for all practical purposes, baseball in chicago came to an end this week as the white sox proved once again that they can't play with the big boys by getting whacked on consecutive nights by the angels and falling 7 games behind the streaking tigers, who have won 16 of the last 24 while the sox were playing (guess what?) .500 baseball prior to this weekend.
against the big 6 in the american league, the sox are 20-29 and are doomed to a losing record vs. winning teams as they only have six games left against the tigers in september. (i eliminated cleveland fron the equation because they're also pretenders at .500) BUT WAIT! that means the rest of their games are against struggling ball clubs, right?? that's correct but guess what? they have a cumlative record of 11-16 against minnesota, kansas city & toronto so i do believe the handwriting is clearly written on the wall. it would take a TOTAL collapse by the tigers for the sox to have a chance. so who's responsible for this mess? read on.
KENNY WILLIAMS must be held accountable for this fiasco known as jake peavey, alex rios and adam dunn. he accepted all the kudos in 2005 for building a winner so now he must face the firing squad for strangling this franchise financially for the next 4 years. pro sports are based on 'what have you done for me lately' and always have been because you're paid to produce and kenny has failed miserably. when you start getting compared to jim hendry, it's really time to start packing. RICK HAHN will slide right into the GM slot.
OZZIE GUILLEN? i think he's gone to florida. ozzie won't stay if kenny does and that's pretty much a sure thing but even if kenny is given his walking papers, ozzie might find that job with the marlins irresistible because his entire family is in florida. p.s.--if ozzie goes south, watch for juan pierre to follow as his contact runs out this year and he's an unrestricted free agent.
so the sox didn't make it to labor day and the north siders were done by memorial day. the bulls are on strike and hockey is two months away so THANK GOD the nfl settled their differences. GO BEARS!

what goes around.....
want to fill a stadium? just take all the sychophantic cub fans who actually thought that carlos zambrano would take them to the promised land and it should be s.r.o. but cub fans are liars by nature so maybe they don't fill the stadium but it would be close.
AS I TOLD ALL OF YOU pie in the sky NORTH SIDERS five years ago, IT IS HIS FAULT and always has been. the dustup with michael barrett, the finger pointing at derrek lee (of all people), getting thrown out on opening day (WHO DOES THAT?) the tantrums and disrespect of his team mates...........ALL HIS FAULT. you bought into the hype that he was just a passionate guy who wanted to win so badly but he is just a punk who would be in the latin kings street gang if not playing baseball. you should all be ashamed of yourselves for defending him the last five years and not recognizing him for the piece of crap that he was and is.
and that includes bob rychel, peter breit (who also stated "alfonso soriano is worth every penny"), bobby lucas, nephew mark, robert breit, nephew frank and big hollow ron who defended him at one time or another. shhhhhhhhhhhh. go stand in the corner.
and if the cubs even whisper that they're taking him back and you don't boycott or switch teams, then the intelligence level for cub fans is even worse than i thought. "mr. ricketts, please report for your testosterone test."
when i write about how bad cubs management is and you disagree, just read the following: zambrano, carlos silva, todd hundley, milton bradley, sammy sosa, glen allen hill.....liars, drunks, wife beaters, sociopaths, psychos, steroid abusers.........just who picks these guys? you act like that on the south side and you're history. just ask carl everett, david wells or nick swisher. don't want to be a team player??? cancer in the locker room?? disrespectful to management or the fans?? bye-bye
hey, if zambrano needs a buddy for the next thirty days, please have him call adam dunn because believe me, he won't be missed.
sox within 4 games and it feels like a million. and i say again....adam dunn is solely responsible for them not being in first place.
bears will be 8-8 this year and the hated packers will be dominant. if aaron rodgers stays healthy, brett favre will simply become a footnote in packer history. remember, the drug addicted, drunken hillbilly won ONE super bowl and rodgers is tied with him already.
corey wooten is still my favorite bears' defensive lineman for putting favre on a slab that cold december day. outstanding.
why do we have the WNBA? no one attends the games and women are dreadfully boring attempting to play basketball. if you had to eliminate one team....would it be the chicago sky or the chicago fire?
daniel carcillo is about to become the toast of madison street when the blackhawks take the ice this season. he adds a physical presence and toughness they lacked last year and if he gets a little smarter about penalties, he'll get some of the biggest cheers at introduction time.
so an overdue goodbye to cub fans (actually due around july 1st) and we'll see you next year as you slink to the ball park to cheer on 'iowa west' for the next 4 years. perfect. ciao!!

for ladies only
i've been down with a bad back for a couple of weeks and had a chance to read EVERYTHING and watch all the news channels. here goes!
the black community is up in arms because a 6 year old girl was killed by random gunfire over the weekend. this is the same community that won't cooperate with police investigations, whether the officer is black or white. my prayers to the family but screw them.
another example: an off duty officer saves a 15 year old from a gang beating but the victim refuses to prosecute. and the black community wonders why indifference infects cops called to those communities for 'hot calls'. there is no respect for the general laws of society and they strongly believe in the law of the jungle. "the strongest & loudest survive." ok, police yourself.
speaking of no respect.....a black woman in maywood is pistol whipped by her husband. she phones the police. they respond and the husband opens fire on the officers, striking one dead center in his bullet proof vest. the cops return fire and put the offender on life support. the pistol whipped wife is already talking lawsuit for police brutality. go figure.
oprah's OWN network is bleeding red ink and should be out of business in less than three years. good riddance. the only thing that will save her is if she resumes her talk show.
rod blagojevich will be sentenced october 6th. i think 12 years in prison should adjust his attitude and his haircut.
did you see where the local surgical centers have been cited for infection problems? hawthorn surgi-center in libertyville and north shore endoscopy in lake bluff are both on the list. swell.
the 30 navy seals who died in afghanistan reaffirm my belief. screw those people and bring our men & women home NOW. it's been ten years and enough is enough.
hey, take the time to watch RIZZOLI & ISLES on TNT at (9:00 on monday nights.) angie harmon(law & order) is a cop and sasha alexander (ncis) is a medical examiner. the plots are easy to follow and harmon's wry humor captivates for the entire hour.
does anyone else stick their lottery tickets on the refridgerator with a magnet and check them, like once every 6 weeks?
like our 'hot' weather this summer? dallas has had 38 consecutive days over 100 degrees with the LOWEST temperature at any time 87 degrees. at 3 in the morning. yowsa. el paso went 4 MONTHS with no rain.
final year for 'rescue me' and 'desperate housewives'. rescue me is outstanding television but DH should have died two years ago.
football is back. if you have any questions about the basics of the game, just ask and i'll be happy to explain. bye for now.
