ALL SORTS OF GOOD STUFF

ADAM DUNN, the only player i know who has ever been booed at SOXFEST in january was finally run out of town in exchange for a minor league pitcher. dunn absolutely SUCKED during his 4 seasons in chicago and made 56 million dollars doing it. now he says he's going to retire at the end of the season? hey jerkwad, take a good look at your stats.  you apparently retired 4 years ago.

and a fond farewell to ALEJANDRO DE AZA, who may be the worst baserunner in major league history which fits right in with his lack of baseball intelligence.  makes a great catch and then throws to the wrong base.  drops a ball and still throws to the wrong base. steals second and then gets picked off.....TWICE in the same game.  aloha

STUPID coaching must be hereditary for the WISCONSIN BADGERS who were dominating LSU and MELVIN GORDON had 139 yards in just 13 carries for the badgers just after halftime.  time for RUN, MELVIN, RUN correct?  nope. 

gordon gets the ball just three more times the rest of the game and LSU wins 28-24.   and here's the best part.  badger coach GARY ANDERSEN says gordon was injured at halftime. gordon says "not true.  did i look like i was injured when i ran for 63 yards at the start of the third quarter?"
problems in cheeseland.

i see where the academic scandal has reached out and grabbed yet another irish football player for cheating, bringing the total to five. well, at least it's not fighting with a cop or dui.

and i can't forget notre dame football, who started the season off with another patsy and beat RICE, 48-17. i CAN'T WAIT until they bump heads with STANFORD, NORTH CAROLINA & USC. oh, did i forget to mention defending national champion FLORIDA STATE in talahassee?? let's see how they handle MICHIGAN this week.

hey cub fans....you might want to invest in a heavy coat for next season becaus all of those strikeouts are going to make it very breezy at wrigley.

ok, get out yor wallets.  the BEARS are 20-1 to win the super bowl and the packers are 10-1. seahawks 6-1. WHOYAGOT?

KUDOS to NFL COMMISIONER ROGER GOODELL for the new set of standards regarding violence of any kind for any employee of the NFL. six game minimum suspension. 

and now it's PUT UP OR SHUT UP for NFL COMMISH ROGER GOODELL. 49er defensive lineman RAY McDONALD was arrested sunday morning for felony domestic violence which should bring him a six game suspension under goodell's new edict. 

HOWEVER, the plot thickens for mcdonald because apparently the victim is pregnant and the new rules allow for more suspension time if the victim is pregnant...........  i think mcdonald picked the wrong week to get arrested and goodell really gets to pound his chest with this one.  look for a minimum suspension of ten games.

remember my little story about the little leaguers from JACKIE ROBINSON WEST? well, the sadness begins as it was revealed this week that one of the players has been staying at a cousin's house since May because he's homeless due to mom & dad getting reduced hours at work.  exactly why i hope they enjoyed their summer in the sun.

DERRICK ROSE says his knee is fine. do you believe him?

bears open against BUFFALO on sunday and win 31-21.

packers open in seattle on thursday night and lose 24-19.

bye for now.
