The masterminds behind Fire Joe Morgan have struck a blow for, well, we’re not sure. But what we do know is that according to the Rocky Mountain News, FJM is a blocked site in China. And this very much delights Ken Tremendous and Co. From the site:
I find this to be excellent.
What’s the matter, China? Can’t handle EqA? Big fans of bunting over there? Love Livan Hernandez, hate Johan Santana?
We will not stop blogging until every Chinese citizen has the right to read curse-filled nonsense about Dusty Baker. And that is a kind-of promise!
And let’s not even get into South Korea’s thoughts on OPS+.
*Are you dying to know specifically how 40 Olympic athletes from Ivy League schools are performing at the Beijing games? Well wonder no more. Ivies in China has you covered.
*Hugging Harold Reynolds, a big fan of local food celeb Andrew Zimmern, is jazzed about the Bizarre Foods promotion coming up at the Metrodome. We’re holding out for dollar yak-dog night, but that’s just us.
*Shawn Kemp might be playing this year in Italy! We’ll let the Trans-Atlantic court system settle the paternity suits.
*Gilbert Arenas has a most excellent swimming pool.
*The women blogging folk are getting organized, and it’s terrifying — terrifyingly awesome. Sooze alerts us that many UAFORB (Uterine-American Friends Of RandBall) have joined forces on a new blog called Playing The Field. Sooze, Lizzy, Holly, Sarah … sweet mercy 15 in all! Expect sports and sass. Hope for pillow fights, but let them happen organically.
