That's because I don't have much of a stake in either team, beyond a mild dislike for the Yankees, and having a gonzo cartoonist/tattoo artist friend from Philadelphia. So I'm pulling for the Phillies, but when they lose a game I'm able to let it go by the time I climb out of the recliner to fetch a post-game barley pop. As...

Starter Dae-Eun Rhee tossed three perfect innings and Dong-Yub Kim ripped an RBI double and an RBI triple, but it wasn't enough to overcome a nine-run Angels 4th, as the Halos drubbed the Cubs 10-5 in Arizona Instructional League action at Diablo Park Field #3 in Tempe this afternoon. Although he did not throw his killer splitter-change today, Rhee had good movement on his fast ball and was also able...

It's been a miserable year for the economy. One year ago today, Lehman Brothers Holdings announced it would file for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection. After that, the economy fell off a cliff, or it entered a tail-spin, or the excrement hit the fan; I'll leave it as an exercise to the reader to select her/his own metaphor. I'm as much of an armchair macroeconomist as the next guy, but for a while there...
