in Welcome to October Baseball on The Launching Pad
Howdy, Mr. Baldwin!!

As you know, I am in Cardinal country, but my father was born and raised on the South side of Chicago, so I will be covering the Chisox throughout the playoffs.

As far as what matchup I want to see in the World Series...as long as it is two "original 16" teams. I am sorry, I have a hard time thinking that the Rays can make it, and I don't want to see it. I couldn't stand watching the "effing fish from Florida" win two times in the past decade or so. I want old school teams in there!!!!

in Why 8 Cyber-Bullying Teens Are Already Sentenced to a Life of Reputation Incarceration on Marketing Pilgrim
@Geoserv - I do not know if it is getting worse, per say. I think it might be getting more awareness. My Aunt, in her sixties, went to Catholic school as a child, and was repeatedly "corrected" because she was left-handed. A lady I work with, also in her sixties, told me she had nightmares for YEARS with what she had to go through while in Catholic school, including a scar on her left hand that she still has this day, due to her also writing with her left hand. Bullying comes in all forms.

I went to a school district that was and still is, one of the top districts int he state of Texas. But it was also had a high rate of violence. I had a classmate get attacked at lunch, from two other kids, FROM ANOTHER SCHOOL!!! He ended up having major knee surgery from getting stomped repeatedly on it.

This happened in 1989. Twenty years ago.

I hope that nobody thinks this is an isolated case. Don't think for one minute that this doesn't happen in school bathrooms, gym lockers, etc. The only difference is that THIS was recorded. I am glad that this WAS recorded, so that there IS evidence of a horrible beating. My heart goes out to the girl that was on the receiving end, but I hope justice is served for this.

in The Rockets’ winning streak is a little deceiving on Kevin Rossen's Blog
I know this is a little after the fact, but I just found your site...

I completely agree with you on your post. I still do not see them being able to hang with ANY team that knows how to slow the game down to a half-court game and prevail.
