Old News

Posted on March 30, 2012 by Joe Posnanski

It is a bit disconcerting to get scooped on your own move, but, well, this is the world where we live. You may have heard … I am leaving Sports Illustrated for a new venture. I can’t really go into details about the venture except to say that it’s a joint thing between the new…

Happy Pi Day

Posted on March 14, 2012 by Joe Posnanski

Great stuff from High Heat stats — hat tip to brilliant reader Joe — on National Pi Day. High Heat Stats figured out which pitchers had seasons ERAs closest to Pi — an inspired idea on NPD Day.* So of course I had to get in on this, largely because I’m in Vegas, and if…

Posted on March 7, 2012 by Joe Posnanski

You may or may not have seen this, but Dennis Kucinich was destroyed in a primary Tuesday in Ohio. Don’t worry, this is not a political column — it’s actually about the designated hitter. But it begins with Kucinich, who was the mayor of Cleveland when I was growing up there. Kucinich is universally seen…

Bounty Hunters

Posted on March 5, 2012 by Joe Posnanski

If you don’t care about the Saints bounty hunting story — barely even see it as as story — you might as well stop reading now. I know that includes a lot of people. I know there is a strong belief that just about every team in the NFL does this sort of thing, and…
