		<title>benefit Or detriment</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Any time Team trades Blingie&#8217;d player, Blog takes notice. 

Guts joins non-Blingie&#8217;d Rodrigo Lopez as erstwhile Baltimore multiple Opening Day starter who ended up on Rockies. 
In return for Guts Team gets one durable starter in Jason Hammel and one capable reliever in Matt Lindstrom.  
Pitching in Camden bandbox against AL East bats vs. [...]]]></description>

		<title>having sOme fight</title>
		<description><![CDATA[First off: Ravens played solid game overall but miscues hurt &#8216;em awful. Sorry about outcome, Baltimore. Also, in first quarter, bogus illegal contact call against Lardarius Webb gave Patriots eventual margin of victory.
Anyway &#8211; on to real sport. Not easy to find optimism this offseason for Team of Blog. But a Blog can try. So [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Memlo is NOT RETIRED you dummies!

Image via Internets or something
He&#8217;s only retired from Venezuela ball because he&#8217;s tired of paying blood money security guards just to be able to travel there!
But that doesn&#8217;t mean Melvin is just going to take any old offer that comes along. Oh no. He won&#8217;t play third, for example, just [...]]]></description>

		<title>strains, heartbreak and redemptiOn</title>
		<description><![CDATA[If 2010 was Year of Luke, it would be hard not to dub 2011 Year of Vlad. Take your pick, neither vintage had smooth, oaky flavor with hints of chocolate, raspberry, a winning record or playoffs.
Alternatively one could argue 2011 was year of Andy MacPhail&#8217;s long goodbye.
Or, if you wanted to be an on-field clinician, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[We learned a lot more about Brian Roberts&#8217; situation a few days back when Sun published news feature about his injury.
We learned beyond shadow of doubt that initial injury — which turned out to be a vestibular concussion — was self-inflicted. We learned that for weeks on end last year after re-concussing self, B-Rob was [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[So many things happening! Blog of Team was busy last couple weeks with failed lobbying effort to have Memlo be part of bronze statue menagerie. Almost pulled it off except that d*mned Brooks R. Such a spotlight thief!
Oh and also everybody got all tut-tutty and judgmental with Venezuela right as Blog unleashed fourteen-slide, bunt-heavy power [...]]]></description>

		<title>ice cream Of future hits skids</title>
		<description><![CDATA[So Blog&#8217;s eighth-seeded playoff Team won World Series. Uncertainty! It rules MLB Postseason! It was fun post-season. Now that Tony LaRussa has hung up managing shoes, maybe he can join Randy Johnson, Keith Hernandez, etc. in Just for Men ad campaign.
But Blog has sadder news, this day. Apparently mean ol&#8217; Regions Bank has decided IT&#8217;S [...]]]></description>

Also, when Blog blasts mobile thoughts related to Alex Rodriguez, paper of record listens!

Anyway, you&#8217;re more than Welcome, Mr. Fancy City Room Man. Blog is free and always will be. Hahaha. Get [...]]]></description>

The Wayward O: It&#8217;s fun to do
Sox by Prox: Have you considered adding uncertainty negative points?
The Wayward O: [Blog thinks] there&#8217;s an underlying assumption that all teams in playoffs have liabilities
Sox by Prox: Makes sense. Playing a little devil&#8217;s advocate

		<description><![CDATA[&#8220;Blog&#8217;s certainty system doesn&#8217;t award certainty points because they&#8217;re easy, it awards them because they&#8217;re hard.&#8221; &#8212; John F. Kennedy*
Last year&#8217;s Phillies over Rays prediction, based on formula below, was off the mark. But in other years system has proven pretty good at predicting playoffs.
System has changed a little at times over past five years, [...]]]></description>
