Random Thoughts: There's No Defense For The White Sox
Random thoughts while wondering whatever happened to Rod Craig:
- You aren't going to win a whole lot of games if on the first play of the inning, you hurl the ball into your own dugout and then, in a crucial situation, your fifth string third baseman, who can't really play third at all, can't stop a hard ground ball. Another game where the White Sox snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. Twinkie anyone?
The Dodgers spank Ryan Dumpster and beat the Cubbies 7-4. The Brewers were busy selling playoff tickets and didn't feel like playing, but gained a ½ game in the process and are now tied. The Cardinals pounded Pittsburgh and are a game out. Of course, that's before it was reveled that the Cardinals secret weapon apparently has a secret weapon. Rick Ankeil meet former senator Mitchell. Some year for the genius, huh?- Thanks to Lovie Smith's poor personnel judgment in the final pre-season game, on Sunday , the part of Greg Olsen will be played by Desmond Clark
- The yokel lawyer that sued the University of Arkansas and everyone else and his cousin has been found in contempt of court for continuing to press for discovery after he was laughed out of court.
- Cincinnati looked very impressive against Oregon State last night. It makes you think that their going to the Big East did improve their program. Louisville and MTSU scheduled a football game but held a track meet in a mind numbing display of offense and a total disregard for defense. Somewhere, Mouse Davis is smiling.
- Peyton Manning and the Dolts send a big message: "We ain't done yet." I loved the exterior shots of Hoosierville that NBC showed last night. "Farmer Borwn's outhouse, a landmark here in Hoosierville" and of course "There's corn John, as far as the eye can see. It's like being in Schaumburg surrounded by a corn field. What a crappy excuse for a city that hick haven is. BTW, Saints DB Jason David was hospitalized after the game with burns over his entire body. Mostly wind burn.
- Been there, done that, got the t-shirt, wouldn't touch him with a ten foot pole.
- Some fine Bear humor from Chicago Sports review.
- It's never over until the fat man stops singing.
- When addressing drunken school girls in New Zealand, best pronounce their name correctly.
- Mario Batali denies being cooked at Food Network. He's also sleeping with Gwynnith Paltrow. Damn, Mario, remember to wear your chef's hat or you'll have a bun in the oven.
- A 65 year old women is carded while attempting to purchase a bottle of wine. Here's why: If they card everyone, no one can say they were treated differently. But damn, at my age, being carded is not flattering, it's stupid.
- In Green Bay, receiving a burnt pizza qualifies for a 911 call.
