This is gonna hurt. And since I am a lifelong New York Yankees fan, this is gonna hurt REEEEAL bad. But my job as a sports blogger dude is to give credit where credit is due. The 2018 Boston Red Sox was not only obviously the best team this season, they could easily be ranked…

World’s Quickest 2018 MLB Playoff Preview: LCS
Hmmm, looks like the Division Series in both leagues turned out as I expected. How fun. At any rate, on to the League Championship Series… American League Boston Red Sox vs. Houston Astros Predicted finish: Astros in six National League Milwaukee Brewers vs. Los Angeles Dodgers Predicted: Brewers in seven
The Yankees Will Be Just Fine
Those who know me well know just how emotionally I am in my beloved New York Yankees. And even though those damn Red Sox were far and away the better team than my Yankees, it hurt too damn much to see my squad go out like that. In four games. It didn’t even get to…
Shame on Brewers Fans for Josh Hader Ovation

The 13-12 slugfest featured nine home runs (NINE!), and the coolest part was it went into extra innings. Major League Baseball’s brass should be basking in…
The World’s Quickest (and Most Insightful) 2017 World Series Preview
I must say, this has been one of the more exciting MLB playoffs in recent memory. The defending champion Chicago Cubs defeated the chronically underachieving Washington Nationals in the NLDS. The Los Angeles Dodgers ran roughshod in the National League playoffs, including winning in a “gentleman’s sweep” (5 games in a best-of-7 series) over the…
