I’m not sure how Zoner found this, but it made me laugh a few times.  For some reason this weird white dude thinks that Carlos Zambrano has a cheesy racist asian accent, but that doesn’t take too much away from the humor (and possibly adds to it).  the key here is that the “artist” combined [...]

Oh Big Z, your theatrics are always entertaining (and sometimes frustrating).  Frustrated with his 2009 season, Zambrano lashed out at himself with a lovely hissy fit:
“Look, this is the only season I haven’t won 16 or 18 or 14 games,” he said. “If it happens again next season, two seasons in a row, I’ll quit. [...]

Milton Bradley’s mother chimes in on Milton’s problems with the Cubs.  Racism and negativity abound in this article. [Tribune]
I’ve been hinting at this for many years, but there is mathematical proof that you should almost NEVER punt, kick a field goal, or attempt a PAT.  Over the course of the season those things create less [...]

Deron Williams dressed up like a goof with recspecs, a ghostbusters tee, and high socks playing dodgeball.  You have to see it to believe it. [BDL]
I don’t usually link to this kind of stuff, but Maria Sharapova is a real looker. [Sharapova's Thigh]
So the Milwaukee Bucks are still an NBA team, at least for fantasy [...]

Over the weekend, two of the big stars on the Chicago sports scene said some idiotic things.  Surprisingly enough, Ozzie Guillen wasn’t one of them (I mean I’m sure Ozzie said a lot of stupid things, but I wasn’t paying attention to him).  What I’m talking about are Zambrano’s “lazy” comment as well as Cutler [...]

I’m not entirely sure if this is a real voicemail, or if any of this story is true, but either way it is one of the funniest things I have heard in a while.  Over at Hire Jim Essian, they received an email from a loyal Cubs fan regarding his “relationship” with Larry Rothschild.  Here’s [...]

In the last month  or so, 4 pitchers have notched their 100th wins in the major leagues. Carlos Zambrano started  the milestone march, hitting the century mark on June 5th.  Brad Penny then followed on June 17th, with Ted Lilly and Josh Beckett reaching their marks on July 11th and 12th respectively.  Each traveled their [...]

Remembering Air McNair from his college days.  [Paneech]
Did anyone read that Phil Rogers piece the other day about how Zambrano should be waived?  Yeah he’s an idiot, and here are the stats to prove big Z is one of the best pitchers in baseball over the past few years. [Wrigleyville23]
Apparently the Bulls are looking into [...]

Last week may have been the worst week the Cubs have had in 5 years.  Sure, there have been some losing teams in that period, but no one week where the wheels just came off like they did here.  The record alone– 1-6 –makes the week look better than it actually was.  Here’s a little [...]

Will someone who speaks Spanish please tell me what the hell is going on in this commercial?  It makes me laugh, but I have no idea what anything means.  Why all the wardrobe changes?

Zambrano just recently returned from his 6-day suspension.  After his start on Thursday was rained out, he started in Cincinnati last night.  Not only did he pitch a gem, but he also hit a solo shot early on in the Cubs 2-1 victory.  As we all know, Carlos is a switch-hitter, but for some reason [...]

The bullpen is the key to this Cubs team.  Regardless of hitting, when the ‘pen is working, the team is winning.  Same goes for the other way around, and boy did they blow a gem by Randy Wells last night. [Sun-Times]
Oh and Zambrano is missing team flights now. [Tribune]
And did I mention Milton Bradley left [...]

Zambrano’s ejection was nothing new from the volatile ace.  We’ve seen fights with teammates, Red Bull-fueled tantrums, and screaming matches with whatever or whomever he’s talking to when he yells at the sky.  About a week after hearing he was demonstrative toward umps and teammates in his rehab start, Z was tossed yesterday.
The explosion after the [...]

If you haven’t seen it, here’s the video of Big Z blowing his top after a highly questionable call.  Not only was the call a bad one, but if you look closely on the replay towards the end of the clip, it appears the ump may have initiated the contact.

Surprise surprise, Milton Bradley thinks Z’s [...]

Things could be looking a lot worse for the Cubs in mid-May with some of the problems they’ve had to start the year.  As it is the Cubbies are sitting a game and a half behind the Brewers for the division lead after being in fourth place to start the month.
Now it’s on to St. [...]
