Alyssa Milano’s baseball blog, which is called *touch* ‘em all for some reason, features her love of the Dodgers and her love of her new MLB clothing line for women—touch. Oh, I get it.
Hilarious excerpt:
And what’s going on with the Dodgers clubhouse in total disarray? My take is that Grady’s inconsistency with his lineups this entire year put the youth and the veterans in direct competition with each other. Had Grady solidified a youth-dominant lineup, only making adjustments when necessary, I believe it would have given everyone time to adjust to their positions on the team and how they were to be utilized. Instead, with his constant shifting, he got a divided clubhouse with a “may the best man win” attitude.
Elisha Cuthbert’s hockey blog, which doesn’t have a name and hasn’t been updated since 2005.
P.S. — I encourage everyone to throw hats on the ice after any hat trick. LOLLove,
Elisha
And that’s all of them.
Kim Bauer's blog appears to be called Hollywood Hockey Thoughts. LOL.
LOL.
Lame.
"I, on the other hand, am just an actress who loves the sport and does not play -- but that doesn't mean I can't talk about it!"
Teehee!
Amelia, drop me a note at amykate@thestranger.com!
less pseudo-analytical baseball jibber-jabber, more photos of your rack.
Female celebrities are so dumb about sports. Only male celebrity sports bloggers are smart, like the one who said he'd throw a fastball at a gay batter's head or the one who is an expert on learning sports lessons from Jesus.
Weird. Garth Brooks used to have a children charity called Touch'em All that was somehow Little League related. I think it's since changed it's name, for obvious reasons.
"Touch 'em all" refers to BASES, after a home run, not the precious little children people or Alyssa Milano's smelly undergarments.
I think it was originally the catch phrase of Minnesota Twins radio announcer Herb Carneal, but I could be wrong.
Ummm, Anthony, are you not aware that touch 'em all means hit a homerun? Methinks you ought to read Alyssa's blog more often.
PS. What's so "hilarious" about her excerpt? The Dodgers' unwillingness to play James Loney, Matt Kemp, and other talented kids for much of the year quite possibly explains their absence from postseason play. Alyssa's terminology may be a bit odd, but it's no less babble-icious than your standard sportswriting.
Precisely, N: the old, overvalued, overentitled veterans versus the young guys who can actually play baseball is THE story of the Dodgers this year. And some other teams I could mention....
Gee Fnarf, I can't imagine coughSexson which team coughWeaver you might be coughVidro thinking about.
No, I didn't know "touch 'em all" means a home-run, but know I do. I have no opinion on female vs male sports intelligence whatsoever. The excerpt was "hilarious" because it wasn't hilarious. See? It was serious baseball analysis.
I think we all get that it's a baseball reference, but if grown-ups are allowed to follow professional sports, then we're also entitled to giggle like 13 years olds at its pervy sounding colloquialisms, damnit!
...particularly when those pervy colloquialisms are paired with "serious" baseball analysis* that may or may not have been penned by the same woman who was also commissioned to sell a line of baseball "gear" [and by "gear" i mean "slutty tops with plunging necklines that are legitimized by a virtually inconspicuous baseball team logo"]
*which arguably does not exist, as the pairing of "serious" and "baseball" is a mind-fucking contradiction of terms
Test.
