Scores That Matter For 31 March 2010 [WMQ]
31 March Hanshin Tigers (6) at Hiroshima Carp (4). The Carp are now 1-4-0 and in last place. Rakuten Golden Eagles (13) at Chiba Lotte Marines (4). The Eagles are now 2-5-0 and in fifth place. The bats seem to have awakened for Rakuten. Hiroshima gets closer, but still lags behind Hanshin.

MLB 2010 Season Projections [Wednesday Morning Quarterback]
Another year, another season! 2010 looks to be another good one. The Marlins don’t look like they’re about to run away with their division, but the Rays have a fighting chance this year. I’m getting ahead of myself, so let’s back up and go through this division by division like we do every year. AL […]

The Scores That Matter For 30 March 2010 [WMQ]
This is a new idea I had to help me better track the records of the teams that I follow. Check it out weekdays if you care about the Marlins, Rays, Carp, Golden Eagles, Nationals, or Orioles. Since Japanese games are played 13 hours ahead and that can get pretty confusing, I’ll just post the […]

And We’re Off! [Wednesday Morning Quarterback]
It’s still just under two weeks before the MLB baseball season is set to start, but the NPB has already gone and started its season. To be more specific, the Pacific League started its season last Saturday, but their second series won’t begin until the Central League starts on Friday. Are things looking good for […]

Spring Training [Wednesday Morning Quarterback]
It’s gonna be a short one this week. Spring Training continues down in Florida and Arizona as teams are making cuts to their rosters, sending players down to the minor leagues or releasing them as they see fit. Most team rosters are starting to take shape and both Stephen Strasburg and Aroldis Chapman have pitched […]

Strasburg Debut and The Next Generation [Wednesday Morning Quarterback]
Stephen Strasburg finally made his Major League debut in spring training yesterday and he was everything that the Nationals could have hoped he would be in two innings. After receiving 15 M$ before ever throwing a pitch, you’d certainly hope he was amazing, but will he make the starting rotation? His first two innings had […]

Greatest Ice Hockey Game I’ve Ever Watched [Wednesday Morning Quarterback]
The Olympic ice hockey gold medal match was a while ago (on Sunday) and it was a super-exciting game, even with its disappointing ending. Despite owning the first seed coming into the competition, Canada was the clear favorite for the match thanks to its greater star power and skill and the added motivation of bringing […]

Doing Quite Well Now [Wednesday Morning Quarterback]
Would it be appropriate for me to take credit for US Olympic dominance in these games thanks to my little pep talk last week? As I write this post, the US is ahead in medal count with 26 over Germany’s 23 and tied for most golds (with Germany) with 7. All we’ve got to do […]

2010 Winter Olympics [Wednesday Morning Quarterback]
The 2010 Winter Olympics are upon us, which means almost nothing to a great portion of the US population, but gets me all riled up about Team USA and Olympic gold. I’m not super big on the vast majority of the sports that are part of either Olympic games, but I am pumped for ice […]
