James Wiseman suspended 12 games and fined?

I’m baffled, I’m distraught, I’m flabergasted, I’m simply at a loss for words . Former No. 1 recruit, possible No. 1 draft pick, and Memphis star freshman James Wisemen must sit out a total of 12 games. He was declared ineligible earlier this year by the NCAA in relation to moving and relocation costs thatContinueContinue reading “James Wiseman suspended 12 games and fined?”

Do you want to be a Pierogie?

Most of us on the bench have been to a Pittsburgh Pirates game and if you haven’t, I highly suggest it. The product that they put on the field is swinging upward with the hiring of General Manager Ben Cherington and Team President Travis Williams. But that’s not why I’m suggesting you check out aContinueContinue reading “Do you want to be a Pierogie?”

The Great Blogdini: Josh Allen is NOT Nate Peterman

Hey Guys, Blogdini here and I want to set the record straight here on this beautiful Monday morning. There was some slander thrown around the bench on Sunday during the Buffalo Bills and New York Jets game.

The Great Blogdini: Here’s the REAL QB Whisperer

Hey Guys, Blogdini here. You don’t know me very well right now but you will, I promise you that. I just wanted to drop by this morning to give you some news. There was a big debate swirling around the Bench over Labor Day Weekend.

Do the Yankees have the scariest lineup of all-time?

In my 27 years of life I have seen some pretty scary lineups, but I do not believe I have ever seen a line-up that is as scary as this New York Yankees lineup at full health. Before the season even started they had two of the game’s most prolific power hitters in Giancarlo StantonContinueContinue reading “Do the Yankees have the scariest lineup of all-time?”

Greg Mac’s Weekly MLB Breakdown

Okay, I’ll admit it. Other than podcasts over the past few weeks I’ve pretty much ben a ghost for Thoughts From The Bench. Ever since the Pirates-Reds brawl, I’ve pretty much been checked out. I can’t really explain it. Baseball is a sport I love to watch, talk about, and dig into. It’s something specialContinueContinue reading “Greg Mac’s Weekly MLB Breakdown”
