Proposal: remove player names from the jerseys
Over the weekend, I found Nate McMillan's reference to the adage, "It's amazing what you can do when no one cares who gets the credit" inspiring and motivating. It hearkens directly back to college basketball and John Wooden. It also makes a great deal of sense looking at the current composition of...
Nelson Cruz in for Torii Hunter = FU Figgy
Here's the latest: Texas Rangers outfielder Nelson Cruz has been added to the American League All-Star team as an injury replacement for Torii Hunter. This means Chone Figgins is left out in the cold and the only Angel on the All-Star team is Fuentes. What crap. Does this mean that Joe Maddon is...
Vote Manny All-Star
I was driving and thinking about the radio show I was listening to this morning, (the sports lodge). I started to think…. Hmmm…. Maybe we should all go and VOTE FOR Manny. Wait! Before you juge that thought, think about it this way, maybe if he gets voted in by the fans, Butt...

Montreal Canadiens cheating the vote
If you haven't seen or heard by now, the Montreal Canadiens have been cheating the All-Star vote with some shnazzy software program that they didn't mind openly discussing on a fan forum. For all it's worth, Dominik from Lighthouse Hockey and I are asking for an immediate move to Toronto, complete...
tickets 2009 all-star game
I've been reading VEB for a while now. Love the site. I checked the mlb site, but can't figure out when 2009 all-star game tickets go on sale. Does anyone here have more up to date info on when the tickets may go on sale? Thanks, third generation (at least) redbirds fan. Sorry, I realize this...
