-Before the Cubs and White Sox began their annual cross-town series of games, I assumed the Cubs would sweep at Wrigley and the Sox would sweep at the Cell the following weekend. However, having seen how the Cubs manhandled the Sox, essentially looking like a far more superior team than anyone would have thought, I think the Cubs have a chance of winning at least one, if not two, games on the South Side this coming weekend.
-Sox manager Ozzie Guillen said after Saturday's loss to the Cubs that he wasn't afraid of Jim Edmonds, even though Edmonds hit two home runs in that game. Ozzie, if you weren't afraid of Edmonds, how come you intentionally walked him in last nights game?
-If you watched the video previous to this post, you saw the late George Carlin pretty well sum up the differences between baseball and football. Not only that, but you got a classic example of what made Carlin great: not only was he funny and insightfully observant, but he made wonderful use of the English language. For all those reasons and more, Carlin endured in show business for nearly 50 years. He will be missed.
amen
