Razzball 2009 Baseball Hall of Fame Ballot
January 11, 2009 | Hall of Fame Nominations | 1 Commentby: Rudy Gamble
While ESPN gets 11 Hall of Fame ballots, Razzball doesn’t even get one. Perhaps our invitation was forgotten by the same voter who forgot to add Rickey Henderson to the ballot (but remembered Matt Williams)? Anyway, here is my ballot. Click on the player names for my analysis: Yes: Rickey Henderson, Tim Raines, Mark McGwire, […]

December 26, 2008 | Razzball Interview | 5 Commentsby: Rudy Gamble

Please, blog, may I have some more? The Player Rater Rater (Razzball v. ESPN v. RotoTimes)
November 24, 2008 | Player Raters | 8 Commentsby: Rudy Gamble
As some of you know, we developed our own Player Rater methodology called Point Shares about a year ago. Since then, it’s been one big poontrain….zooming past Statgeek Station.

November 19, 2008 | Fantasy Baseball Writers League (Brock4Broglio) | 9 Commentsby: Rudy Gamble
It’s easy to look back at a league you just lost in and come up with several ‘What ifs’ that would’ve led your team to victory. I’m going to take a look at one of my expert league teams that sucked it – coming in 8th out of 12 in a league set up by […]

November 11, 2008 | Uncategorized | 4 Commentsby: Rudy Gamble
Razzball doesn’t really follow basketball. The closest thing we’ve had to a basketball post was our interview of Spike Lee. But it’s the offseason so why not. Figure it may be our only chance to get some link love from The Sports Guy. I’m in San Francisco for a week and there’s a big fuss […]
