“groovy mother...”

Great piece by Bill Simmons on the decline of the Large Father. FWIW, I don’t think Papi’s current decline is a sign of stopping using a banned substance — Why would he stop now? Nothing has changed in MLB testing over the last couple of years.

Great piece by Bill Simmons on the Manny-being-juiced revelations today, and what it means for the Sox 2004 curse-bearing World Series win.

Outstanding (and lengthy) article by Bill Simmons about the end of the Manny era in Boston. Sums up everything I felt about the whole affair — that it stank to high heaven, and I miss Manny as a player. I wish him all the best this postseason, and pray he doesn’t become a MFY next year.

Bill Simmons, American sportswriter, goes through an in-depth investigation to decide upon an English Premier League to support this season. A great read.
