Cliff Floyd has now made his mark. Floyd hit a shot to center that barely got over the wall for a walkoff 2-1 win. He’ll probably have to go on the DL now after running the bases and getting beat down by everyone when he got home. Some notes from the game.
James Shields got [...]
The Tampa Bay Lightning seem to be caught in a whirlwind of strange crap right now. The new ownership group headed by Oren Koules are giving a weird vibe with some of the stuff they’re doing. They apparently orchestrated the questionable Brad Richards/Mike Smith swap. Now there are rumors flying (out of Canada first again) that Barry [...]
I couldn’t make the Rays game tonight because I was stuck in Wesley Chapel doing my continuous education crap so I’ll get to bloggin. The Bucs have finally gotten RID of a QB instead of signing one by releasing future Hall of Famer Bruce Gradkowski. I think they have cut the number of QB’s [...]
There are a couple things to reports on here. The first is that Michael Pittman has signed a one year deal with the Bronco’s. Exciting right? Now on to the big news. Gaines Adams has a bad habit. What you ask? I don’t know. You need to check out Stephen Holder tomorrow to find [...]
First thing to say here is that the players on the field are getting it done. All the credit in the world belongs to the guys on the field doing what needs to be done. No doubt about it. I am getting very frustrated with our idiot Manager now though. It seems at the [...]
In some sad news from over the weekend former Buc OL Thomas McHale and Ray SP Jeremi Gonzalez have died. McHale, who was an offensive lineman for the Bucs from ‘87-’92, was found dead at a friend’s house and the death is still being investigated. The police are not suspecting foul play. McHale, 45 at his [...]
Who would’ve thought that as late as Memorial Day, your Tampa Bay Rays have the best record in baseball? Not just the A.L. East or even the A.L., but in all of Major League Baseball. This is crazy! I would’ve never thought it but its’ here. This has prompted me to start looking at certain [...]
Off the subject completely here but damn Kobe’s good. I have no opinion as to whether Kobe is better than Jordan because I loved both of them, but damn this guy is fun to watch. This is where I get frustrated with the media hype of sports today. Jordan was and is a degenerate [...]
The Rays shut out another team tonight behind some nice pitching and defense. The defense is the main reason for the improvement of the pitching staff this year in my opinion and it’s time I gave some guys props for the work they’ve put in.
Matt Garza is almost as unpredictable as Edwin Jackson [...]
According to Jason Stark of ESPN, Major League Baseball is finally considering using replay to review Homeruns calls and fair/foul calls. It’s about freakin’ time! This all comes on the heels of the Umps blowing two calls in New York this week and they are now willing to test replay in the Arizona Fall [...]
For all of you crazy people that think the Celtics will go to the NBA finals you better think again. The Celtics are going to get mauled by the Pistons. This is going to be the year we visit the old days of the NBA, it won’t be the Lakers-Celtics days though. It will [...]
After a weekend series in St. Louis there are still some problems that need immediate attention.
The baserunning is terrible. There are still way too many mistakes being made on the basepaths that are unforgivable. There is no excuse for the mistakes that are being made. It would be one thing if they were just [...]
I’m back tonight but will be watching the Rays. I’ll recap the weekend and get back to work tomorrow after my nice little vacation.

The Rays lost a tough one tonight 2-1. There were a few things I took from the game and the aftermath in general. Here we go..
Regardless of my bitching about the fans not showing up, there are more Rays fans in the park. Well not really regardless but this is it. There were noticeably [...]
The Magic were beat again by Detroit 91-86 and the short run is now over. At least they didn’t get swept again. I didn’t watch the game tonight because the Rays have attracted my full attention but I assume that Rashard Lewis was still a bitch and the rest fell into place. From the [...]
The Rays won again tonight in an extra inning thriller that ended with Jonny Gomes scoring on a Gabe Gross single. It seems all the stars have aligned for the Rays in this run. Ed “no decision” Jackson pitched lights out tonight and even though Percy blew this one the Rays came back and [...]
Anyone else just find themselves watching Family Feud with the guy from Seinfeld? What the hell is going on at ION?!

Finally got some Bucs news for the football junkies.
Veteran DE Greg Spires who we all remember abusing the Raiders in the Super Bowl season has left the Bucs to sign with…. you guessed it, the Raiders. Spires signed a one year contract after being released by the Bucs this off-season. Spires was never [...]
