Major league baseball has become a lame, tame, boring, who cares sport. The National Hockey League laughs loudly at Major League Baseball. About the only thing that is remotely interesting is when you have these “fights” that erupt all too infrequently.

Let me set the scene for you… The Washington Nationals were taking another ass beating, this time courtesy of the Florida Marlins. Chris Volstad, who hit Nyjer Morgan with the pitch last night throws the ball behind him in this clip. Nyjer obviously not happy with the blatant disrespect that just happened, charges the mound and hilarity ensues.

Check the sadness here…

That was one punch and a lot of grab ass. Much like the sport of baseball, I rank this fight LAME!

I have a simple equation that Baseball should follow.

Home Runs = People care. Home runs = The only reason people talk about baseball.

No one cares for pitcher domination. Which by the way is what happens in this sports when you do not allow player to JUICE UP ON STEROIDS AND HGH TO HIT NOTHING BUT HOME RUNS!

These fights are more fodder to show that this sport as the joke that it has become. Major League Baseball is most definitely on the decline. The 1/3 full stadium that watched this “classic baseball fight” couldn’t even muster up loud booing. Pathetic. Everyone in the stands should be ashamed of themselves.

Hey Baseball… Here’s what a sports fight really looks like…

Look at these animals in Philly… This is what kicking ass looks like. Normally I despise Philadelphia. The city’s sports teams, its people, its location on the map of the United States but, here they are beating Canadian ass. That trumps any hatred I have for the slow moving, open mouth breathing dolts of Philadelphia. THIS IS WIN WIN WIN!

F U Baseball… F U for all that you have become.

RECOGNIZE!!!

Troy Polamalu, Badass.

Usually I leave a snarky comment but I’ve seen what two time Super Bowl Champion Troy Polamalu is capable of on the field so I’ll leave it at, “Here’s the new head and shoulders commercial featuring the always bad ass Troy Polamalu.”

Golf sucks…

Lenny from Indy — Wed, 01 Sep 2010 13:04:17 +0000

…and it causes fires… check this shiz-nit out… apparently a California wildfire was sparked when a golfer trying to hit a ball out of the rough struck his club against a rock, fire officials have said. 12 acres of land burned by the Shady Canyon golf course in Irvine, California. By the Shady Canyon golf course… BY IT! THAT MEANS HE HIT A ERRANT BALL INTO A ROUGH PATCH BECAUSE HE LACKS GOLF SKILLS AND STARTED A FIRE! A FIRE BECAUSE THIS JERK OFF SUCKS AT GOLF.

The answer is clear people… death penalty for this schlub.

Sad truth about this terrible golfer here.

Tantrum at the ballpark!

Stone Temple Vanilli!!!

Look… if I had to play a rock show in Cincinnati, I too as well would give my voice the night off and lip sync as well. However, you make the call music fans. Can the singer of the rock band Stone Temple Pilots fall off of a stage, in the middle of singing and still keep the same pitch and key?

My vote leans towards lip syncing.

The Walking Dead debut is on Halloween!!!!

Lenny from Indy — Wed, 25 Aug 2010 15:15:10 +0000

What could be better than on Halloween a premiere of an Original Series about zombies based on the fantastic THE WALKING DEAD graphic novel?! It’s directed by Frank Darabont (he did the Shawshank Redemption and The Green Mile). Your answer is ABSOLUTELY NOTHING! Finally something worth watching on TV that isn’t a live sports event.

Baltimore…A lot less murder(y)…Somewhat cooler now.

Lenny from Indy — Tue, 24 Aug 2010 14:49:55 +0000

When you think of Baltimore, Maryland what comes immediately to mind? Murder. The incubator city for the Colts. Murder. Cleveland Browns disguised as purple birds. Murder. It’s near the sea. Murder. A terrible baseball team and murder.

However, it turns out that American composer Frank Zappa was born in Baltimore. I know… he escaped being murdered. Good for us!

