It wasn’t Whiskey Joes…but Tampa STILL rocks

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla -- The game is over and there was no comeback tonight for the orange birds. A fourth-inning, six-run pounding laid on Orioles starter Steve Trachsel and a moon shot home run by Oriole callup Jon Knott...

Almost gametime in Tampa..

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla -- Since the game starts in a little while (and I'm kinda hungry), I'll keep this one brief. Sam Perlozzo held his pre-game chat in the visiting dugout here at Tropicana Field, and again stressed the...

Ahh…the memories of spring training in St. Petersburg FLA!!!

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla -- So, I'm here. On the ground, got a car, figuring out a hotel room -- the usual routine. I just drove 26 miles on the most gorgeous 80-degree you'll ever see through Tampa and into St....

On the ground in Tampa..

Well, this is my first "in-flight" blog. If you don't know it by now, I'm really enjoying this kinda work. It's been a really cool, fun week to write about sports whenever I want! I should've done this a LONG time ago. Right...

Today oughta be interesting..

With the Orioles on a rampage, I decided to fly to Tampa today to check out all the hullabaloo. The Tampa Bay Devil Rays have provided a media credential for tonight's game in St. Petersburg, and with a hundred hands...

Why I love baseball..

Sitting at home on a Sunday afternoon, watching the raindrops fall, watching bad movies and just about ready to make dinner. I flip through the baseball channels, see that the A's are hosting the Yankees on Comcast Ch....

PETER ANGELOS IS A GOD!!!!!!

For the record, Gary Thorne and Jim Palmer are keeping me imminently entertained. We honestly considered taking a walk over tonight, hoping to find someone to hand us tickets. My "no pay" policy is VERY firm…I bought tickets for their FanFest two weeks ago....

What would John Steadman have said about the Orioles in 2007

Still shaking off that horrible Preds loss in double OT, which was preceded by that horrible loss by the Orioles in the 12th. All that promise last night just led to a double whammy. Even my wife's team nearly got no-hit! It...

Puck

  Just sat down to watch some puck…had some enchiladas…yummy! Preds are down 1-0…went in off a skate. Man, I LOVE hockey. Just love it! (Preds are getting boned on penalties) The funny hockey accents. The energy of the crowd. The crazy rules and action....

Game on!!! Let’s pimp the puck.

I suppose the beauty of blogdom is that I can write about one of my true passions that it became harder and harder to discuss on the air -- because nobody cares much about it but me and Hockey...
