The good news for the Washington Nationals is that they have the rights to Stephen Strasburg after selecting him first overall in the 2009 MLB Draft. The college pitching phenom struck out almost two batter per inning this season during one of the most dominating pitching seasons on record.
The bad news? They now have to sign him. His agent, Scott Boras, is infamous around the baseball world for squeezing out every possible penny. Considering that Strasburg is a once in a decade type talent, there’s absolutely no doubt that Boras is going to try to get the pitcher a contract …read more

Don’t expect Gary Sheffield to speak at Scott Boras‘ Man of the Year dinner any time soon.
Wait, you can stop clutching your heart now. That “Man of the Year” part was hypothetical.
But what about the Detroit Tigers slugger’s feelings for his former agent? To say there’s “no love loss there” would be an understatement along the lines of “A-Rod needs to work on his delivery.” (Yes, we’re talking jokes, not throwing mechanics).
The decidely-past-expired-milk relationship concerns the 3-year, $39M contract Sheffield signed with the New York Yankees in 2003. Apparently Boras wants to get his sticky fingers on some would like a …read more

Randy Hendricks, agent to Roger Clemens, can now add “Defender of the Rocket” to his business card.
Hendricks released an 18,000-word statistical report today in response to former trainer Brian McNamee’s allegations that the would-be Hall of Famer jumped on the steroid bandwagon. Fortunately, we’ve taken the time to decode and summarize the whole shebang for you in three words: “Roger Ain’t Guilty.”

Two gentlemen whose personalities render them sports jokes waiting to happen are agent Scott Boras and everyone’s favorite Steroid King Homerun King Under Indictment, Barry Bonds.
Thanks to some solid investigative reporting by Frank & Company, new information has called into question a shady element of Scott Boras’ past. This Very Important Update, provided by Frank in the comments section of this post, is too significant to remain buried. We’re repeating the breaking news here:
Scott Boras vehemently denied a former …read more

Sundays are great. We read the Sunday paper, kick back in the afternoon, and chill out until its time for the Celtics and the Patriots, respectively, to further improve their flawless records. 
Well, it’s true, isn’t it? What do you expect a cocky New England sports fan to do, be humble about it all? That’s like asking Barry Bonds if he took steroids and expecting the truth. Oh wait . . .
Anyway, we thought we’d share with you some fun from our satire pals over at www.etruesports.com. Check out their spoof of oft-sleazy agent to the superathletes, Scott Boras. All things Borat tickle …read more
