Sweet Uncle Lou’s Friday Roundup: The “.500 Again?” Edition

Hello, kids! I’m all giddy today, because I’m getting ready for our three-game sweep of the Cardinals, now that they lost THE MOST IMPORTANT PLAYER TO ANY TEAM IN MLB HISTORY. I hope you guys have picked a different Cardinals player to standing ovate this weekend. If you haven’t, may I suggest Todd Wellemeyer? He [...]

Sweet Uncle Lou’s Friday Roundup: The “How Do You Like Us NOW?” Edition

You panicky little nerds. Do you feel better now that we’re only a half game out of first place? Does it bring you joy to see us win four in a row? Are you wetting the roomy crotches of your pants after the bullpen actually managed to string together some outs? Are you ready to [...]

Friday Night Fukudome: Roger Clemens vs. Brian McNamee

You’ve read the stories (or you haven’t). You watched the hearing (or you didn’t). You’re hoping Clemens gets enough rope to hang himself with enough left over to tie Schilling to a railroad track. The only problem is that the guy who’s handing him the rope is only slightly more believable. Both of these guys [...]

Friday Night Fukudome: Barry Bonds vs. Roger Clemens

After Roger Clemens’ utterly ridiculous denial of his alleged steroid abuse (It took you THAT long to come up with the exact same story Tejada came up with, Roger? Really?), I got to wondering whether Clemens has usurped Barry Bonds’ long-held position as my least favorite baseball player. Bonds: Was once made to look a [...]
