I despise Bud Selig a little more each day and most of it is based on his loyalty to the disgusting ownership group of the New York Mets. I am at Dodd Stadium today for another great day of work with the Detroit Tigers’ A-ball team, the Connecticut Tigers and I took a few minutes [...]

If the Cubs’ front office were on a reality makeover show, the appointment of Theo Epstein as President of Baseball Operations would nail every single desired goal.
