This brings me so much joy! My love for The Simpsons and baseball came at the near same time for me as a young kid. It was only until my later years in high school did I start to really enjoy and appreciate The Simpsons. At the same time, my passion for baseball bloomed to […]

I could watch this over and over again. This is why Allen Iverson is so revered. His passion on and off the court is all real. Share this: Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) Click to share on Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Pinterest (Opens in new window) […]

This is Eddie DeBartolo’s Hall of Fame speech. This was a speech we have been waiting for a long time. I personally love all the talk about family and that is what made Eddie D so beloved. But it’s that final story about how Bill Walsh prepared a gift for Eddie D for his induction […]

Sources on @TheVertical: Rockets great Yao Ming voted for enshrinement into Basketball Hall of Fame’s Class of 2016. https://t.co/GL6x7c1KUU — The Vertical (@TheVertical) March 30, 2016 Apparently his qualifications to the Hall of Fame isn’t as clear cut to some people. Despite his shortened NBA career, that’s not why he is getting into the Hall. […]

Welcome to immortality. The 2016 #HOF electees: Ken Griffey Jr. and Mike Piazza. pic.twitter.com/P7MKb3YvT7 — MLB (@MLB) January 6, 2016 I was certain these two would get in and they did. Griffey even got the highest vote percentage ever. That’s pretty cool. (How could three voters not include him?) But I look at the rest […]

As a big sports fan, I should have known this. But I didn’t realize that the Basketball Hall of Fame is only a two-hour drive from Boston. Only up to a week before my trip to the East Coast did a suggestion to go there come up. I didn’t really think the Hall of Fame […]

MLB.com Blogs The Baseball Hall of Fame’s Class of 2015 was inducted on Sunday, and INSANE SPORTS posted a reaction. Another Girl with a Sports Blog shared her thoughts on the inductions and what they mean. Fan Samuel Lam […]

The problem with having a clueless millennial help you take a photo is that it’s not straight and it’s vertical. Oh well. Sunday was the whole reason why I made this trip out to Cooperstown. It was time for the induction ceremony for four players from my generation. I was so excited to make it […]

I’m in baseball heaven pic.twitter.com/zrviWtYVKS — Samuel Lam (@SamuelYLam) July 25, 2015 What a tremendous day it was for me. I boarded my flight late Friday night, arrived in Detroit, then flew out to Albany. I rented a car and drove an hour to Cooperstown. I arrived around lunch time and the first thing I […]

The BBWAA has a lot of explaining to do. They punished Le Batard for “transferring” his vote to people who were not qualified, but it’s not like fans turned in the vote. Le Batard still had to fill in the vote and turn it in. Does it matter how he came to the conclusion he […]

Not a bad class. But the sad thing is that the Basketball Hall of Fame doesn’t get as much love and attention as the other sports. Is it just because the game’s history isn’t as historic? Share this: Share on Facebook (Opens in new window) Click to share on Twitter (Opens in new window) Click […]

I think all three should get in. If I had a vote for this year’s Baseball Hall of Fame class, this is how I’d vote. BARRY BONDS – YES ROGER CLEMENS – YES SAMMY SOSA – YES MIKE PIAZZA – YES CRAIG BIGGIO – YES CURT SCHILLING – YES SANDY ALOMAR – NO, BUT MAYBE […]
