Do you remember where you were when the Ben Davis Era (TM) ended? Neither do I. Let’s face it, that’s not the sort of thing one remembers in a life full of Things That Matter (TM).
(What’s up with all the TM’s, anyway? Or as I like to say, WUWATTA? (TM))
Quick refresher: The Padres took Davis [...]

Contest: Guess the Padres’ 2008 Opening Day Roster

In honor of the Padres’ first Cactus League game (a charity event against the Mariners @ 12:05 p.m. PT, XM 180), and to celebrate the release of the Ducksnorts 2008 Baseball Annual, it’s time for the second annual Ducksnorts “Guess the Padres’ Opening Day Roster” contest. Here’s how it works:

Bumps in the Road

Quiet. Did you hear that? It’s the sound of people jumping off the Padres bandwagon. You know, because three games always provides an accurate representation of 162 games.
I heard the jumpers. They were screaming the whole way down; it was kind of pathetic, really. Oh well, I’m sure they’ll crawl back onboard after the next [...]

Good Morning

If you can read this, it means we’re back up and running. I had something planned for this morning, back before my database became corrupt, but it will have to wait. I’ve been troubleshooting stuff for, like, four hours and I need to eat.
The gist of what I was going to say earlier is this: [...]

Not much more to say about this “rivalry” that hasn’t already been said, so I’ll turn instead to something a reader alerted me to the other day. So far under Bud Black’s watch, the Padres [...]

Padres Take Round One Against Rivals

Real-world stuff kept me from watching all but a few innings of this weekend’s heated series against our archrivals in Seattle, but it’s good that the Padres were able to take two out of three. No matter what else happens this season, if we can beat the Mariners, it will have been a success.
Right.
