So the Dodgers blew it. Again. How many years does this make? And all we have to show for it is that 2020 World Series that, when I look back on it, really wasn’t the same thing as winning it all after a normal season. Yeah, I’ll still say that winning in 2020 was a … Continue reading The Dodgers Choke

Hunter Gets Harassed (part 6)
Matt then took me to a conference room – not the same one they had us in the first time I came to the lawyers’ office – and another dude came in with one of those little machines they use to take down depositions and statements. I was used to that part of the process. … Continue reading Hunter Gets Harassed (part 6)
Hunter Gets Harassed (part 5)
So the first time I met with the head of HR at the network that airs At Home with Maya to discuss my situation – I was being sexually harassed by a woman who, when I turned her down, accused me of harassing her – they called it a ‘meeting’ and not a ‘hearing’ and … Continue reading Hunter Gets Harassed (part 5)
Hunter Gets Harassed (part 4)
Turns out I didn’t need a lawyer for the ‘hearing’ about the sexual harassment complaint that was launched against me after I turned down one of the network executives’ (a chick) offers to get me an acting career if I’d sleep with her. They didn’t even call it a ‘hearing’, but, rather, just a ‘meeting’. … Continue reading Hunter Gets Harassed (part 4)
Hunter Gets Harassed (part 3)
After an executive from the network gave me an ultimatum – sexual favors or she’d report me for sexual harassment of her, all I wanted to do was get as far away from her house as I could, so I literally ran to the shitbox and drove home. I waited until I was there to … Continue reading Hunter Gets Harassed (part 3)
Lucas on the Show
So we’ve come up with a few segments for the show where I have a special guest to help me show the audience some things about baseball that I can’t demonstrate with the boys. The special guest is Lucas, who already appeared on one episode right after he got back from college for the summer. … Continue reading Lucas on the Show
Another Saturday Night at the Volcano (part 1)
It’s been a long time since I’ve told y’all anything about the good ole Volcano. But I went last Saturday night and it was almost like the ‘old days’ – i.e. before COVID. Yes: Keaton still has his job there, even if he’s driving for Amazon too. I asked him about why he still works … Continue reading Another Saturday Night at the Volcano (part 1)
Now I’m Back (I mean it this time)
Ok, so maybe I lied and I wasn’t back. But now I am. It’s not that my tailbone was still bothering me so much that I couldn’t sit, but, well, you get out the habit of doing something and it gets hard to get back into the habit. Turns out that’s super true about blogs. … Continue reading Now I’m Back (I mean it this time)
NLCS Game 5
That was obviously more like it. But I’ll admit it: like just about anyone else watching the game last night, seeing Freeman get that homer and the having Kelly (who’s been great all season) go down worried the fuck outta me. I just didn’t have the feeling that we could do it the way we … Continue reading NLCS Game 5
NLCS Game 4
Ok, so yesterday I told Jacob that you should never leave a baseball game before it was over. After all, “it ain’t over ‘til it’s over” was first said by a ballplayer, and Tuesday’s game proved the saying. And then last night happened. Both me and Jacob were ready to turn the TV off before … Continue reading NLCS Game 4
