2012 MLB Preview: Part VI

No TV post tonight, because there's no new Grey's Anatomy and I don't think I have anything to say about an Idol results show that isn't self-evident. So instead, I'll wrap up the division predictions today with The Only Division That Matters If You Work In Sports Media, aka the AL East.

Terrible TV Live Blog: American Idol Top 9

Coming to you live from a basement, it's the debut of RtH's Terrible TV Live Blog series! We'll hopefully get through the next 120 minutes without plunging into the depths of suicidal depression. Probably. Since tonight's Idol night, I really can't say for sure.

Tonight's the Top 9 performance night of American Idol, and the theme is "Your Own Personal Idol." Since I've actually read the entire list of songs Idol has the rights to, this is more like "You sing what we tell you to sing!" night, just like every other week on this show. And since the clear frontrunners are two young, attractive women with fantastic voices, we're just 9 weeks away from crowning another white guy with a guitar champion. This'll be a long one, so let's go!

2012 MLB Preview: Part V

We're down to the two best divisions in baseball. They're also the two where no prediction is any better than throwing ducks at balloons. So let's see if nothing is as it seems in the NL East, after the jump.

2012 MLB Preview: Part IV

This post is being written as the regular season officially gets underway. Seattle takes on Oakland in Japan, starting at 5 AM my time. Seems like I should have checked to see if MLB blocked internet radio broadcasts from Seattle and Oakland before setting my alarm for 4:45. If I were in England I'd be able to listen to the BBC and hear dudes with English accents talking about an American game being played in Japan, which would have been great in a "Death Row Records week on American Idol" kind of way. Oh well, I'll settle for keeping an eye on the GameCast. The division that will have a team alone in first place in about 3 hours, after the jump.

2012 MLB Preview: Part III

With the first two divisions behind us, every entry from here on out will include at least one possible World Series winner. The NL Central's secrets are exposed, after the jump.

2012 MLB Preview: Part II

(Later this week, there will be at least one post on mental illness and what I do about it, and at least three posts on terrible television, which I assume will end up as this blog's focus. For now, more baseball after the jump. 'Cause baseball.)

Quote of the Day- March 24, 2012

"I can't stop chattering my teeth. Drinking helps, but then I can't stop screaming."

2012 MLB Preview: Part I

So, instead of jumping into a discussion on social issues, politics, or the future of our planet, I'm gonna start off writing about something that really matters. BASEBALL. One division at a time, from worst to best until we've crowned a World Series champion in March. We'll get to Frothy and the Republibot later. Sound good? AL Central, after the jump.
