Happy World Series, Babes! Sorry for being MIA this past week. Been traveling, but ready for the final few games of the year. It should make for a hell of a series. If you’re looking for a little extra fun over the next seven* games, here is your BOTB 2017 World Series Drinking Game. (*if necessary) Drink when: You hear an MVP chant Someone robs … Continue reading 2017 World Series Drinking Game
If you’re a Philadelphia sports fan, you know this week’s Babe: Lauren Hart. She’s best known for singing National Anthem at Flyers home games since 1997, following in the footsteps of her father, Gene Hart, “The Voice of the Flyers” for nearly 30 years. It was just after his death that she dedicated her time to continuing his tradition. The Anthemist: an interesting and often … Continue reading Babe of the Week: Oct 20
The NFL overtime rules have long been under scrutiny, undergoing a few major changes in recent years.

(Confession: I once got a little tipsy at a Dodgers game and very obnoxiously cheered on the ballgirls … Continue reading Babe(s) of the Week: Oct 13
I got a Gchat message today from a man friend: Him: “I can’t believe the U.S. did not make the World Cup” Me: “Yeah” Him: “First time since 1986” Mostly because I was busy at work, I paid no mind to the context of this message but it occurred to me later once I saw this Twitter exchange that I did an incredible disservice to … Continue reading Reminder: The USWNT are badasses
The reason the Nationals are NL East champs is because they are in a terrible division and are just not a team to be afraid of. Sorry, Bryce. The Yankees are lucky they made it to the postseason a year early. Clayton Kershaw doesn’t have great postseason numbers and probably can’t take the Dodgers all the way to the World Series. The Astros are … Continue reading One Sentence Postseason Roundup: 10/6/17
