On eBay this week...
You will recieve on (1) ... Cy Young Cleveland Naps 8x10 Photo ... PERFECT FOR AUTOGRAPH
you will "recieve" "on" and if you don't know how many "on" is, you have it in parentheses to be sure (1).
Anyway, your Cy Young Cleveland Naps 8x10 Photo is PERFECT FOR AUTOGRAPH!
By who?
Cy Young died 53 years ago, you idiot. Am I supposed to go to the Peoli Churchland Cemetery in Peoli, Ohio and dig him up? And if I did, if I clasped a pen inside his disintigrating hand and scribbled "Cy Young" on the photo, would it count as an authentic Cy Young autograph?
And on the "Official Cy Young Website," you find this:
Did you know?
Major League Baseball's "Cy Young Award" is named in his honor.

Alex Rodriguez in the Playoffs...
Alex Rodriguez is only "Bad" in the playoffs because it's trendy to say he is.
He's played in eight playoff series, and he's hit over .300 in FOUR of them. He's hit over .400 in TWO of them. He's hit under .200 TWICE, and he has seven postseason HR in 39 games. That's not quite the world's biggest choke artist, like everyone loves to call him.
Willie Mays, on the other hand, played in six postseason series, with only ONE .300 series. Furthermore, he hit a lone home run with 10 RBI in 25 career postseason games. Yet... nobody ever utters a word about Willie Mays' shortcomings in the postseason. I think it has something to do with the fact that everybody wants to call Willie Mays the greatest ever (personally, I'd take Hank Aaron in a heartbeat), and everybody wants to hate Alex Rodriguez.
Also, since Barry Bonds went 8/17 with 4 HR in the 2002 World Series, we seem to erase the fact that aside from that series, he's 29/134 (.216) in postseason play. Why is that?
