of sports journalism criticism. It's not like the salad
days of sports journalism criticism, where all of the sports journalism was straightforward and sincere in its idiocy. Nowadays, it seems to me, the ...

Okay. So. "Costas Now." Tonight, I was interviewed
as part of that program's multi-part investigation of Sports

in Cincinnati. On one side: the Dustyites. On
the other side: common sense. Articles are being written
every day celebrating the folksy wisdom of a man who thinks bases are only good when there's no one standing on them. This is exactly what happened ...

We'll be talking about this one for months,
folks. NY Post me. A-ROD LEAVES ABREU HANGING Because
every move he makes is under a huge spotlight, Alex Rodriguez was asked last night why he doesn't shake hands, exchange fist knuckles or acknowledge ...

I would guess that something like ninety percent
of people still get consume all of their sportswriting
in the form of newspapers. (I mean, factor in old people and casual fans, right?) They wake up in the morning, pour themselves some orange juice,...

So, after a few conversations with various other
bloggers and like 28 minutes of low-grade soul searching,

It's a historic day. For years, man has
waited for just the right term to use when
insulting other men who love baseball numbers just a little too much. (What are they, gay for numbers? Probably.) And now, just like the wait for Shrek 3 , that wait is ...

At some point in probably like 1974 or
so, comedians everywhere, in a sort of collective unconscious

The Good News is: JoeChats are back !!!!!
The Bad News is: not really. Something has happened,
you guys. Someone, I think, finally stepped in and gathered all the ESPN interns together and said: "Attention, dummies. One of you, every week, is going ...

I want to point something out in the
quickly-becoming-tiresome Old Media vs. Bloggers debate: most stuff sucks.
All stuff. In all forms. Most books suck. Most movies suck. Most magazines suck. Most trees likely suck if you get to know them. Fish, ...

"Maybe you've heard -- Buzz Bissinger is in
the bloggy sports news ether today. Several people sent
us Buzz's piece on Kerry Wood in the New York Times magazine Play from about a year ago. I read the article from start to finish. It's artfully written, evocative, unPlaschkely poetic -- and deliberately, wrongheadedly misleading. Buzz Bissinger, such a gifted wordsmith and storyteller, weaves a..."

Hey, Bill Conlin just wrote an article about
Jimmy Rollins winning the MVP. Guess what? Squanto could
have written a better article. That's right. I said it. Squanto. (I know what you're thinking. You're thinking, can't I read just one ...

I was actually kinda shocked by this one.
Kevin Hench has decided to take some shots at
Rocco Baldelli on his " Hit List ." Baldelli has appeared in 127 of a possible 486 games the last three seasons. And — surprise! — he will begin this season ...

Several of you sent in this bizarro-world pearl
of wisdom from my close friend Tim McCarver during
today's Fox broadcast: "We had our friends at Stats, Inc. check and see whether more multi-run innings came with a lead off homer or a lead off walk. ...

The most vexing and confusing aspect of modern
baseball analysis -- and the primary reason we created
