BLEACHERS BREW EST. MAY 2006

Someone asked me how my blog and newspaper column came to be titled "Bleachers Brew". It's like this, it's an amalgam of sorts of two things: The bleachers area in the stadium/arena where I used to sit when I would watch baseball, football, and basketball games and Miles Davis' great jazz album Bitches Brew. That's how it got culled together. I originally planned on calling it "The View from the Big Chair" that is a nod to Tears For Fear's second album, Songs from the Big Chair. So there.

There's Crying in Baseball

As part of my lament, my sorrow because the Yankees lost once more...

It's okay Ms. Suzyn Waldman and Mr. Joe Torre that we shed tears once more. I know Mr. Jimmy Dugan would beg to differ, but it's allright. Cripes, that's twice in the space of like 10 days I've shed some tears.

Here's a short clip on one of the best sports movies ever with one of the most memorable lines ever. Tom Hanks is the best!
