The Mariners lost another game in the standings today, as they fell to the Indians 9-0. The Angels, Rangers, and Red Sox all won, which pushes us back to 6.5 games out in the West, and 5.5 out of the wild card. I see it as there being two different ways to look at the [...]

Big Ben Back, Probably
With the recent Rasho Nesterovic to Raptors deal, all signs now point toward Ben Wallace ending up back in Detroit.
I’ve made my concerns known about this possibility on LoD before. But my best attempt at articulating my thoughts about Ben to Detroit was probably on this...
Sessions, Andre Miller and Other Updates
In a story that is taking more turns than a Nascar race, it appears the Knicks are back on Sessions. At this point I just wish something would actually get done. Gery Woeflel is tweeting

They Played Here: Dennis Hopson
Over at Zoner Sports, I do a series called “When the Bulls Were Dominant“. Here at Pippen Ain’t Easy, we’ll look at some of the lesser celebrated players that have passed through Chicago. Their stays may have been short. Maybe they were a big name that threw...
Play your best and you shall be rewarded…
Today the Flyers announced the signing of one of my favorite young prospects Marc-Andre Bourdon. When I was watching the 2008 entry draft, I expected a goaltender to be pick in the third round by the Flyers rather than a skater. But there I was, listening to the announcement of Bourdon...

Do Miguel “Hanley Pujols” Sano and Traci Lords Have Something in Common?
The player the Pittsburgh Pirates covet has been partially cleared. What the hell does that mean? Miguel Angel Sano has been cleared. Partially. Well, sorta.
Sounds like serious stuff, because it is. And confusing too.
Sano’s identity is regular (huh?) and his age undetermined...
Coup’s Knee-jerk Reaction: Andre Miller to Blazers
For weeks I’ve been saying that if Andre Miller was Portland’s big move of the summer, I wouldn’t be able to help being disappointed. I’ve known that for some time now and, with Miller being “the” acquisition this July 24th, I was prepared for this...
Jeremy Mayfield Suspended Again
At the descretion of an appeals court, NASCAR has received its wish to have Jeremy Mayfield’s injunction overturned.
How the appeals court had the authority to overturn a ruling set by a U.S. District Court judge is beyond me. But, seeing as I do not know much about law, I can...

Cards Anchor Lineup with Unusually Bold Trade Deadline Deal

Series Preview: San Diego Padres
The league’s worst team looks to catch a break when the league’s second worst team comes to town in the form of the San Diego Padres. As dreadful as Washington’s pitching has been this year, the Padres’ bats have been just as bad. Outside of Adrian Gonzalez...

Fish Bites
The Bites are back and ready to be chewed upon. Here are your Marlins news notes for this Friday.

Mother Nature Strikes Again
So it appears that the weather has a serious vendetta against the Nationals and Cardinals. In Thursday’s rescheduled contest from a May 3rd rainout, the Nats and Cards only managed to go a rain shortened six innings before finally throwing in the towel. Despite giving the...

Its a Friday, so I will write a non-basketball, non Ramon Sessions, non Bucks article.
