• Stealing Time: Fred Phelps thinks Santa Claus molests children

  Fred Phelps is spreading joy to all the boys and girls of Washington state with a special holiday message: "Santa Claus will take you to hell." Phelps, pastor of Topeka's least popular church, wants his Christmas cheer included in Washington's state capitol next to a nativity scene and an atheist sign. But Phelps' message wouldn't be complete unless he slandered Santa Claus as a child molester and blames the deaths of American soldiers on the jolly old elf. Westboro's members aren't the only loc

• Joe Po unveils Zack Greinke SI cover

  Kansas City Star columnist Joe Posnanski previews his Sports Illustrated cover story on Royals pitcher Zack Greinke with a first look at the cover. Love the tease: "He's been a phenom and a bust. He's walked away and come back. He's been a starter and a reliever, a genius and a flake and he's only 25, right now ... The Best Pitcher in Baseball." Cool cover. But it doesn't sound like Greinke is too excited about the cover, the first by a Royal since 1993. "They'll probably sell their least amount

• MLB confirms awesomeness of Royals' Zack Greinke, gives him an LCD TV

  Seriously. Who else could baseball possibly name pitcher of the month? Not even going to name anyone else. No one is more worthy than the Royals' Zack Greinke. Yesterday, Major League Baseball named Greinke April's American League Pitcher of the Month. Behold Greinke's awesomeness in April: Greinke is 5-0.His ERA is a ridiculous .50, allowing only two earned runs on 24 hits.He's struck out 44 batters and walked eight.He leads all of baseball in wins, complete games, ERA and strikeouts.He shut ou

• A tale of two Hochevar headlines

  On Tuesday, the Royals' Luke Hochevar's self-assessment, "he's clicking."Today, he's ugly.Eight runs in two innings. To the Oakland A's. Welcome to the show.In other Royals news:The Onion reports that the team, unable to find themselves in the standings, has filed a grievance with Major League Baseball.David Glass is still one of the worst owners in baseball. And Friday's game, with golden goose Zack Greinke pitching, is almost sold out.

• Help us, Zack Greinke. You're our only hope

  The Royals are on a six game skid (ah, reality) and in a three-way tie for first place in the AL Central (unreal). Tonight, David Glass' golden goose, Zack Greinke, takes the mound before a damn-near sold out crowd. Will Zack Greinke pull the Royals out of their rut?And remember Royals fans, the first 20,000 fans at Saturday night's game get a replica stadium. Try not to chuck them on the field if the boys in powder blue lose. We don't need a "disco demolition night" flashback.

• JoPo didn't totally curse the Cavs and ruin the NBA Finals ... yet

  Joe Posnanski damn near ruined the NBA Finals -- at least the championship game NBA Commissioner David Stern fantasizes about -- LeBron vs. Kobe -- when he rubs one out. The finals that Nike assumes you want to see. JoPo may have doomed his hometown Cleveland Cavaliers and King James by writing a cover story in the cursed Sports Illustrated. The Orlando Magic led the Cavs three games to one going into last night's win or go home game five.Just a few days before game five -- and after getting fl

• Zack Greinke is an all star

  Cue that shitty Smash Mouth song -- or not. David Glass' golden goose is an all star. Zack Greinke's peers voted him on the team -- more than any other player.  They should have given his record (10-4) and his ERA (2.00) and a whole bunch of other things that stat geeks would freak over. Oh, and the Royals won yesterday, which means they're only nine games back. Ugh.Photo courtesy of Chris Vleisides/Kansas City Royals
