I linked to this in a thread yesterday but I got chopped so I'm not sure how many people saw it. Anyways, its a really, really sweet Willie Mays article. And everyone needs to read it.

And neither pennant winner, Texas nor San Francisco, built on their championships, both spurned so far by the big-money free agents. Texas lost on Crawford and Cliff Lee, while the yet-unsigned Beltre said no to overtures from the Giants. http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/commentary/news/story?id=5947975

"I never got to sleep," Chris Lincecum said. "At 6 o’clock the next morning, I was still up. I remember every now and then, I’d be walking down the hall and just go, ‘Yeah!’ It really struck me: he just won the World Series. He won two of the four games. I’m still floating." New York Times

I didn't realize they were "free agents"...I think we would all agree especially after enduring the post seaon national broadcasters that this is a very good thing.

Lowell Cohn should think about hanging it up.

If you can make it through this dog, I think you'll agree that it's terrible.

Ken Tremendous Speaks of the Fired Joe Morgan

Q: FireJoeMorgan.com was obviously was a big part of your life for a while, and you finally got your wish. What'd you think when you heard about it? A: Well, you know, honestly, it wasn't really my wish. And I think I speak for the other guys who did the site. We never, after a very, very brief amount of time, we realized that we had named our site incorrectly. Because it wasn't really about Joe Morgan. He obviously came to represent a certain kind of person in baseball, a kind of announcer who preferred traditional, old-timey ways to the new-fangled ways. But you know, I've been asked to comment a lot about him being fired in a way that suggests... people assume that I would be gloating or something. And I don't wish any... we never wished any ill favor to the man. We never wanted anything bad to happen to him. That's why it was a terrible name for a website. It really didn't represent what we were trying to do.
