only the chosen few appreciate ambrosia. For that is what black jelly beans are. The baseball Gawds made them black so the Heathen Dodger fans would be less likely to defile them.

I’d have to go with buttered popcorn as worst ever.

However, the worst candy ever goes to what’s called a Dropje (pronounced dr-O-pee). It’s a Dutch candy that’s black licorice flavored and is very salty. Some of the nastiest crap you’ll ever eat.

That being said, these are the greatest thing known to man, courtesy of the Dutch.

From Schulman about an hour ago

Premature Posey-ing?

As John Shea writes in tomorrow’s paper, the Giants are hopeful they can sign first-round draft pick Buster Posey by tomorrow’s 9 p.m. PDT deadline.

However — as much as I hate to contradict my friend and colleague Andrew Baggarly at the Merc — two major-league sources have told me today it is categorically untrue that a) a deal with Posey was done, either verbally or on paper, and b) the Giants were prepared to give Posey $7.5 million.

At least that was the case as of late this afternoon.

If I get more info tonight, I’ll update the blog.

If they are putting out the word this late in the game that they aren’t prepared to pay Posey his price, then this might not get done.
