Good stuff I’ve found on teh Interwebs today:
Joe Sheehan’s take on the Sabathia deal. Free content, unusual for a Joe article, and very good stuff, usual for a Joe article.
J.C. Bradbury notices that Jeff Francoeur’s worst quotes are missing from the AJC’s Web site. I’m with Bradbury, by the way: “Frenchy” needs to shut his mouth until his OBP is no longer subterranean.
Revisionist history from Chuck Lamar.
The Big Lead weighs in (again) on the move of the Sonics franchise to Oklahoma City. I have never understood why this is a big story. It’s a business. The Sonics’ owners felt that they could make more money by moving the team. That’s the end of the story, isn’t it? If there’s something interesting here, it’s that the people of Seattle had the balls to say no to a pro sports franchise that tried to blackmail them into building them a publicly-funded stadium. Good for them. Yes, they lost their team, but the price of keeping the team was too high.
