Our fearless baseball predictions

Each of our writers gives their picks for the baseball playoffs, after the jump.

No more talky, talky….

The preset AM buttons on my car go just like this: Sportstalk/Sportstalk/Sportstalk/Sportstalk/News. And the only reason the last one is news is because I need to get the traffic occasionally. That said, I hate sports talk radio.
Why does any host insist that he can fill up three hours without a co host? Is it ego? [...]

Red Sox-Yankees: The three game report

First of all, this is April baseball. It doesn’t mean much. Christ, the Orioles started the year at 6-1 and they were still leading the AL East last I checked …does anyone think they’re going to finish higher than
4th? Of course not. In fact, this should be the year that the Devil Rays overtake them [...]

Getting out the marshmallows

The firewood is ready, the lawn chairs are set up, and the marshmallows are out of the bag, as we await the release of the George Mitchell report in about 14 hours. Personally, I can’t wait.
Already, the major players are prepping themselves for the bloodbath. ESPN is going live with full televised coverage at 1:00 [...]

A-Rod getting advice from…Warren Buffett?

Incredibly, we may have investment mogul Warren Buffett to thank for the cessation of the 24-hour ESPN A-Rod Watch. According to a recent report on CBS Sportsline, the Berkshire Hathaway founder was contacted by Rodriguez, and Buffett advised him to go around agent Scott Boras and contact the Yankees directly. This led directly to the [...]

Rockies Ticket Blunder: A Delay In Gouging Red Sox Fans

Ok, this is the second time this year where I’ve wasted part of a day trying to buy tickets online … only to be greeted by the screen of death informing me that the server is taking too long to respond to my request.
The first time around, it was TicketWeb’s fault; they didn’t realize how [...]

Time To Gouge The Red Sox Fans … And The Evils of Ticketmaster

As some of you know, Rockies’ World Series tickets will go on sale at 10 a.m. Mountain Time (West Coast people, that’s 9 a.m. your time … East Coast people, that’s noon your time).
As a resident of Boston (ok, Allston), I am encouraging all of you to snatch up tickets for games 3, 4, and [...]
