First Impressions
Editor’s note. This was sent into our Supreme Master last week, but our Supreme Master was off vacationing in Maui! Why isn’t he watching every pitch of every Rockies Spring Training game?

Defending Jim Tracy. Sorta.
In many of the professional sports if a team appears unprepared the head coach, manager or whatever the elder leader of the team is called in that sport, is typically held accountable. If a defensive back is not hustling on a play and completely misses a coverage the onus is on the player, but as …
