Writer who snubbed Pedroia gets attacked on Boston radio (AUDIO)

Wed, 19 Nov 2008 06:49:30 +1600

Evan Grant spends a good 20 minutes getting screamed at by Boston sports radio hosts. I gotta hand it to him, I probably would've hung up at some point.

Meet Evan Grant, your resident MVP-voting moron

Wed, 19 Nov 2008 00:19:49 +1600

As I’ve said on numerous occasions, I think individual awards like the MVP are crap, because every sportswriter comes up with their own definition of “most valuable.” That’s fine, really. I have no problem if someone doesn’t think that Dustin Pedroia is one of the 10 most valuable players in the Ame

Even in a down year, A-Rod more valuable than any Rays

Tue, 18 Nov 2008 21:12:43 +1600

The league’s baseball experts have spoken, and Alex Rodriquez was more valuable to the Yankees’ non-playoff team (their first since 1993) than any Tampa Bay player was to the Rays’ first postseason appearance in team history.

The Great Debate: Should Pedroia or Youkilis Win the MVP?

Tue, 18 Nov 2008 15:02:52 +1600

OK, Alex. I have a pretty good idea where you're going to be coming from in this debate regarding whether Kevin Youkilis or Dustin Pedroia is more deserving of the American League MVP. You crunched the numbers. You wrote your stories. You sang karaoke at Youk's wedding.

Erase Stephon Marbury from the U.S. Olympics Record Books?

Wed, 20 Aug 2008 15:50:34 +1700

I want the US to win gold in Beijing as much as the next guy, but there’s one other goal that I believe deserves Coach K’s attention. Getting someone to score more than 31 points in one of the next two games. The reason? Stephon Marbury. With his 31 points in a game against Spain back in Athens, Marbury currently holds the record for Most Points in a Game in Team USA Olympic history.

Kaczur Talks About Incident

Mon, 4 Aug 2008 14:23:35 +1700

Embattled offensive lineman Nick Kacur gracefully agreed to meet with the media this afternoon, much to my surprise when I asked if he was available. Speaking for the first time since his April arrest and subsequent court appearance for possession of a controlled substance, Kaczur faced the media after practice.

Will Manny Ramirez get booed at Fenway Park?

Fri, 1 Aug 2008 01:42:06 +1700

I can’t see it happening, although if you listened to any talk radio in beantown today you might think otherwise. Fans seem to be choosing one extreme or the other. You’re either really pissed at the antics of the last few weeks (although most of you ignored the stuff that continually went on over the last 8 years) or you just love Manny and can’t believe he’s gone.
