There are very few people in this country who have a legitimate reason to fear personal injury from terrorism. Most of them are in Iraq, courtesy of the Red, White, and Bush. But other than folks living in New York, Washington DC, and to a lesser extent Boston and Los Angeles, the rest of us home-landers don’t have a whole lot to fear. Why do I bring this up? 9 ip, 14 k's, onl...

Location: Pittsburgh, PA. Great place to start. Periodic Table of Blogs. Value Over Replacement Blog. Friday, October 15, 2004. I'm considering changing the name of this blog from "Omblog" to "Battingthird". Originally I resisted calling this blog Battingthird because I felt it implies that the blog is solely focused on baseball. But there is a certain symmetry to having it named after the web address. Let me know in the comments section what you think. Which is better? Posted by bkopec @ 7:49 PM. I real...

Location: Pittsburgh, PA. Great place to start. Periodic Table of Blogs. Value Over Replacement Blog. Thursday, September 23, 2004. 2 pieces of alarming news for the Bucs. The other bit of bad news was the report that Kip Wells had a third MRI on his 'inflamed' elbow and is sending the results to Dr. James Andrews. According to team doctors, his injury has improved with rest, but Wells requested another MRI. I see 2 possible outcomes:. Posted by bkopec @ 10:02 PM. Posted by bkopec @ 3:36 PM. I try hard n...

In case you happen to be JJ Davis, or a member of his immediate family, you might be interested to know that you've been traded to the Washington Nationals. Otherwise, you probably don't care nor should you care. (With the Davis and Kendall trades, the Pirates purged 2 former #1 draft picks in the same week.). Posted by bkopec @ 10:26 PM. It's impossible to judge this trade y...

Remember, no matter what Kerry was doing during his time in Vietnam, another 15 years would pass before Bush would get his nose clean and start to take his life seriously. Posted by bkopec @ 4:15 PM.

Location: Pittsburgh, PA. Great place to start. Periodic Table of Blogs. Value Over Replacement Blog. Friday, November 19, 2004. I'm really trying hard to keep this site from turning into a 'bitching' blog, (though I would like it to become bitchin') especially when it comes to criticizing other Pittsburgh writers since we all have Bucco-gold at heart. For that reason, I've never once mentioned the Paul Meyer Pirates Q&A. Take for example, the following excellent question posed in last week’s Q&A:. It's ...

Location: Pittsburgh, PA. Great place to start. Periodic Table of Blogs. Value Over Replacement Blog. Friday, September 03, 2004. Craig Wilson is a pinch hitting machine. Another dramatic come-from-behind late inning heroic victory against the Brewers on Wednesday. Seeing the evolution of wilson from a pinch-hitting stud into a fine everyday hitter, I can't help but wonder what happened to Mike Diaz. Posted by bkopec @ 1:59 PM. It's just not the same without Lanny Frattare. No doubt about it. O'NEILL: Ac...
