The Jon Singleton story is a fascinating one because it resonates so much for me. As it probably does for many others. It is a story of losing one’s way. It is a story of being young and dumb. It is a story of maturing, finding calm and peace so that things makes sense now. […]

Click HERE. Now sing this: Hello, it’s me. I was wondering if after all these years you’d draft me. To put the past aside. They say that time’s supposed to heal ya, but I ain’t done much hitting. Hello, are you still there? I’m in Los Angeles of Anaheim of Alhambra of Artesia dreaming about […]

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 […]
