Posted Friday September 28, 2012, About: The bartender in 'Groundhog Day' knew something

J-Biz: Good lead-in, but I think the "bartender" was ginning at Andie MacDowell. That job helped put him through Punxsutawney University Medical School, later becoming chief pathologist at Cook County Hospital in Chicago where he was completely outta' the Loop ("Say, whatever happened to that thing with your wife?").

Posted Wednesday September 19, 2012, About: Athletes you wish you could've seen in their prime.

Someone's gonna' have to buy my vote on this one. Sayers, Mantle, Ruth, who can choose? Josh Gibson, Ty Cobb, Sugar Ray Robinson, Emil Zatopek, young Ali, Patty Berg, Three Finger Brown, Jim Thorpe and on and on and on. One rule: no homer picks. The best of Fannation, MF.

Posted Friday August 24, 2012, About: Should we be suspicious of Derek Jeter's 2012 resurgence?

I think that was the easiest TD vote I've ever made: Yes, Marlins' Fan.

No innocent likes to be suspected. While I, most fans and Skip Bayless don't strongly-suspect Jeter, MF summed it up with these few words: "NOBODY is beyond reproach," nobody. Derek and his brethren must learn to accept this reality, without fear and animosity.

Players can thank themselves and their union lawyers who helped protect the users / cheaters for 20 years by dragging their feet on testing. And the MLBPA better get behind the mid-season blood-drawn proposal that was discussed months back. It's a no-brainer now.

Posted Saturday August 18, 2012, About: Rick Reiley is a hypocrite!

I didnt think anyone could be more smug on himself than Stephen A. Smith, then I discovered Rick Reilly.

Posted Thursday August 09, 2012, About: Bonds and the Hall... yea or nay?

I vote the majority, nay. But hold another Throwdown in 20 years and this vote-result could be reversed in favor of Barry and the yeas would have it. All those youngsters who grew up cheering for Barry and framed his rookie card will be the writers casting vote.

Posted Friday July 20, 2012, About: What would an All-Time team of NY Yankees look like?

Ruth wont need a reliever (those guys could pitch 20 innings, drink till 5 am, sleep standing up and pitch the next day). But better have hot dogs and cold brewskies for the 7th inning stretch. If you must have a reliever, gotta be the Goose (Gossage).

Posted Friday July 20, 2012, About: What would an All-Time team of NY Yankees look like?

Ruth pitches and bats, forget relief, Rickey and Curtis cover the outfield, Yogi behind the plate, Derek and Lazzeri infield, Lou at 1st, Mickey and Joe D. off the bench and Stengel handles the press.

Posted Thursday June 28, 2012, About: My All-Time Florida State football team would beat your school's All-Time team.

MF: Has anyone yet mentioned Florida State half-back, Burt Reynolds?
