tell me that ANTHONY WEINER isn't the most appropriately named person on the face of the earth. what a dick. it wasn't enough that he had to resign as a congressman a couple of years ago for being involved in a 'sexting' scandal but now, while leading in the polls by 5% for mayor of new york, he gets caught again (i was going to use the word 'exposed' but i thought that would be overkill)
playing with another dozen women. now he trails by 9%. big surprise.
remember two years ago that weiner DENIED any wrong doing and stated that someone had hacked his account. yeah, that story worked really well. he finally admitted his involvement and resigned from congress. personally, i could care less if he is sexting every day but JUST BE HONEST ABOUT IT. he should be withdrawing from the mayoral race very soon because the big time democrats will muscle him into oblivion if he doesn't.
and what's with his wife, HUMA ABEDIN? what the hell is she thinking????
i understand giving your partner a second chance but THIRTEEN more chances? sweetie, wake up and hire a good lawyer because weenie boy is NOT GOING TO CHANGE.
a sad good-bye to DENNIS FARINA, who passed away suddenly this week. i had met farina on several occassions at charity events and he was always gracious AND interested in me being a cop. farina was a chicago cop for 18 years before leaving the job for hollywood and he insisted on reality for the many cop roles that he played but check him out in MANHUNTER, the pre-cursor to 'SILENCE OF THE LAMBS.' godspeed, my friend.
pro basketball player DWYANE WADE has to pay his ex-wife FIVE MILLION DOLLARS plus she gets 4 cars and their mansion BUT SHE'S UNHAPPY because the judge says she can't say anything bad about wade from this point on.
five million dollars and she's unhappy??????? she's a whack job who hired AND FIRED 14 different attorneys during the divorce proceedings and the judge finally told her to SHUT UP and he approved the settlement because she wouldn't approve anything. her stupidity also cost her custody of the two children. she'll be broke in three years and return to the jungle.
CONGRATULATIONS to the juror in the GEORGE ZIMMERMAN case who went public with her opinion that she felt zimmerman was guilty but she followed jury instructions to reach a fair decision. "they didn't meet the standards for murder so i voted NOT GUILTY but i think he committed murder."
good for her.
so prince george has arrived. do any of us really care?
ok, i'm done.

ALL STAR BREAK
THE CUBS will be interesting to watch over the next two weeks as they try & maximize trade value for MATT GARZA & KEVIN GREGG. what are the cubs waiting for? garza to get hurt again or a last minute deal to fall thru so he walks away at the end of the season and they get nothing? they should pull the trigger right now before CUBLUCK sets in.
p.s. what's with the love affair for JEFF SAMARDZJIA? one winning season, five games under .500 in his career and his team is 3-10 against playoff contenders in games which he startedthis season. at 28, HE would bring some heavyweight prospects in a trade. he'll be 31 before the cubs are competitive. think about it.
here's the fairest bet for cubs/sox fans that i've seen in a long time: which team will win more games in the 2nd half? can't get fairer than that.
THE WHITE SOX are a mess. they HAVE to be sellers and i don't see why ADAM DUNN isn't already wearing yankee pinstripes. MARK TEIXEIRA is out for the year and dunn would be a perfect fit with the sox eating most of the salary. they started the parade with MATT THORNTON. NOW FINISH IT!!!
ALEXEI RAMIREZ, JESSE CRAIN, MATT LINDSTROM, JAKE PEAVY AND ALEX RIOS. just pull the trigger and rebuild NOW. ask PAUL KONERKO if he wants a trade to a contender and grant his wish. it's over. and every true fan knows that. attendance, which has never been great, is plummeting like a duck on the first day of hunting season and it's only going to get worse.
the sox are operating at 55% capacity and ONLY ONE TEAM has worse overall attendance and that's the lowly MIAMI MARLINS. being 18 games under .500 spells disaster for second half crowds and the sox will be hard pressed to reach 1.5 million which is a disaster in today's baseball economy. ouch.
DERRICK ROSE says he's 100% and ready to go. finally. the BULLS will be one of the top 5 teams in the east but who can beat the heat? the bulls might not even win their own division because INDIANA is a monster with DANNY GRAINGER coming back from his injury.
let's hope the BLACKHAWKS don't come back with the same hangover they had in 2011. i think it will be ok because the team is basically intact.
DANIEL 'car wreck' CARCILLO left town after two terrible years in chicago. plagued by injuries and stupid penalties, he needed a fresh start and he'll definitely get that in los angeles. another crazy man on the west coast.
who will notice?
and gets what starts next week? OPENING DAY OF TRAINING CAMP FOR YOUR CHICAGO BEARS!!! yessssssssssssssssssssssssssss!
later, dudes & dudettes

