This is what I was getting at on the Posnanski thread and the idea that there's finally a longform site run by someone who doesn't actively loathe sportswriting. Sportswriting is 95% grunt deadline writing. Yes, most of it is rote and far from transcendent, and that's fine. Gamers need to be...

As much SB Nation as Grantland.

Agree that it'll probably last two years, like most sportswriting start-ups. But it's nice to see a sportswriting longform site run by someone who doesn't actively loathe sportswriters.

Glenn Stout will weep and he will know why.

Williams & Ausmus were nothing short of awful this postseason. Williams impressed me during the season--thought he had the steady hand and direct but non-confrontational approach, i.e. with Harper, necessary for the long haul--so there's some hope maybe he'll be OK in the long haul. Ausmus, on...

Actually, I wasn't poking at you (#Facebook) this time. I was just being a snarky ass about the Tigers adding a third Cy Young Award winner at the deadline, and promptly winning zero games in the postseason. Dombrowski doesn't make many mistakes, but dumping Fister to free up money for Nathan...

No harm. If they're in the race in July, they can just go get David Price and punch their ticket to the World Series.

Haha I know. Tannenbaum reps Dan Quinn. CAN'T WAIT. Maybe Woody would be smart enough to entirely clean house, but I have extraordinary doubts about that.

If only there were signs in the pre-draft process that he was immature. John Idzik is going to finish sinking this ship, then get the chance to hire a new coach. Terrific gig, if you can get it (GM. not HC).

If only your Pirates didn't choke again. But don't worry. This is baseball. They'll be back again next year!!!! #ImATrollingDick

It was good to see the Angels go three-and-out again and for America to get another reminder of how terribly overrated Mike Scioscia is. Hi Poindexter! And how about that, Orioles vs. Royals in the ALCS. It's like parity has arrived in baseball, and everyone has a shot. Hi outofplace! *exits...

BYH's Big Fun is in. Anyone doing a picks league this season?

Likely auto-drafting, b/c it worked so well last time. I'm just being nice to you all after being so good for so long. Viva la Buck!

No.

Please tell me you didn't give my spot to anybody from Forest Hills.

Unbelievably sad news. Marcus was the sweetest, kindest man you'd ever want to meet. Here's an obit from Newsday: http://www.newsday.com/sports/marcus-henry-dead-newsday-sports-journalist-was-41-1.7590608 And the obit from the NY Dailiy News...

That's brutal. I don't think the topic of lineage has ever come up between me and my Dad. And if it did, I was the one who brought it up, more as a footnote than anything else. Adding to Rusty & ****'s thoughts: My parents had two kids. Their kids each had a child apiece. Wouldn't be surprised...

I'm sure it is, b/c the two of us farting looks better than Kirstie. But I only saw The Exes once or twice. Just not very good. One of those sitcoms that probably passed muster in the '80s, but is just too dorky now.

I haven't given it much thought re: the rareness of being content at one, but I suppose you're right. My sister and brother-in-law got divorced a few years ago, and during therapy intended to try and salvage the marriage, it came out that my brother-in-law wanted at least two kids and my sister...

Re: RIP Wayne "Newman" Knight One of those brutally awful TV Land original comedies where ex-NBC stars apparently go to die.
