Idolizing Mike McCoy
Hi everyone! I'm new to Bluebird Banter and looking forward to speaking with all of you. I thought I would give this FanPost thing a try, so here goes! Enjoy! When John McDonald left town, I, like everyone else, was sad to see him go. On the field, he could play second base, shortstop and third...
My top 5 closer songs
There is a lot going on these days with the new GM, our dreams of a DFA for Mathis, Gold Glove awards, and the potential for the free agent silly season. But I wanted to write about something beyond all those things: Closer songs. It is a subject that has been discussed before by other writers...

Hecklin': Louisville
[Thanks again to Freak A Leak for this] I know it is merely Wednesday (ED: Frontpag'd on Thursday), but I wanted to give you all plenty of time to study up, because this one is a biggie. Don't let this keep you from Austin Peay tonight (ED: I've gotta get to these things sooner), but, gentlemen,...
