscellaneous thoughts and observations. Had dinner with a New York Giants season ticket holder last night and he's convinced that free agent receiver Anquan Boldin will be a Giant next season when all is said and done.
