Button, Button
I’m thankful to the Almighty Tweet Gods™ for snatching the @wilkins handle from a Twitter Ghost and giving it to me: the man formerly known as @rwilkins. Thing is, I can’t shake the feeling that my need for across-social-network continuity just made an innocent stranger vaporize into a black mist, like something from a Twilight Zone episode.

CNN.com | David Frum: "I was wrong about same-sex... →
Two thoughts about this. 1) It’s a good thing when any new person, no matter who, can come to see the fundamental rightness of something like the legality same-sex marriage. 2) David Frum can go fuck himself. Seriously, fuck himself in the ear, because he’s an asshole. Frum, as you might remember, is a former speechwriter for President George W. Bush, the supposed author of...

The Perfect Storm Reaches New England
Six points I’m allowed to make in public about Boston’s most recent free-agent acquisition … 1) Not all players experience the same aging pattern. The average aging curve for outfielders who are A) above-average hitters, adjusted for park and league effects, and B) derive a high percentage of their RAR-based value from baserunning + defense through their age-28 season...

eBay Item #130461892284: Carvel Ice Cream "Black... →
Donated by Patton Oswalt and currently priced at $710 on eBay, the Carvel Ice Cream “Black Card” (probably earned by his “Tom Carvel” bit from Feelin’ Kinda Patton) entitles the owner to a lifetime supply of Carvel ice cream, valid at any U.S. Carvel location. If we assume the bidding reaches as much as $1000 by next Monday, that means you’d need to claim only...

I'll Take This One
Frankly, I’m a little surprised that more baseball writers with reality-based inclinations aren’t defending Lincecum’s 14-strikeout 2-hitter as a more dominant start than Roy Halladay’s admittedly masterful no-no. I think there’s a decent case to be made, and I’m afraid that the deafening silence reflects a reluctance to really go to the mat for an idea...
