A-Rod Adds Another Agent
I really did not want to get involved in the whole nasty A-Rod divorce. It is not our business to dip into such topics around here; I was going to leave it to sites like Deadspin to make sure that the public knew every place that Rodriguez took Madonna. But then came word that A-Rod’s…

Book Review: Change Up
When it comes down to it, there is no sport that I enjoy or know more about than baseball. A large reason for that is that I grew up with a father who was and continues to be a passionate New York Yankees fan (you have to remember that the Florida Marlins were not around…
