Hot! Hot! Hot!

Imagine it's 70* and cloudy out right now (try really hard!), but the forecast calls for around 80* the remainder of the week. Then imagine you're sitting in the bleachers watching the Nationals take the field for workouts. Then get all giddy that baseball playing is really about to start. Yep, those are our boys out there on the field in Florida warming up in the tropics! Photo of Ryan Zimmerman working out with strength coordinator Kazuhiko Tomoka, courtesy of ... Continue Reading

Trader Jim Has No Pants

It's official, Theo Epstein has returned to the GM role at the Boston Red Sox. I really think the gorrilla picture on that page is hilarious. He may have been in a huff when he left, but storming out in a gorilla costume is a classic! Anyway, this came as no big surprise after the news last week. The Natosphere is all a-buzz wondering when Jim Bowden will be replaced (after the lease, after ownership, but how quickly?) and more importantly ... Continue Reading

No, it's not yet time to break them out (wouldn't that be a treat!). My husband subscribes to Cigar Aficionado and handed this month's (December 2005) issue to me to read two articles. Heck, I didn't even realize the magazine had articles that weren't about cigars! GOLF: NEW ZEALAND NIRVANA -- The land of kiwi (fruit, birds and people) is becoming a golf paradise with two world-class layouts that meld sports and national spirit. SPORTS: THE GM REVOLUTION -- Youthful general ... Continue Reading

Spring training 2006?!

Posted on December 5, 2005 at 2:52 pm

According to today's Baltimore Sun (of all places for Nats news), that's when we can expect the national disgrace to name the Nationals' new ownership group. You've got to be kidding me, right?? All I want for Christmas is my Nationals to have a bona-fide owner. ... Continue Reading
