  Sports a la King

1. How about those Toronto Blue Jays, blowing away the rest of the American League. I've already booked my flight to Toronto for the World Series.

2. I ran into Randy Johnson at Jamba Juice the other day. We both love Jamba Juice. He told me he hasn't decided if he'll pitch next year, nor has he decided what he’s going to do career-wise. Dollars he doesn’t need.

3. For my money, Alfonso Soriano is the best player in the XSBL.

4. I don't know about you, but I think Mark Prior is the next Don Drysdale.

5. I think if the Red Sox let both Nomar and Pedro leave through free agency, Bostonians will burn down Fenway, which would be a shame.

6. Unless you're a Cubs fan, I think you'll agree with me that its good for baseball to see the Cardinals on top of the National League again.

7. For my money, Champion makes the best sock

8. I don't know whats wrong with the Astros, but I love their pitching staff. Everybody throws hard.

9. I ran into the the Dodgers owner Matt The Tank at a Las Vegas brothel over the weekend. He said that if the Dodgers don't win the World Series this year, he'll finally get to find out what his skin smells like when its burning.

10. You know you're as old as me if you can remeber the last time the Royals or Brewers were any good.

11. If you a Texas Rangers fan, keep quiet about it, you're just embarrassing yourself.

12. If I could own stock in a baseball player, that player would be Wilson Betemit.

13. Money Can’t Buy Me Love Dept: The New York Yankees will continue to show that a pennant is not for sale without a little brains.

14. If you don't like creamed corn, then you've got a lot of soul-searching to do!

15. I think its a disgrace that a class guy like Mark Grace should be forced to finish his career in AAA. He's been a quality player for fifteen years! Some playoff team should pick him up for the pennant race.

16. I still don't know if the Marlins are for real, but watch out for this kid Bautista. The next Pedro

17. You heard it here first: Cubs over Blue Jays in the World Series. Hey, if the Red Sox can win a title, why not the Cubbies?
