A little house-keeping… I’ve added a link to a great bay area sports site: The Bay Area Sports Machine. Check it out!
I’ve also been working on my pictures… feel free to take a look here.
Bill Plaschke is a big dummy. Why write anything else about it when Junior over at Fire Joe Morgan does such a great job?
The Red Sox players noblythreatened to boycott their Japan-trip in support of coaches who wouldn’t be paid for the trip. Lost in the Boston love-fest are several items that should be noted:
Not one of these generous millionaires offered to give up a penny of his $40,000 for a coach.
The proposed boycott included the team’s final spring training game… so, screw you average-joe fan who paid $30 for a ticket.
BOTH regular season games in Japan considered home games for the A’s? So… Oakland gets two fewer home games in ‘08, while Boston gives up nothing? Call me crazy, but wouldn’t one home game a piece be the obvious, fair solution? Poor Boston.
