About Russell »

I love baseball. Pure and simple. My friends call me to settle bets. My girlfriends know that I don't exist for the month of October. I still spend more time at batting cages than anyone who doesn't coach or play little league. I spend hours on the internet poring over scouting reports, watching Youtube video of the latest Japanese players to be posted (and Cuban players to defect). I was so excited that 2k sports released Front Office Manager that I almost cried. To boil it down, it's a minor miracle I've ever even kissed a girl.

What a day to make my debut in the press box as the Dodgers were abused by Felix Hernandez and the Mariners. The good, bad and ugly are here for you:

Greetings baseball fans and friends!

I present a slide show of events from June 15th, when the Dodgers held an event which allows fans to come onto the field to hit, pitch, and field. There are some behind the scenes shots as well and your doppelganger makes an appearance.

Hi Russell

Here is the sixth installment of my Cooperstown’s Best series, rating the shortstops. This will be my final “blast” for these articles. It makes me feel cheap to pimp my articles, so I gotta stop it. Take a look if you can.
