Hey Roger,

Mark Buerhle's superhuman performance on Thursday brought back great memories for me of the last American League pitcher prior to pitch a perfect game. On July 18th, 1999, I watched my favorite player David Cone add his name to a hallowed list. Only nine years old, it was a mesmerizing moment much like my first time at Disney World. And in this article, I relived it!

Just because Kobe Bryant got his ring, doesn't mean that us Kobe rationalists (not haters) have to take a break from ripping him for a while. Can Kobe with without Jack Nicholson?

Hey Roger,

A couple months ago a man from Fayattesville, Arkansas emailed ESPN writer Bill Simmons about when he met Morgan Freeman. Instead of asking the Academy Award winning actor for an autograph, the man came up with the ingenous idea of asking Morgan Freeman to record a voicemail message for him.

It got me thinking, which athletes would have the potential for leaving the best voicemail? What would they say?

Hey Roger, last night restarted the booing of Alex Rodriguez in the Bronx after a tough night with runners on. The tactics the crowd resorted to did not go over well with this Yankee fan.
