FMJRA 2.0: Gewitter

— compiled by Wombat-socho A very good week for the Senators as we hosted the Giants and Angels at RFK this week; we won two out of three in each series, getting Juan Marichal his 15th win and Jim Kaat his 9th. This week will be a little tougher since we face the Yankees on […]

FMJRA 2.0: Nowhere – now here

FMJRA 2.0: Night Owls

— compiled by Wombat-socho I am embarrassed that I forgot (until now) to pimp Hans Schantz’ Based Book Sale. Everything’s 99 cents or free, and written by authors who don’t hate you and the principles you believe in! What a concept, right? Head on over and take a look at the hundreds of books on […]

FMJRA 2.0: Run Through The Jungle

— compiled by Wombat-socho This weekend I learned that this song wasn’t about Vietnam; nonetheless, after seventy years, that’s what most people associate it with.

I’m home now, feeling better, and have another four days of Levaquin […]

FMJRA 2.0: Time For New Water Coolers

— compiled by Wombat-socho This was a bad week for the Senators. It started well enough, as we took two out of three from the Angels in Anaheim, but then we went to Shea and got swept by the Day Traders, and came home to drop two out of three to the Hated Yankees. Our […]

FMJRA 2.0: SUUUURGE!

— compiled by Wombat-socho Official soda of the 1971 Washington Senators. Our manager, of course, prefers Moxie. A fine homestand this week: first we got a split against the always-troublesome Royals, then swept the Braves in three games, which puts us just one game behind the A’s and two games up on the Twins. Our […]

FMJRA 2.0: National Radio Waves – On The Wire

— compiled by Wombat-socho Another .500 week for the Senators; we took two out of three in Montreal, including a rare win for Jim Kaat, but were not so fortunate at the Mistake by the Lake, where we lost two out of three to the Tribe. The sole win in Cleveland was the seventh for […]
