Just back from Dallas. Jamey Newberg and the Newberg Report crew put on one heck of a party. 120 passionate baseball fans, a Rangers-A's game for first, and ... well, let's just say I had a great time. I hope Jamey makes this an annual event.

So, I've been in the air most of the day on my least-favorite airline (Northwest). Luckily, I missed nothing. The Dodgers-Fish deal waited until I'd landed and the Mets-Rays deal came shortly after. The Pirates finally dealt off Benson, Charles Johnson may be a Dodger, and the Big Prize is pitching in Colorado, still a D-Back.

There's still time, so who knows what might happen. There's a number of teams playing deadline chicken, but in the end, the real winner looks like Paul DePodesta. Bleeping A, indeed.

I made a comment in comments but it bears repeating here. The tenor of some comments has gone from intelligent to strident to downright rude in some cases. That won't be tolerated. While I am strongly against censorship, I won't tolerate such behavior, so I'm asking you to police yourself. To continue our "Friendly Bar" metaphor, just remember there IS a bouncer.
