2017 IBWAA Awards Ballot!

As we stand on the precipice of the end of another baseball season, we finally get the part where we argue about awards!

This is the second year that I’ve had a ballot in the IBWAA (Internet Baseball Writers Association of America) year-end awards selection and, as I said last year, it’s something I take pretty seriously because I completely understand how serious fans take it.

Trust me, I got hammered last year on Twitter with people who vehemently disagreed with my ballot and while I felt I was able to justify selections, it did serve as a reminder to ensure that no fuckery occurs.

This was a helluva season, wasn’t it? Big injuries, bigger homers, fun streaks and disappointing, wastes of seasons (coughMetscough). All that action is setting up for a very fun October with a number of intriguing postseason matchups, but before we get there, we have to give out some awards. Final tallies will be revealed after this weekend, but – in the meantime – I can tell you where my votes went. So here we go: fuckery not included.

Ep. 51: Movie Catch-Up

We have a helluva episode for you this week. We update the progress of the NHL playoffs and why Joe’s a hockey genius, why we love watching greatness in sports, why Joe says you can’t have it both ways with the mixing of politics and sports, follow up on the biggest bands of 1999-2000 and why neither of us saw BAYWATCH or PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN.

We then catch up with some movies from this year including xXx: THE RETURN OF XANDER CAGE, LOGAN NOIR and the live-action BEAUTY AND THE BEAST.

Talk about The Office, Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt, Master of None, Who’s The Boss, Diff’rent Strokes, Millie Bobby Brown, Offspring songs and more. It’s a loaded episode. You’ll love it.

Ep. 43: A League Of Their Own

A new week, a new episode! This time around, Joe heads to Universal Orlando to try the new King Kong ride, the boys go over the 400 hour-long Wrestlemania show and then they get all baseball on you by watching the classic, A LEAGUE OF THEIR OWN, and discussing and predicting the 2017 MLB season. It’s an absolutely packed episode!
