Talking Tactics: SAFC 0-2 Everton (A)
After a weeks hiatus, our man Chris Weatherspoon returns with Talking Tactics and to give the defeat to Everton a once over. It's fair to say that the problem against Everton was that everyone was crap, but Chris's tactical eye has made some excellent observations this week... Though previous...
SAFC 2-3 Stoke City (A)
The way things were, I was delighted with 3 points, disappointed with 1, and gutted to come away from the Britannia with nothing. Mind, it didn't help that SAFC were up against 12 men all afternoon... SAFC started with a line-up very different to what I was expecting. 3 at the back! It was like a...
What's happened to the Utes?
It's remarkable how hopeless one can become over the course of only a few weeks. It wasn't that long ago we were celebrating an impressive and dominant win over the Iowa St. Cyclones. In the aftermath of that win, it looked as if the Utes were hitting their stride. Instead, it appears they peaked....
Paul Konerko, White Sox Let One Roll Away
It was the type of thing that only seems to happen in Minnesota. In an inning that only seemed to last about 5 minutes, the White Sox had 3 errors, a passed ball and allowed one bizarre (though not dome-influenced) hit.

Rockies 5, Nationals 4: Washington's tomfoolery turns into a Rox victory

Jays 7, O's 6: Unearned runs count on the board, too
The O's coughed up a 6-2 lead in the seventh inning and then a throwing error on Ramon Hernandez led to Freddie Bynum being unable to field a routine ground ball as it Buckner'd its way into left field, scoring Alex Rios for the game-winner with two out in the bottom of the ninth. If you didn't...
Indefensible
Mike Fontenot, your plane may be leaving for Des Moines soon. Last night's 5-3 Cub loss to the Reds wasn't all Fontenot's fault. Well, wait. Yes, it pretty much was. Fontenot's error on what would likely have been an inning-ending DP ball (yes, I know you can't assume a DP, but a major league...
ANtics Episode 3.19: Reality Bites
Oh the All-Star Break. A great time to relax and bask in the wonder of baseball... most years. But this year, as the A's slumped into the break like an underage wannabe frat boy with a fake ID returning to the dorms after his first bender, the shine has seemingly come off this team. As the team...
