We just don’t have anybody on staff that is particularly interested in cricket. When Rohan was around he’d do some stuff on it or tip Burke off to video of some crazy cricket shit that happened, but that’s about it. Burke and I are vaguely into it—we’ve each written a couple of times about cricket deaths or crazy… Read more

I’ve got a couple of cans of Three Stars Ghost White IPA with my name on em, and there is some sort of New Belgium in the fridge too. Read more

Considering he wasn’t on the team in 2015, that would point to 2014 being the year of the Denorfia bobblehead. Read more

I’d love to hear thoughts on why people think the Braves pulled the trigger. It isn’t an atrocious or indefensible trade, but it does seem strange to me. Read more
