Links for Wednesday

If you aren’t watching the Clemens hearing, you are missing out. It’s crazy theater. I can’t look away.

Scouts Inc. picks on 5 things the Colts need do in the offseason.

Maddux might be done soon. All good things, I guess. I’m glad I saw him pitch three times. I saw him last September in Colorado, and he was brilliant. Thanks to Chad for the link. This is precisely why the Clemens things makes me mad. I never saw him pitch, but on several occasions tried to work out my life so I could watch him. I’m glad I didn’t waste my efforts. I love baseball. I want my kids to love baseball. I take opening day as a holiday and throw a party every year. I spend more time watching/listening to baseball in a MONTH than I do on most whole NFL seasons. I hate being lied to and played like a fool. I’m not willing to throw a whole generation under the bus, but I will go after those that the evidence points to. Maddux went from dominant with a 95 MPH fastball to wiley and frustrating with a high speed of 87 at the last game I saw him pitch. He had 1 three ball count and no walks in that game. He threw 61 pitches in 6 innings at Coors, giving up 1 run. He got the win. The Rockies would win just about every other game they would play for the next month.

I’m glad I was there. That’s how you are supposed to pitch in the twilight.

The Football Scientist agrees with us about Derek Anderson. He also hates on Dallas Clark because of a low YPA (read D.R.O.P.S).

Fox Sports does a fairly useless preview of the Colts offseason. This one is a tad better.

The argument is (poorly) made that Jim Caldwell’s impending promotion is BAD for black coaches. A black guy has made it into the ‘Old Boys Club’ and that’s a bad thing? I’m not buying what he’s selling.

Kelvin Sampson is in trouble. (duh)
