Quickshots: Blackhawks Hit Choke Instead of Gas
- If you are going to watch a Chicago Blackhawks game, make sure you do it before the third period. Another late game meltdown saw the Hawks losing a critical game in a shootout to Phoenix last night. Blowing two two goal leads in the game, you really start to wonder how well these guys are going to do in the playoffs. It's obvious that the goaltending that Stan Bowman promised us was good enough, clearly is not.
- Twins closer Joe Nathan is out for the year. Before you purchase your advance playoff tickets White Sox fans, read the paragraph below. And realize the Twins are still pretty good. As are the Tigers.(Via MLB Trade Rumors)
- The White Sox keep saying closer Bobby Jenks is okay, even when he is not. Jenks had an MRI done on his calf yesterday.
- Speaking of the White Sox, Ozzie Guillen must be ready to go crazy. A day after telling his son to quit the White Sox organization, his team played the "B" version of the offensively challenged Padres and lost 4-1. If I ruled the world, Brent Morel would be getting a serious look at third. At least he can play defense.
- I think it's obvious that Clear Channel put the kibosh on the Kornheiser-Lance Armstrong bicycle feud topic as a way to not promote ESPN. That's the only reason that makes sense to me.
- Your Chicago White Sox all decade team of the 00's. Jim Parque, Sandy Alomar Jr. and Royce Clayton will not be pleased.
- While I agree that I enjoy college football Saturdays more than the "big dance", a college football playoff would be the be all and end all. (Via "The Big Lead")
- Chicago continues it's assault by Peppers.
- For those of you that think Lovie is confused, that Dick Jauron was incompetent and the Stuttering Dave was a total moron, you need to see this. If you don't know who this guy is and you never saw one of his team's play, you are definitely younger than 35. I'm older than 35 and I saw his teams play. Wow. Even I'd take Stuttering Dave over Big Abe. (Chicago Sports Mob)
- When Joe Montana played for the 49ers, he was truly Captain Comeback. Now, he's just Captain Obvious.
- It seemed like I picked Kansas every year in the big dance and every year I'd be out by the third round. Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me a whole crap load of times and I pick someone else. This year I'm really glad I did.
- If this actually works, send Mike Helton to either the Middle East or Iraq.
- It's two weeks before the season and already Milton Bradley is back in the news. Here's a little news flash, Milton. Carl Everett had a reputation of being a bigger prick than you (if that's possible), yet when he was with the White Sox not only was he a model citizen, he helped them win a championship. Focus on playing Milton, not how everyone hates you. You bring that crap on yourself. (Can't Stop The Bleeding)
- If a league avoids a strike and nobody gives a rat's ass does it make a sound?
- In honor of Oney Guillen:
