San Diego Sports
Hall of Fame voting is moronic. It’s a flawed system that gives a select group of writers the majority of control over a player’s legacy. Writers who could have at one time had a contentious relationship with a great player, or just didn’t like the “way” those players played the game, or writers who just […]
This week the guys dig into SDSU’s potential expansion to Mission Valley with VOSD’s Andy Keatts. They talk about the 2018 race coming up between the university’s idea and SoccerCitySD’s plan that has already made it on the ballot.

It’s time to take The Kept Faith to the next level, and we need your support… Since 2007 Nick and I have been writing about San Diego sports. Back then the void for an opinion that wasn’t radio or the U-T was unfathomably large. Our writing was pretty bad, and all over the place, and […]

After unpacking the problems with making a move like that, they take a closer look at executive chairman Ron Fowler and the influence he brings […]
During the ALCS and NLCS Nicholas Burmeister (AKA @PadresHaiku) and I wrote back and forth between games. We did the same for this amazing World Series that took place between the Astros and Dodgers. It was a lot of fun and, like it often does, brought up feelings about our own San Diego Padres. Enjoy! […]
A couple of days ago it was reported that Adrian Gonzalez would not be joining his beloved Dodgers during the World Series. Dodgers’ fans were left confused, a little concerned, and some hurt. For Padres fans the reaction was less worry and more joyous. It felt like maybe Adrian was a true Padre after all, […]
The MLB playoffs are an emotional time for all Padres fans. I started emailing with Nicholas Burmeister AKA @PadresHaiku about it. We talked about our feelings through out the entire process. NICK MCCANN – Fri, Oct 13, 2017 at 3:54 PM Dear Haiku, It’s been a while since my last letter and for that I’m […]
