The Daulton Varsho Trilogy has been an entertaining one, full of ups and downs, laughter and grief, expectations and disappointments, birth, death, and resurrection. He made his MLB debut in 2020, showed enticing promise in 2021 with 11 home runs and six stolen bases in 315 plate appearances, resulting in a top 100 ADP heading […]

Saint Nicholas of Myra was also known as Nicholas the Wonderworker due to the many miracles attributed from his prayers. He is also legendary for his secret gift-giving, which was the genesis for Santa Claus. Nicholas Castellanos has often been a Wonderworker himself, belting 34 home runs in 2021 with 100 RBI and providing 29 […]

I used to love GI Joe. I watched every episode of the cartoon and had many of the toys and figurines. Oh, the innocence of youth. I watched an old episode for s***s and giggles recently. Man, what a terrible show. I am embarrassed for young Son, but that is life. We must experience crap […]

Last names trip me out. Some were given for an occupation back in the day. So, a blacksmith was named Blacksmith. But he would have had to been the first blacksmith, no? What if his son wanted to be a farmer? Talk about putting one’s family into a box. What about Beaver? Did someone in […]

Sequels often suck and end up disappointing. But why? Maybe all the creative energy used to create the OG left nothing for future endeavors. Many could just be money grabs to mine the popularity of the first. Heightened expectations may not satisfy no matter how good it is. Whatever the reason, we have become cynical […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?There was a time when I’d watch ESPN Sportscenter all day, all night, even though segments would repeat over and over and over and over again. Was it the highlights? The amazing announcers they had back in the day? The commercials? Definitely a combination of all three but the commericals were top notch. C’mon! How […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?When thinking about Razzball, I immediately fall to my knees, throw both arms out to the side, and tilt my head back ever so slightly in order to take in the rays shooting out from the whiskers of the one, the only Grey Albright. I have no doubt that he employs Sal Goodman for all […]

This Son is the dog at Razzball. Not the glamorous dog that saunters around at dog shows or gets to be in commercials. Nope, this dog dumpster dives. And Razzball is the perfect place because Grey is a lover of dogs. Bow wow wow yippee yo yippee yah. Laura Holt is the deep league specialist. […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Life is filled with so many certainties: death, taxes, and Grey dreaming about Adalberto Mondesi. Life is also so unpredictable. We like to box it in like a Choose Your Own Adventure book, but we are neither a phone booth nor Moses Malone, so life finds a way to keep us on our toes. While […]

I have many fond memories of playing Little League. I made an All-Star team and played in Dodgers Stadium against a team from China. Or Taiwan. I forget. Looking back on it, I did lead the league in Little League home runs (bunt, overthrow at first, run to second, make my way to third, overthrow […]

I bought a new house about a year ago. It was a fixer and needed tons of work. We hired a guy to do the big stuff while the wifey and I DIY’d/Mickey Mouse’d the rest. While we became proficient after many reps, yelling and sweating, the difference in skill between us and the hired gun was Grand Canyon-esque. As it should be. Now, my wife’s dad worked in construction for decades, and he flew out to lend a hand. I took some video of his skill:
A true professional he is. And vastly underrated. As is Kerry Carpenter of the Detroit Tigers. If you need power, this Carpenter can help you build upon the foundation that you’ve manufactured up to date.

Hollywood has always loved the story of the ugly duckling blossoming into a swam – Mean Girls, The Princess Diaries, Miss Congeniality, Clueless and She’s All That. And why not, because we are all suckers for it. Personally, I like to think that I’ve grown into something suave over the years. *Looks around* Sees that I’m writing fantasy nerd stuff from my mom’s basement. *Sobs* Yes, I’m the sucker. For fantasy sports, we all know who the sexy mofos are. Every once in a while, though, a player gets hot, makes a change to the approach, and becomes very enticing. I remember this girl in high school, who wasn’t anything special, but then I saw her wearing a dress and all done up, and she looked mighty fine. It was that girl who I thought of when I dug into J.P. Crawford of the Seattle Mariners. Is Crawford actually hot or is it just the makeup? Let’s dig in.
