All these freelance articles that I wrote in different weeks are coming out at once. Today, if you're interested, I have a feature for Variety on Scrubs, which celebrates its 100th episode tonight.
Ironically, your Scrubs article finally tipped me to register and post (which I'm loathe to do these days). It's great to see an intelligent and a clearly dedicated baseball person write about varied and interesting topics - I love Scrubs and the Michael Bluth reference. Your post early in Jan about the winter blues also struck a chord with me.
Your blog makes it easier for me to argue to my wife that 1 hr/day on the computer is not too much time to be spending reading about the Dodgers.
Great work, great blog - keep it up!
But I remember an interview with Lawrence over the summer where he basically said he'd do whatever they wanted since they were sick of NBC jerking them around in terms of time slot and such. So I was looking forward to the new season.
