As Good As Goldman

Generally I would compare shilling for anything Yankee-esque right up there with vasectomy via weedwhacker--ugly pain about the most painful of subjects. But Steven Goldman is such a witty writer, so able to make wrong-angled connections seem so right, that I can't help but point you to his The Pinstriped Blog.

After all, my allegiances to writing over-rule my allegiance to sports teams. I mean, rumor has it that James Joyce didn't even like baseball, despite his great collection The Doubleners. (Maybe that joke's funnier in the original Gaelic?)
