Tonite’s feature: Kings Ransom.  Details Gretzky getting traded to the Kings back in the 80s.

The First ‘First Pitch’, if you will.

He came out wearing an ugly pair of jeans and almost bounced the ball in front of the plate.

This is my President?!?! I’m sorry President Obama, but you’re just gonna have to stick with basketball.  I’ll take W’s strike throwing arm for my Presidental baseball fantasy team anyday of the week.

Unfortunately, people are idiots and don’t use common sense when bidding.  Once I’m done my exam, I’ll be working on optimal stategy theories so I too can score a Macbook for $35.
