I know I know I know…A Padres fan writing about the Dodgers ruining Baseball? How fresh! How edgy! How biased! It’s okay though, cause Dodgers fans on social media spend all day everyday telling us Padres fans they never think about us, so it’ll be fine. The Dodgers are breaking Baseball. If that’s biased, I […]
Okay, let’s attack the major criticism this post is gonna get right away, which most likely will be: If you hate the Chargers so much then why won’t you just let it go? They moved and you need to get on with your life? Get over it! Okay, so first off – fuck you. Secondly, […]
So, the Seidler’s are looking to sell the Padres, or at least bring on new investors. Well, now this all makes a little more sense. The Stammen hire, the delay in AJ’s contract, and the complete lack of interest from the Seidlers in being a competitive and inspiring leadership group. I mean, if you saw […]
I sit here writing this because the San Diego Padres, the team I have loved since I was eight years old, has once again done a stupid fucking thing. I sit here listening to Bon Iver (pronounced “Bon Iver”), because it’s the only music that seems to echo the feelings I have inside about this […]
News broke this morning that, at least for the moment, the Padres have found this season’s scapegoat for their once again lackluster (read: shitty) playoff performance: Mike Shildt. Yes, the manager. Again. Another manager. The fifth in the last six seasons, or as one might call it “The Manny Era”. Sure, they say Shildt retired, […]
I sat down to write something about this completely ridiculous 2024 Padres season so many times, but could never bring myself to do it due to the very real and utterly foolish feeling that I’d jinx the season. This was even more true with Jackson Merrill. I made a minor league trade for Merrill in […]
I didn’t know Peter Seidler. I met him once years ago at some Padres event when Ron Fowler was still “running” things. I’m also not gonna pretend I know him. Or pretend to know anything about his charitable work with the homeless, his philanthropy, or anything else outside of Baseball. Many people have and will […]
It seems, as always, the only thing actually standing in Baseball’s way of progressing as a sport are the old cranky stalwarts that make up the “royalty” of MLB Media Elite. And, they are really starting to suck. I get it. The game is changing…just a wee bit. But, just enough for you to be […]
I wish I had a more structured approach to what I’m about to write, but like Nick Canepa why would I try for something like that? His column has and always will read exactly like what he despises – a subpar blog that strives for controversy, but in the end is just an irrelevant rant […]
In the season finale of the Padres Canon, San Diego broadcast legend, Ben Higgins brings us our most interesting Canon hopeful yet – the San Diego Chicken! Does The Chicken deserve to be placed in the Canonical history of the San Diego Padres?! It’s up to you! FIRST: Listen to the episode and hear the […]
