‘Meber this silliness?

Smile, it won’t mess up your hair.

I like AJ rockin’ the black eye look:

Makes him look cool.

Goodness:

Remixed by Afrika Bambaataa:

I always mix these tunes up in my head for some reason…

Yo, check out this great spoken word recording from Boris Karloff via my man Steinski.

Some flix from around town…

from our man in the street…

I want to be a part of it…

This here was one of the most provocative album covers I remember as a kid. My parents didn’t own this record but I saw it almost everywhere else. Didn’t know–or care–who Herb Albert was, just loved that green, the whipped cream and that girl. It made sex look tasty but fun.

Cause there ain’t no such thing as too much Sammy.

The Yanks have lost four straight, seven of their last eight. They’ve been back-and-forth with the Rays for first place all season, a steady give-and-take, a dance. Now, the Rays are up by a half-game. But unless something horrible happens (the Red Sox trail the Yanks by seven games for the wildcard), they are both making the playoffs.

Tonight gives Matt Garza against the kid Nova, in his biggest test yet. Should be fun. I see the Bombers scoring some runs–don’t know if they’ll haul in the Score Truck, but more than enough to win.

Time to get back to the business of being in business.

Let’s Go Yan-Kees!

Mmm, Mmm, Good.

Is Bill James losing it? Check out this rambling essay for Slate and you tell me.

Jay Jaffe presents a reason to be cheerful, forget what happened down in Texas…

Peace to Brad for hipping me to this on-line collection of William Gottlieb’s photography. It’s wonderful.

Man, imagine going back in time to witness 52nd street during its heyday?

Dude, I couldn’t stay awake last night, missed the end of the game. When I woke up and saw the box score, I was like this:

Now, since I didn’t actually stay up late for the second night in a row to see Mariano lose that Texas Horror Show, I’m trying to remain hopeful. Yeah, even though Cliff Lee pitches today for the Rangers. This is Lee’s first game back from the DL and he hasn’t been his usual dominant self since joining Texas. I could see him shutting the Yanks out for seven innings but I could also see the Yanks touching him up some too. Maybe Derek Jeter has a great game.

It’s all up to that Mystery Man Moseley:

C’mon, son, make like Aaron Small and shut-shut ’em down.

Never mind the hankies, Let’s Go Yan-Kees!

Saturday Morning Melodies…

Andy Pettitte pitched for the Trenton Thunder last night and the reports are good.

No, it’s not the theme song to Not Necessarily the News, it’s EC y’all:
