New Blogger for Knuckle Curve

Hello, baseball world. I’m Stephen Kersey and I’ll be pinch-blogging for Geoff Young for the foreseeable future. I’ve enjoyed his blog since he first started it and I hope I can pick up where he’s left off. He has obviously laid a very nice foundation.

Headin’ to Baseball Digest Daily

I’ll be here at Knuckle Curve until April 15, at which time my esteemed colleague Stephen (of Hoops Fantasy fame) will assume control. I’m […]

Football, Really?

I’m told there is a football game today that might interest some of you. I’ll be watching Puppy Bowl IV, of course, but if football is your thing, be sure to visit my esteemed colleagues at Every Morning Quarterback and Squib Kick.

My editor, Kori, challenged each of us in the b5 sports channel to answer the question, “Why do you love sports?” It’s tougher than you think.

Obligatory Tom Brady Post

I understand there was a football game last night. Heard about it from my imaginary friend. Conversation went a little like this:
IF: How ’bout Tom Brady?
Me: How ’bout him?
IF: Patriots could become the first team ever to finish with a 16-0 record; wouldn’t that be something?

Me: Will […]

Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy Thanksgiving from Knuckle Curve. Eat turkey, watch football (after you’ve read BCS Frenzy, EMQB, and Squib Kick, of course), pass out on the couch, preferably in that order. Good times…

When Memes Attack

I’ve been sitting on this a while because, well, I don’t know why. Miki tagged me last month, and what the heck, it’s the holidays. Here are seven things you probably don’t know about me:
