New Mountaineer Reading.

FYI- Two regular readers of Bastard Sons of Pinfall Marks have collaborated to form a new blog dedicated primarily to our glorious Mountaineers. Thus far they are dedicated solely to WVU football. Who isn't? (BSR until after the World Series) They call themselves The Unmistakeable Power of Fission (I have no idea) and have been up for a little over a week now. I promised to introduce them when they got a few posts deep- and so I am. Read them here:

Many of you may recall the fledgling stages of this glorious site. When the three of us made fun of each other with no readers and no cash cow advertising. Well, nothing has changed I guess. We do have some ads- but you assholes won't buy big tickets through OUR stub hub link. We aren't permitted to sit and click the ads ourselves. We still make fun of each other, only now three or four of you are reading it. In time I hope that the Fission guys develop their site into all the wonderment of our own. We DO have a BSPM tailgate coming up. Vladimir and Natty Light on us- come one come all.

Also, be looking forward to my MLB prediction review. Who picked the Brewers when nobody else would? BSR. Where are the Yanks now? A game and half behind the BoSox ready to overtake them the last week of the season. Who loves baseball more than BSR? Nobody- especially since football season is here. I understand this- its okay. WVU football is worth missing a game for. Please leave disparaging comments on the Fission site. I do.

While we gear up for the festivities tonight in San Francisco for the MLB All-Star game, I find last nights home run derby an excellent opportunity to post this picture I have been sitting on. While I wish I could say I took it at my house, it is from a yahoo search.

SAN FRANCISCO (AFP) - Los Angeles Angels slugger Vladimir Guerrero, playing in his first Major League Baseball home run derby since 2000, beat Toronto Blue Jays right fielder Alex Rios 3-2 in the finals on Monday.

While I am presently on the road and buried in worky, I do hope to find time soon after the action tonight to post an update on the MLB season as it was predicted by yours truly prior to the seasons start. I don't count the Yanks out totally, but do concede they are in the wild card chase already. I feel good about picking the Brew Crew to do well. Look for more baseball and cheap booze in the not to distant future.
