Probably not, but you’ve got to respect the guy for donning that hat in ATL Georgia. Blue and orange hat tip to Tommy Bennett for the link.

More than 10 Dokken watches still available!
Sorry, I’m working on something longer that may or may not get up this evening. Hat tip to Can’t Stop the Bleeding for the link.
The Deadspin/FJM piece you definitely want to read
Awesome. “The fact that Omar Minaya could wrangle a functioning human man of any
kind in a trade for Frenchy ’78 OPS+’ Francoeur is a minor miracle.” And you know, I think I kind of miss Frenchy in some messed-up way. Not watching him hit, that’s for certain. But he was at least a source of endless — if endlessly frustrating — entertainment. Sigh.
Fire Joe Morgan day on Deadspin
Hilarious writers write hilarious things to promote hilarious show.
Numbers show Jets less criminal than counterparts
Kristian Dyer does the math and determines that the Jets actually get arrested less frequently than the average NFL team going back 10 years. Obviously the Bengals are your leader in the clubhouse.
Rockiecast: Truthiness by the bay
Friend and former roommate of TedQuarters Ted “Ted” Burke gnashes his teeth at the San Francisco media perpetuating rumors that the Rockies are cheating by slipping non-humidor balls into the mix in late innings in Denver.
Baseball Musings: Massive tie scenario
I voted for the Padres and Rockies in that poll earlier this week, but I will always hold out hope for the massive tie scenario. Why? Because, as David Pinto writes, should it happen, “the three NL West teams would play a two-day single elimination tournament to determine the NL West winner. The three remaining teams would then play a two-day, single elimination tournament to determine the Wild Card winner.”
Megafauna!
Apparently before the Ice Age, Australia was dominated by absolutely tremendous and awesome creatures, some of which looked a lot like modern Australian creatures, only much larger. That’s not a kangaroo, this is a kangaroo. Also: terror bird sighting.
Shattered bat stuff
Jason from It’s About the Money, Stupid examines the terrifying thing that happened to Tyler Colvin yesterday and how it could have been prevented. I don’t know much about this stuff, but it’s no secret that maple bats shatter in more dangerous fashion than ash bats and something should be done to prevent another incident like that — or worse — from happening again.
Amazin’ Avenue: R.A. Dickey Photoshop finalists
Well, obviously the folks at Amazin’ Avenue don’t appreciate art. But go vote for JoshNY or kendynamo, not only because their entries are awesome, but because they both comment here sometimes and so I’m completely biased.
