The Dodgers have a tough task ahead of them in the League Championship Series. They have to beat the odd mixture of sexy youth and perplexing age that is the Philadelphia Phillies.
Since I'm a Braves fan, I of course want a team from the NL East to win because it makes my team look better (except for the Mets, of course...those bastards ought to be painfully turned into quadriplegics for all I care). I'm also, as has been discussed, an enormous ... Read More

First and foremost, I’d like to thank Toph and Jon for inviting me to participate in the riveting, moving sports Mecca that is The Sports Bizzo. It is truly an honor to be a part of the site and movement that is sure to supplant ESPN at the top of the sports world in three months, tops.
Secondly, I’d like to briefly introduce myself. My name is Christian. There. Glad that’s over.
Now, let’s move on to more important things. ... Read More
