Actually, the did spend way more than the Red Sox. In fact, they spent $284 million for the pleasure of having Giancarlo Stanton strike out 2000 times over the next 10 years.

They ARE that good. Unfortunately, so are the Astros. I, for one, would NEVER argue baseball with Joe Posnanski. "Posnanski: Are the 2018 Red Sox and Astros two of the best baseball teams of all time? So​ I spoke​ to a business​ communications​ class Thursday morning — no, you​ don’t...

Beav, you may very well be right about the restaurant part of this, but not the beer. The beer capital of New England, if not the entire US, is Vermont, the entire state from Waterbury (home of The Alchemist and Heady Topper) to Greensboro (home of Hill Farmstead) to Waitsfield (home of Lawson's...

Actually, Louis, I wasn't attacking your character or personal traits. I just find it amusing to find a middle aged man telling a bunch of feminists that they aren't really feminists. Tellya what. Next time you're in town, how about we get together with a few of my feminist friends and you...

I've been wondering for the last week what price Susan Collins was paid for her dignity. A new federal building in Portland perhaps? Maybe a new submarine contract for the shipyard at Bath?

Sorry, pal, that's just a load of horseshit. By what stretch of the imagination are these moralist sites "feminist." You want a feminist site? Here's one for you: http://anniesprinkle.org/ Feminism is about empowerment. Here's some more for your enlightenment...

You talking about the same socialist JFK who started us on the road to Medicare and Medicaid a job he would have finished had he lived, a job finished by the socialist LBJ, who also gave us the voting rights act and the civil rights bill and would be remembered as one of our greatest presidents...

Must admit that I almost laugh out loud every time I hear you railing about feminists. I've come to know somewhere just shy of 20 working girls in my time in Montreal and each and every one of them (including my SB of 2 1/2 years) considers herself a feminist and considers her work liberating...

Well, sure, but Ike would be a Democrat today. Like most intelligent Republicans (From, Will, Schmidt, Kristol, Gerson, Boot, Rubin, etc, etc.) he'd be horrified at what has become of his party. Sure, but you're talking CT. Up here, that figure is much, much higher, I'd bet between 30-40%...

I'd think you could probably negotiate a 15 minute "bust a nut" special, Sol.

Somehow, I don't think that any of Ms. Dion's relatives are active in the business.

Methinks the Beav doesn't know who owns Schwartz's.

Agree completely. I find the smoked meat at Schwartz's and the pastrami at Katz's to be pretty indistinguishable. Pete's is more flavorful and spicy. Katz's and Schwartz's are both tourist traps, but only one chooses to rip off the customers. Had Billy Crystal and Sally Field and their camera...

Small time? I'm not so sure. I was in New York with my girl for a few days and we had lunch at Katz's yesterday. The place is big, but it was only about half full. At the same time, Schwartz's, which has probably about 40% the seating, probably had a line halfway down the block. The service at...

The ESPN announcers were making a big deal about the Yankees record with and without Aaron Judge. It seems that they're 8-8 without him and like 30 games over .500 with him. What they were unaware of is that the Yanks decline started way before Judge got hurt. Their record over their last 46...

Seems like a good time for a post that's been fermenting in my head for a while. As some of you know, I'm in a long term arrangement, over two years now, that I can state without equivocation is the best relationship I've ever had with a woman. (It helps that she's gorgeous, smart, ethical, and...

Terrible news for Yankee fans. From MLBTR: The Yankees announced today that outfielder Jacoby Ellsbury has undergone surgery to repair the labrum of his left hip. He’s expected to require six months of recovery time. Ellsbury’s season is now over before it ever began. The 34-year-old has...

The Beav has said any number of laughable things in his 14,319 posts over the last 15 years, but this one is surely top 10. At this point, the Yankees have one reliable starter, the fragile Masahiro Tanaka. And I think it's reasonable to assume that one of CC Sabathia and Luis Severino will get...

A few takeaways from the recent massacre in Boston, all of these coming from the pages of the NY Post: They have swept this series because they have been better on offense, defense, starting, relieving, baserunning, trade-deadline acquisitions, attention to detail and even video review. At...

Boy, I sure hope the Hose sign Eovaldi to a long term deal before he gets away. As Eck pointed out, repeatedly, a 93 mph cutter is just insane. It's also unhittable. No, Beav, Lynn and Haps are not in Eovaldi's class, not even close.
