Who wants to do a TwinkieTown Movie Night?
There are many different things to write about in the World of Baseballs, or, in bigger terms, the World of Sports. There’s the fact that the boring mega-payroll Dodgers just ousted the fun, also mega-payroll Phillies from the playoffs. (Ben has you covered.)

Rival Roundup, Vol. 68

After saving all their runs for late in game two, it appears our beloved Phillies were really saving all their runs for late in the series. With their backs […]
North Star Stature Showdown: an OOTP tournament
Early in the season (I can’t remember exactly when), someone in the comments (can’t remember who) brought up the idea of a tall vs. short Out of the Park tournament. Now that the Twins season is over, it’s time to make that a reality. With many thanks to whoever came up with the idea, we […]
