Stop kissing Josh Hamilton’s ass. He doesn’t deserve all the praise and he certainly doesn’t deserve to be called a hero or a role model or a good influence. He was a complete f**k up, but because he’s can still play baseball better than almost anyone else alive we should praise him? No.
Yes, he was addicted to cocaine and crack for years. Yes, the fact that he seems to have made a full recovery is impressive (overcoming any addiction that overwhelms a person like that is impressive), but he’s not a great guy because of it. He should be working his way back to being an OK guy. Half a season of good baseball doesn’t clear him of all the bad sh*t he did before. Read More »

Corey Hart of the Milwaukee Brewers is leading the National League All-Star fan vote with David Wright behind by a mere 10%.
Being that the All-Star game is located in New York City and it’s only Wright right that D. Wright reps The Mets at the mid-summer’s classic.
Let’s harness the power of the Internet and get David Wright elected to the All-Star game via fan vote.
Visit this page on MLB.com and give D. Wright your vote, then pass the word along to 3-4 friends and ask them to do the same.

Like we predicted in our June 16th post Projected Winners of the 2008 MLB AL All-Star Fan Vote, it was confirmed yesterday that New York Yankees’ captain Derek Jeter was named to his ninth MLB All-Star team. Recently, many rumors have been swirling about “Mr. November.”
Did he wear Jason Giambi’s golden thong?
Did he hook up with 7 girls on Maxim’s Hot 100 list?
These are all questions Jimmy Traina of SI’s Extra Mustard had answered when he met up with Jeter for a little Q&A, and a lot more!

All-Star rocker Bon Jovi will be performing a free concert at New York’s Central Park on July 12th at 8PM to kick off Major League Baseball’s 2008 All-Star game celebrations taking place at Yankee Stadium on July 15th.
“All-Star Summer is set to hit New York City in a few weeks, and the lineup of festivities just added another future Hall-of-Famer in Bon Jovi,” said New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg.
“The free concert in Central Park is going to help make this year’s All-Star Summer a celebration to remember. The 2008 All-Star Game will pay tribute to the storied history of Yankee Stadium, and Bon Jovi will help us ensure it goes out in a blaze of glory — hopefully a blaze in late October.”
Tickets for this free event become available on Wednesday July 2nd at MLB.com.

If CNBC can project presidential primary winners with only 3-percent of the vote totals in, then we can also take advantage of mathematical impossibility.

Yesterday we gave you the Projected AL All-Star Team team and today we present the NL All-Star Team.

In every circle of friends there is a whore. Eric Clapton and Geroge Harrison had Patty Boyd, 80’s metal stars Tommy Lee and Bret Michaels had Pam Andreson (they have the homemade porn to prove it) and MLB in general has Alyssa Milano. To be more specific LA Dodgers Brad Penny and Russell Martin have Alyssa Millano. Brad Penny and Alyssa were dating over the last 2 years until that relationship ended and she moved onto Russell…. mmm sloppy seconds! Read More »

Lenny Dykstra stood at a staggering 5′10 and weighed in at 167lbs at the peak of his career. A small man to some, but a leader to all. Often referred to as “Nails”, Lenny entered Major League Baseball in 1985 and joined on with the New York Mets. It was evident he would be a force to be rekoned with and wouldn’t let his small size effect his level of play. This is a tribute to Leonard Kyle Dykstra, a true American hero. Read More »
