I assume that Harvey did this to avoid every journalist in this city devoting their next 10 months of columns to telling The Mets that they had to get rid of him. That Matt Harvey doesn’t “get” New York like you and I do. He doesn’t deserve the privilege of playing in front of you, and that you shouldn’t waste your Read more

Here’s the odd thing about this team - all too often, writers would say “wow, great moves for this small- or medium market team”. Fuck that, this is a BIG market team that for some reason hasn’t flexed its muscles until the last couple of years. It’s the 7th largest Metro area in Baseball, and 3 of the metros ahead of Read more

When I keep showing up to The Undefeated happy hours, when I pull you aside to give you unsolicited advice that goes directly against what the new boss says, and when I keep showing up to the meetings ‘just to, you know, stay in the Read more

I mean, I saw Skynyrd before the crash and Led Zeppelin, too (i’m old as hell), but at least for today i’m gladdest to have this stub, from when I saw Flair vs. Rhodes for the big gold strap. Damn!

I got married a month ago. My brother- my best man- asked me on gchat how long he would have for a speech. I told him 5 minutes, give or take. He responded: Read more
