Quickshots: Whither The Tribe
- Before the season started, Cleveland was labeled as the team to beat in the AL Central. That's what the White Sox have been doing, beating them. Clayton Richard has the ball and the broom this afternoon at U.S. Commiskey Park.
- How does a loaded lineup like the Indians fall so far? Their pitching is awful. Offensively, they have solid players at every position who are all having off years. Too bad they won't trade the Sox Grady Sizemore.
- The White Sox get a little help from the Yankees, but even Zack Greinke can stop the surging Motor City Kitties.
- It can only be Jared. In the same story, Ozzie better watch it before Rev. Al comes after him.
- Gobble, Gobble gone. (MLB Trade Rumors)
- We may never know what set off Steve McNair's girlfriend, but the Nashville police think it was mounting financial problems and the possibility that McNair was about to dump her for the next big thing. He also wasn't happy with the unwanted attention her DUI arrest brought. Officials say McNair was shot as he slept before she turned the gun on herself. One story even said she wanted to be found in his lap, but after she shot herself, she fell off the couch and wound up on the floor. Irregardless of the morality, this is still a sad story, especially for McNair's family who have to bear his shame for the rest of their lives.
- Rickhouse says Paul Konerko's recent home run surge made Brandon Allen expendable. (Tremendous Upside Potential)
- J-Rod has noticed that Hawk Harrelson has added something to his home run call (Midwest Sports Fans)
- Is BJ Ryan worth plucking from the bargain bin? Kenny? Kenny?
- Leave it to some guy named Lombardi to show the Packers big love. Seriously, you might still think Ted Thompson was an idiot for letting The Elderly Hillbilly go two years ago, but this kid Rodgers is a good quarterback and the Packers offense may be the best in the NFC North this season. Yes I know the Bears have Jay Cutler and no, I'm not suffering from Stockholm syndrome.
- Championships are won with character players. The Blackhawks signed them a good one yesterday.
- First it was Pat Verbeek. Then Ty Domie. Now, my other favorite goon with skills calls it a career. Are there anymore GWSs left in the NHL? Oh yeah. Forgot about Todd Bertuzzi.
- To steal a phrase from our hero and role model, "death is not an option": All soccer or all Olympics? (Deuce of Davenport)
- Here's a story on one man's opinion of the top five college announcers. I'm not a big Musberger fan, but he would make my top five. I also enjoy Ron Franklin and Brad Nessler. Sean McDonough not so much (and perhaps not at all.) I love Mike Patrick and I can't understand why he gets such grief from some of the bloggers. His chemistry with Todd Blackledge is terrific. Chris and Reis I love you, but only in the studio. of course, either of them kicks Pam Ward's ass.(The Big Lead)
- What exactly does a bench coach do? In this case, get suspended. Makes you wonder what the manager was doing at the time.
- Some of baseball's greatest managerial meltdowns.
