While making his pre-game laps around Great American Ballpark with his trusty sidekick “Gapper” at the wheel, Mr. Redlegs took a spill off the back of a golfcart and literally lost his head.

With big hair making a comeback throughout “The Show” it is time to pay homage to one of histories great ‘do’s — equally fascinating and underrated — the afro. Grab those butterfly collars and plaid slacks ’cause it’s time to take a stroll down memory lane with baseball’s best ‘fros.

Bill James thinks steroids fueled the Twins’ two championships
Bill James thinks steroids fueled the Twins’ two championships

Crookednose Crookednose posted 4/4/2008 from www.bugsandcranks.com

Two of the greatest home run under-producers of all time were teammates: Kirby Puckett and Gary Gaetti in 1984. Puckett hit no home runs (-16), Gaetti hit only 5 (-19). Suggesting the possibility that the Twins’ two titles may have been aided by their team being among the first to discover…well, I’d better not go there. Nor will I point out that Gaetti was bald and had acne and Puckett died young.

In light of the recent multiple arrests occurring in professional sports, I figured now was the perfect time to take advantage and put together an All-Star Team of current and former MLB felons. I managed to fill a 20-man roster along with a Manager, 1st & 3rd Base Coaches and General Manager. Enjoy the abundance of criminal activity!

Not only have the actual Mets enjoyed a beating at Citizens Bank Park the past three days, now their fans are joining in the fun. In the ninth inning of last nights game (before Marlon Anderson secured the Philthie victory) some fans decided to take their anger out on Metro fans, who obviously don’t know how to act properly in someone else’s house.

We have here Gar, a 35 year-old father of 2 Los Angeles fella. His Stupid Human Trick is imitating batting stances. Except it’s not stupid at all, it’s AWESOME. He can do anybody. I particularly enjoy the first 3: Pujols, Edmonds and McGwire. This video is his Cardinals video, but there are others. He does the Red Sox, the Yankees and 80's...

The Cubs will make some noise this postseason, and the noise will say lots of the same things over and over again. Here's a survival guide in the form we know best -- a drinking game.

Yanks unearth Red Sox T-shirt, replace it with Kyle Farnsworth
Yanks unearth Red Sox T-shirt, replace it with Kyle Farnsworth

Crookednose Crookednose posted 26 days ago from www.bugsandcranks.com

Paranoid that a wily Red Sox fan had managed to curse his team, New York Yankees’ owner Hank Steinbrenner paid constructions workers to unearth a surreptitiously buried Red Sox T-shirt from beneath the visitors’ dugout at the new Yankee Stadium and had it replaced with the body of Yankee reliever Kyle Farnsworth, who’s been dead to Yankee fans for several years.
