AvgM: at it again—10:18 AM
Perhaps it should just be a standing order that you trundle on over to the 'Porter every Monday and check out what Arksie has to say in his (brilliantly named, I might add) Average Mulder column. But, in case you need extra incentive, it's excellent again this week.
Everyone knows I'd love it no matter what he wrote, but the reason it merits special mention is that it's one of those columns where he takes an issue of limited interest to people (like me) who don't follow sports closely (in this case, the debate over intentional walking), and brings it to life for anybody (like me) who is intelligent and knows how to read. Plus, plenty of good laughs along the way for those of you (like me) who have a sense of humor.
You're Kidding Right? ['Porter]
(Also, a few jokes at the expense of Barry Bonds, who I happen to loathe. He's at the center of the BALCO maelstrom, but he's the only one who isn't using steroids to improve his baseball performance – he just wants to bulk up so he'll be more efficient at beating his wife.)
