First of all, congratulations to Colin Cowherd on his sitcom development deal with CBS. I’ve never had the pleasure of listening to Colin on the radio for more than a few minutes at a time, but from what little I’ve caught of his endearing shtick, I’m sure he’s got the right attitude to be as […]

Just like in 2007, they got chumped by the Phillies. Again. Then they signed K-Rod and even traded for that J.J. […]
Continue reading →Let me set the scene for you. You’re an up and coming sports franchise that’s coming off an awful, terrible year. Flop after flop after flop. Maybe not flops as bad as Popeye or Ishtar, but close enough to give you some palpitations and night sweats — something like Jade or Silver, let’s say. Real stinkeroos. But […]

I know we haven’t talked much since that, um, incident in the airport with the key and the schadenfreude, so I’m trying out this AWESOME new technology that’s all the craze with the kids […]

With the decline of performance in many superstars that admitted to taking steroids (like Boston’s David Ortiz and Manny Ramirez), we have proof that The Steroid Era is finally over. But as with anything that has a lasting impact, we […]
Continue reading →It is a shame when the court of public opinion turns upon and unfairly passes judgement on our fellow man, as was the case a few years ago with my prospective client and St. Louis Cardinal star outfielder Rick Ankiel. It is even a greater shame when these missed opportunities force the shuttering of such […]

We were able to secure this illuminating write-up from Mr. Powers during the early days […]
Continue reading →Better late than never, here’s the first of what hopes to be a thirty-part series called The 2009 Inaugural Jockish MLB Preview / Post-Preview of Baseball Things & Stuff (AKA our ill-timed 2009 baseball preview).