ZIMMERMAN FLACK
so now the attorney general of the united states, ERIC HOLDER, is throwing a temper tantrum because GEORGE ZIMMERMAN was acquitted in the justified florida shooting of the dope smoking, sign flashing, pot smoking, gang banging TRAYVON MARTIN. holder, an african american, has stated that HE'S not satisfied that justice was done. screw him. holder himself stated in april of 2012, "For a federal hate crime, we have to prove the highest standard in the law."
in order to prosecute zimmerman federally, they have to find that the incident was racially motivated and, AT NO TIME DURING THE TRIAL, was any EVIDENCE introduced that it was a racial thing with zimmerman. you can yell & scream that it was a racial killing but the FACTS are:
zimmerman reported to the police a hooded subject walking through a area in which several thefts & break-ins had recently occurred. when he continued to follow him as he was trained in the neighborhood watch program, the punk attacked him. if anyone violated someone's rights, it was the other way around.
the game is over, mr. holder. move on.
in another "racial incident" that makes most of us roll our eyes, an 18 year old college student got her front teeth knocked out during a police involved incident at a DENNY'S restaurant in bloomington, il. "i didn't have anything to do with the incident at denny's. i was just attacked by the police for no reason." hmmmmmm. let's roll the video............which shows the 'demure' young lady pushing and then punching a police officer. she then resisted arrest which required a second officer to assist in the arrest. 'attacked for no reason'? i think not. the young 'lady' was indicted last week on two felony charges.
THIS IS EXACTLY WHY most people don't believe a word that comes out of the jungle. EVERYTHING is "racially motivated" and EVERYTHING is "because i'm black" and EVERYTHING happens because the police acted "unprofessionally and racist." it's like repeat loop of music. same tune every day. you get tired of it. i know i do.
WHY WERE YOU ARRESTED? it's not because you're black, white, brown or red. it's because you're a dirtbag who has no respect for anyone and think the rules don't apply to you. well, guess what? they do. and when the police tell you to move along, you have to put on a muscle show for the other members of the jungle and then you whine like a punk ass baby when the cops put the bracelets on. act stupid, get treated stupid.
on a lighter note for you lake county people, mark down ANTIOCH as your place to go next year for 4th of july fireworks. a spectacular 29 MINUTE display which is unheard of in the area. the display was book ended by a grand start & grand finale. believe me, they will both get your attention and because they're shot off from the middle of town, you can sit anywhere and enjoy them. no festival required. we got to the grammer school around 8:00 and set up in the field with our cooler. no muss, no fuss. give it 20 minutes after the display and traffic has disappeared.
to end this diatribe, let me give you a real life example of good luck. a couple of weeks ago, i go to ARLINGTON PARK to enjoy the nine races and i bring home 5 winners, 3 exactas & a trifecta. nice day but that wasn't the lucky part. after making my bets for the 8th race, i stopped to straighten out my money, tickets, pens, program and all the other stuff i carry to the track before going back to my seat. my horse wins going away AND i also win the exacta. woooooo! i reach for my winning tickets........................................and they're not in my left pocket. uh-oh. after my heart reaches about 180 beats per second, i walk back into the betting concourse with hundreds of people walking around and STILL SITTING on the abandoned table are my winning tickets, twenty minutes after i left them. NOW THAT'S LUCK!!!
HAVE A GREAT DAY!

THE CHICAGO ALL STAR TEAM
i was taking a break until after the all star game but too much is happening. this chicago all star team feature normally gets people all fired up so let's do it. i have a feeling that the outcry will be "my garbage is better than your garbage" which makes this year even better.
1B rizzo & konerko. two guys hitting .240 so they both play 4 1/2 innings. seriously, with konerko on the DL, i would take ANTHONY RIZZO but mark my words: the cubs are eventually going to be very disappointed in this young man as the 'face of the franchise."
2B no question. GORDON BECKHAM
SS again, the implosion of the uncoachable starlin castro makes this a no brainer. ALEXIE RAMIREZ
3B a close one but CONOR GILLESPIE gets the nod over LUIS VALBUENA. gillespie has more speed, is hitting .257 over .243 and they are virtually deadlocked defensively.
LF-CF-RF this group is soooooooo bad that i'm just going to pick three guys and hope thay can hit the ball because no one can catch it. ALFONSO SORIANO, ALEX RIOS (he actually does play defense) & NATE SCHIERHOLTZ. that outfield sends a shiver up my spine.
C the white sox didn't have a major league catcher on their roster until last week so DIONER NAVARRO at .291 can take his 8 HR & 19 RBI's into this all star game without question. bonus $ for you: he's listed at 205 pounds. take a good look and bet the over.
THE PITCHING STAFF:
here we go. ready to drop the gloves? the RHP has to be MATT GARZA @ 4-1 3.45, who is making the cubs smile every time he takes the mound because his value increases with each pitch. the cubs should do well when they trade him.
i know the cub fans want a sweep in the starting positions with travis wood but i'm taking CHRIS SALE. he also dominates games but gets absolutely no run support.
BULLPEN: set up man is JESSE CRAIN without question and the closer is ADDISON REED @ 22/26 saves plus a 4-1 stikeout/walk ratio. kevin gregg @15/17 with a 3-1 ratio makes it competitive but reed wins this one.
MANAGER: my nephew frank
