Sports Information
Favorite MomentTalking with Frank Robinson for two hours about all kinds of stuff, lit out of my gourd.
Worst MomentLosing a championship game on a catcher's balk when my manager made me intentionally walk my good friend on the opposing team whom I knew I could easily strike out to send it to extras.
Favorite AthletesOn the Field - Evan Longoria: He is a badass.

Off the field: Carl Crawford: because he talks more than I do.

Least Favorite AthletesDon't hate anyone. Strongly dislike the way the media and fans treat the myth of Derek Jeter and the legend of Kobe Bryant but could probably hang out with either of them and still find a way to have myself a good time (especially if they're paying!)
Other Information
MoviesI learned everything I needed to know about the internet watching the Labyrinth.
TVIn this order: MLBTV, Burn Notice, the Simpsons, Scrubs and the Weather Channel. MLB for about 2-10 hours a day and maybe 3 hours a week of the rest combined!
MusicI make my own. Hundreds and hundreds of songs.
BooksEver heard of this Hunter S. Thompson guy?

Also the Tao te Ching, Anything by Joseph Campbell, the Bible, Tibetan Book of the Dead, the fine works of Christian Ratsch, Alexander Shulgin and Aldous Huxley.

Video GamesI watch my kids play their DS and have little time anymore for playing games myself.
MagazinesHave written freelance for a few; mostly travel and lifestyle mags. Hope to write for more in the near future. NOT about sports, however.
SnacksIf I am what I eat, I am "way too much".
DrinksFrequently; esecially when singing/performing karaoke and/or open mic nights.

Thanks for the Kudos! I appreciate the rec; I know that people will be passionate about their squads, so, I tend to go in with that knowledge and let things run their course. However, I appreciate your taking the time to let me know that I did a pretty good job, so again, thanks!!

Final warning and you're banned for a week.


And for the record there is no possible way I'm Heywood. Try again, gumshoe.

If you're going to continue to start (or respond to) crap then you'll be banned again.


Yes, it's a warning.


From the vitriolic public messages, to the Heywood and Al Jefferson trolls, you have to stop the nonsense.


We've done our part by banning umpteen number of the Jefferson trolls and whomever those other guys are. And we've banned HJ twice. Don't say you're getting the short end of the stick.


We've warned. We've banned.


It's up to you.

I'm not talking about what you've said, just in general, you help make AGM look like another crappy sports messageboard with grown men hurling 12 year old insults at each other. So next time HJ pops up, don't respond to him, actually ignore him instead of responding to him with a 500 words about how much you're ignoring him, and maybe, just maybe, he'll go away.

If the message was just for him, why not utilize the handy dandy message feature?

And also, take your own advice and stop feeding the trolls. If you know who HJ is, just announce it instead of insinuating it, and stop allowing him to hijack threads by playing his game. I'm not blaming you for HJ's bullshit, but you do help turn his molehill into a mountain and it ruins threads and makes AGM look like just another two bit sports messageboard with people calling each other "turd" and "homo."

Just don't generalize about soccer fans when you don't know a single one. But if you insist on doing so, don't do it in a comment on a BASEBALL article. Okay? Thanks!
