After last week’s landslide of a nomination from Ben Higgins, we proudly welcome Trevor “Not Glenn” Hoffman into the officially unofficial Padres Canon! We all knew it would happen and I’m glad we can put it behind us! Well, well, what the hell, what the heck who’s next? ROD BECK! We welcome the one and […]
I can’t believe it, but Will Venable did in fact make it into the Canon, so blame your buddy who bought his Jersey. So far, we’re a perfect 3 for 3 and I can’t imagine this week will change that streak! We are joined this week by the one and only Ben Higgin’s from 97.3 […]
After a completely non-heated debate, we have now welcomed our second member into the Canon – Yangervis Solarte! But, it’s a new week and there are new fights to start! This week we welcome TKF founder and Padres Podcasting founding father – Nick McCann who has nominated the oft misunderstand and properly rated Will Venable […]
Alright fine. I’ll bite. I mean, the only reason this fourth tier ESPN talking head mentioned the Padres is because for the first time in a long time lots and lots of people care. He isn’t a known commodity in Bristol, and so in a feeble sad attempt at carving out a niche of being […]
The Canon is off to an unbelievable start and episode 2 is just as unbelievable! This week Coach Lew – Scott Lewis from Voice of San Diego nominates the joyful grinder, Yangervis Solarte, for inclusion into the Padres Canon!

When Jerry Coleman was inducted into the Hall of Fame he said something so true that the majority of us in San Diego reacted to with a knowing smile and light nod of agreement: “(Ted Leitner) is the best broadcaster you’ve never heard of!” This was and is true for a number of reasons and […]
This year is always a special time of year. It’s our annual reminder that the gatekeepers for Baseball’s hallowed Hall are, for the most part, old traditionalists who refuse to adapt. Although we’re not supposed to mention his name, it took Jonah Keri years to convince his colleagues to give Tim Raines, a seemingly unworthy […]
So far this offseason has been a doozy for Padres fans. We lost Sunshine to Tommy John surgery, and await the fate of Dinelson Lamet feeling as if something season-ending is just around the corner. However, we also picked up certified ace and former Cy Young Award-Winner, Blake Snell, signed Korean superstar Ha-seong Kim, and […]
Tampa Bay Vs. New York The Yankees and Giancarlo Stanton start off with a huge win in game one. To celebrate the next day in San Diego the team goes to the beach and they bury Clint Frazier in the sand. Not really knowing what sand is Frazier dies trying to climb out. Aaron Judge […]
