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 [...]

So I don’t get it; Does Jerome James salary count against the Bulls cap or not? [Blogabull]
Scott Boras may be evil, but the real bad guys are Baseball ownership, who have somehow managed to make ridiculous profits while at the same time been able to make players seem selfish for trying to get paid 1/100th [...]

Home Run Derby recently ran a piece on some of the funniest baseball autographs ever.  While they are all funny, there were a few that literally made me laugh out loud.  This one from Vernon Wells directed at some hecklers may be the best one:

The debate rages on over night games in Wrigleyville.  I personally have an aversion to them for 2 reasons.  The first is that I lived in Wrigleyville and its a residential neighborhood.  The people who live there have been promised over and over again that traffic and noise issues would be controlled and have been [...]

I wish I could have trash talked Obama at the Bulls-Wizards game like this joker.  [D.C. Sports Bog]
