To the Victor belong the spoils of thine enemy. -Wlliam Marcy
Public Service Announcement: Ok, here we go! Just a quick little short one. A quick little report one. Better than a genital wart one. The Boston Red Sox have acquired Victor Martinez. Hooray Red Sox! The Boston Red Sox have acquired that other big bopper in the line-up they so desparately needed. Deparately seeking Susan. The best part? The best part is, the Boston Red Sox have acquired that other big bopper in the line-up they so desparately needed without having to part with Clay Buchholz or Daniel Bard. Oh baby, you know what I like! Sing it with me bitches! Follow the bouncing ball: Happy days are here again! The skies above are clear again! So lets sing a song of cheer again! Happy days are here again!

You`re so slick, honey, know every trick now. You know I want it, I want it so bad. You know I need it, I can`t believe it. So come on baby, please relieve it. -J Geils Band
Public Service Announcement: Ok, here we go! Ok, ok, I’m over the hurt. Big Papi was dirty. I get it. I don’t like it, but I get it. What I also get is that there some rat bastard out there releasing these names one by one. Niagara Falls! Slowly I turn. Inch by inch. Step by step. Some rat bastard has let out seven names. Why not let them all out? Ozzie Guillen said, “Can somebody in baseball, please get that stupid list out and move on.” Ozzie Guillen said, “This is ridiculous. This is embarrassing. This is a joke. Whoever is there is there, get them out and that’s it.” Ozzie Guillen got it right. Read More »

Hawaii football coach Greg McMackin: “Charlie gives this talk and the Notre Dame players get up and they do this little cheer … this little faggot dance.” We here at JQP got out hot little hands on some rare footage of that dance:

Love hurts. Love scars. Love wounds and marks. Love hurts, ooh ooh love hurts. -Nazareth
Public Service Announcement: Ok, here we go! What’s crack-a-lacking sports fans? Baseball. That’s what. Oh doctor! What draws my admiration? What is that which gives me joy? Baseball! Like my main man Roy Hobbs always says: ”God, I love baseball.” Me too Roy, me too. I love my Red Sox, and I love Big Papi. Once, the most feared hitter of all. Once, the most endeared hitter of all. Once the most cheered hitter of all. Now, there is no joy in mudville. Now, he’s lumped with them. You mentioned Salvy, Tommy Como. That means somethin’. Why’d you say them? You coulda said anybody. Why’d you have to say Big Papi? Read More »

Pump it up, until you can feel it. Pump it up, when you don’t really need it. -Elvis Costello
Public Service Announcement: Ok, here we go! I hate to do this one. Verbs I would rather conjugate than do this one. Makes me sick from here to the great Bay State to do this one. But do this one I must. In Joba Chamberlain the New York Yankees trust. I didn’t. I didn’t trust him. I’ve called him Joba Chambermaid. I’ve called him Joba Chamberpot. I’ve called him a lot worse. I was wrrrr. I was wrrrrr. I was wrrrrrr. You know what I was. Today I’m here to make up for some of that, even if today I feel a little what Bill Parcells felt when his Jets lost to my Patriots. Today I will try to make ammends even if I have to throw up in my mouth a couple of times doing it. Read More »

(ESPN 7PM ET) Last night, Scott Kazmir, he of an 0-3 record with a 10.74 ERA in six starts against other teams at Tropicana Field, allowed only one run over seven innings in the Rays’ 6-2 win over the Yankees. Ha ha ha! Last night, for only the second time in their 759 starts together on the left side of the Yankees infield, Derek Jeter and Alex Rodriguez both committed a throwing error in the same game. Ha ha ha! Tonight, expect more of the same. Tonight, expect Matt Garza to further that momentum and draw the reigning AL champions in closer to the hated Yankees. Tonight, expect Joba Chambermaid to get knocked around come the 6th inning. I’m not the greatest! I’m the double greatest! Not only do I knock ‘em out, I pick the round. Get your popcorn ready!
