Several projects on the web worthy of your attention...
...The Courier-Post asked Rowan University to objectively evaluate the Phillies handling of the Brett Myers situation [main page here, including a PDF of the entire 68-page report from Rowan]. BS&S.com observation: It would be funny if it weren't so true. Even to this day, the Phillies are handling the issue poorly. Phillies CEO David Montgomery was a guest on Sports Talk 950 AM with Jody MacDonald. In the interview Montgomery said, "Brett knows he made a mistake." I'm sorry, was there a mistake? Didn't Myers' wife, Kim, say that he did not hurt her that night? If he didn't hurt her, what was the mistake he made?... Four months later, the team is still inconsistent in the matter. Update: Look for Michael Radano of the Courier-Post to appear on 610-WIP tommorrow [Wednesday] morning around 8 AM to discuss the series.
...Over at A Citizen's Blog, Michael Berquist is writing up a sixteen -- 16! -- part series on the 1950 Phillies, otherwise known as the Whiz Kids. BS&S.com observation: If Richie Ashburn, who led the league nine times in put outs, were alive today, he would likely say of Counselor Berquist, "The kid doesn't chew tobacco, smoke, drink, curse or chase broads. I don't see how he can possible make it." I would have to disagree however, as the series looks to be, shall we say, comprehensive-ish.
...The Iggles Blog takes a very interesting look at time-of-possession finger-pointing. BS&S.com observation: This site is a recent discovery of mine, and I can't recommend it more highly. This particular post, coincidentally, goes hand-in-hand with the post I wrote last week about the Eagles approach to offense.