This changes our thoughts a tad on the city of murder. I’m of the belief that Frank while not the inventor of music, most definitely perfected the art form.

The people who haven’t been murdered yet in Baltimore made it official. They will have a day to commemorate the birth of Frank Zappa. Frank Zappa Day! RECOGNIZE!!!

A full weekend of events to take place in Baltimore (city of Murder) on September 18-19, in support of the City’s dedication of a sculpture to legendary musician, composer and social icon, Frank Zappa.

As part of the celebrations, the Mayor’s office will issue a proclamation moving ‘Frank Zappa Day‘ to September 19, a date significant because it marks the anniversary of Zappa’s 1985 testimony on Capitol Hill in favor of free expression by recording artists at the Senate hearing instigated by members of the PMRC concerning censorship and record labeling.

In addition, the stretch of Eastern Avenue between Conkling and Eaton Streets in Highlandtown will be marked ‘Frank Zappa Way’ with a ceremonial street sign to be unveiled for the dedication. Most of the events, including the outdoor dedication and free concert, will take place along this stretch of Eastern Avenue in the heart of the Highlandtown Arts and Entertainment District. Fresh off an international tour, Frank Zappa’s son Dweezil and his band Zappa Plays Zappa will headline the concert on Sunday afternoon.

The events are being produced by Clearpath Entertainment in collaboration with the Zappa family, the Southeast Community Development Corporation, Enoch Pratt Free Library and the Creative Alliance at the Patterson, in coordination with Baltimore Office of Promotion and the Arts on the dedication ceremony. The schedule includes:

Saturday, September 18th

2pm- Free Open Dialogue with Gail Zappa, Pratt Library Southeast Anchor Branch (3601 Eastern Avenue, Highlandtown): Frank Zappa‘s wife Gail will speak about topics ranging from freedom of expression to the place of the library in society, and just about anything else the audience wants to engage on in a free-form open Q&A format. Space is extremely limited – contact the library for reservations at ckleback@prattlibrary.org.

Sunday, September 19th

12pm- Free Outdoor Concert begins, intersection of Eastern Avenue and Conkling Street, Highlandtown, opening lineup to include Baltimore-based experimental rock ensemble Arbouretum and more to be announced

2pm- Dedication Ceremony, intersection of Eastern Avenue and Conkling Street, Highlandtown

3pm- Free Outdoor Concert continues, intersection of Eastern Avenue and Conkling Street, Highlandtown, featuring: Dweezil Zappa and Grammy Award-winning Zappa Plays Zappa

7pm- Doors Open for the ‘Arts District After Party,’ the Creative Alliance at the Patterson (3134 Eastern Avenue), featuring: Big in Japan and Telesma, food and bar available onsite

Although the dedication ceremony and the concert are FREE to the public, special VIP passes for the concert are available at www.MissionTix.com (keyword Zappa), providing access to a reserved viewing enclosure close to the concert stage, talent meet-and-greet, and other fan incentives.

Transportation and Parking:

All are encouraged to use public transportation to the venue on Sunday. There is Free street parking available throughout the neighborhood on Sunday as well as a private lot that will be made available for free parking on the SE corner of O’Donnell and Conkling Streets. Use of MTA and Downtown Circulator buses is strongly encouraged.

Accommodations:

For information on hotels, dining and all other local accommodations visit www.visitbaltimore.com.

Hopefully no one will be murdered on these great days.

Chelsea Baker future New York Yankees pitcher

Lenny from Indy — Mon, 23 Aug 2010 12:46:03 +0000

Chelsea Baker, once a student of former major league pitcher Joe Niekro, last week donated the jersey she wore to pitch one of those special games to the Hall of Fame in Cooperstown, New York. The jersey will be part of an exhibit dedicated to the importance of women in the sport, according to the museum.

You’ll have to put up with a terrible CNN talking head but Chelsea @ 16 can throw a mid 60 MPH fastball. I can’t wait for her to make it to MLB.
