Random Thoughts: Piniella, We Don't Need No Stinkin' Piniella
Random thoughts while wondering whatever happened to Andrew "Quiche" Lorraine:
- It must really scare Cub fans (or delight them, who knows) that they bring in the high profile, big name manager and he can't the team to play worth a damn. Yet his top assistant, with a career .382 winning percentage leads them to two wins in a row. And, he's got two games left.
- Look, Alfonso Soriano!
- The White Sox did everything by the book last night. They scored early and often, got great starting pitching from Judy Garland and had some timely hits. They still left too many men on base and Matt Thornton honored the memory of David Aardsma and Mike MacUseless, but this was a good win. They need several more like this, hopefully all coming together.
- Look, Paul Konerko!
- Do not let it be said that Roger Goodell is without mercy. Let it be said he is without consistency.
- IN the chase for Lord Stanley's cup, give the Ducks some credit. They overcame the suspension of Chris Pronger and a fired up Ottawa crowd to position themselves for a victory celebration Wednesday night on the Pond.
- On a day where NASCAR loses one of it's big guns, Martin Truex Junior wins his first cup race and perhaps saves the season for DEI.
- The nut who sued the University of Arkansas over the Mitch Mustain e-mails made a hero out of the judge, who threw it out of court. If the suit were allowed to proceed and the nut job win, it would have set a precedent that would have been ugly.
- Phillip Wellman is out a few bucks and a few games, but he is still our hero. When your tirade upstages even Lou Piniella, that says something about you.
- The Narcissistic Basketball Association is about to sign a rich, new TV contract providing boredom to the masses for many years to come. I hate this game.
Memo to Butkus D. Dogg: I always told you that you were a lot smarter than you let on. Dogs and teenagers have a lot in common.- A woman, drunk and naked, enters a house and starts beating on the woman who lives there. Only one slight problem: It was the wrong house.
- Sam Waterston is about to move into Fred Thompson's chair on Law & Order. This is a bad move. It's like letting Hawkeye run the 4077th or Wojo run the 12th Precinct. You need to use that role as a foil, not a major player. Please rethink it , Dick Wolf.
- Most women would rather eat chocolate than have sex. That's because chocolate doesn't roll over and snore.
