have the cubs lost their freaking minds in the THEO EPSTEIN negotiations? they have to come up with compensation (just like a trade) but have said no to the red sox requests for either MATTT GARZA or minor leaguers TREY MCNUTT or BRETT JACKSON. pick one, morons! mcnutt & jackson are nice prospects but one has to keep in mind that the cubs' farm system is rated the third worst in baseball and both guys are B+ prospects, far from being a lock to make it. (just ask corey patterson and tyler colvin).
i understand protecting your prospects within reason but how in the good name of ABNER DOUBLEDAY can you even hesitate to seal the deal with matt garza????????? almost 30, garza is two games under .500 for his career and other than pitching 200 innings a year, has no discernible value to the cubs. how about shipping garza and replace him with your valued prospect trey mcnutt? cub fans should be lining up to drive garza to the airport. only the cubs.
hey, ROBIN VENTURA! zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
OZZIE GUILLEN lights up pitching coach DON COOPER in an interview and tells everyone the cooper is "KENNY WILLIAMS' bitch." i was afraid this was going to happen when ozzie headed south and i guarantee ozzie's rocky relationship with williams is next for the general public. it would be nice and show some class, ozzie, and shut your mouth. you have a new job so concentrate on that.
LSU continues to prove they're a quality football program with their ZERO TOLERANCE policy for the players. coach LES MILES rocked the college football world a week before their opener against oregon by suspending starting quarterback JORDAN JEFFERSON for being involved in a fight. that suspension lasted 4 games.
and now, miles has suspended two of his best players, starting running back SPENCER WARE and all american candidate TYRANN MATHIEU just before a huge game against defending national champion auburn. "we have standards for this football team but not double standards. i don't care if you're the 75th man on the roster or an all american. break the rules and pay the price." LSU fans should be proud.
blackhawks?? off and running to the stanley cup finals. book it.

some of my favorite women
as you know, most women amuse me on a regular basis but here are some of my favorites to date:
OMA NELSO was recently denied parole for the second time from her life sentence in california. nelson killed her husband in 1991 and then chopped him into little pieces. big deal, right? the kicker was that she then cooked his body parts into her thanksgiving dinner and served it to a dozen friends for the holiday. and they refused her parole? why?
in florida, 70 year old HATTIE BRANCH resigned her bus driving job after beating the crap out of a 14 year old punk who was bullying everyone on the bus since the start of the school year. "i ain't takin' that from nobody, let alone a 14 year old acting like a nigger," said the african-american branch, "and maybe now he'll show some respect to the new driver." branch, of course, was arrested when the punk complained to the school principal. i say GOOD FOR YOU HATTIE! at this point, her legal defense fund had received over $30,000 in contributions.
a 49 year old school teacher from new jersey, VIKI KNOX, will test the legal waters of free speech following her administrative suspension for an opinion she posted on facebook. knox stated that homosexuality "breeds like cancer" and should be eliminated if possible. the school immediately suspended her pending a termination hearing. the district superintendent said, "she has the right to say anything she wants but she doesn't have the right to keep her job after saying it." place your bets now.
for all of you who have had any experience with divorce thru yourself or friends: LAURA WALSH says state represenative JOE WALSH owes her $117,000 in back child support. joe says he had a 'verbal agreement' with his ex-wife to not pay child support since 2007 because his income had dropped. excuse me? walsh has a master's degree from the university of chicago and i'm pretty sure he knows that it takes a court order to change a divorce decree. as far as having no money, walsh lent his own campaign $35,000 last summer and took a girlfriend to europe on vacation. laura has custody of their three kids and states she has 'no clue' about any agreement regarding child support. pay up joe.
thirty year old CHRISTOPHER MARQUEZ was arrested in bolingbrook for theft related charges as he was caught stealing copper from a storage yard. usually a simple story. but freakin mom was also arrested as police caught ELIZABETH MARQUEZ waiting outside the fence with the trunk open and the car running. p.s.....it was 6 p.m. ......on a sunny day. the apples don't fall far from the tree.
finally, watch for BARACK OBAMA to name HILLARY CLINTON as his running mate as JOE BIDEN retires for 'health reasons'. obama's numbers are dismal in the polls and although he would have a coin flip election with republican MITT ROMNEY, putting the anti-christ on the ballot with him will seal the deal for the democrats. you heard it here first.

the cubs!
CONGRATULATIONS to the chicago cubs on their hiring of THEO EPSTEIN to run the entire show on the north side because now they will finally enter the world of major league baseball. but slow down cub fans....it's not going to happen overnight and 2012 is going to be a disaster of the highest degree with a talent level that should lose 100 or more games. the cubs only have a couple major leaguers on the roster and their minor league system is a vast wasteland that's screaming for a total overhaul.
epstein has a monumental task ahead of him, starting with hiring a new manager and coaching staff....unless he keeps quade to captain the titanic next season and then makes a hire for the top spot during the next off season. quade would be the perfect guy to hold the reins in 2012.
back in the 90's, i told packer fans that it had nothing to do with the roster, fans, good character or scheduling but the packers wouldn't win until they hired a superstar GM, which they eventually did with RON WOLF.
wolf immediately fired the head coach and brought in MIKE HOLMGREN. second move? trade for a drug addicted quarterback named BRETT FAVRE and solidify the defense by signing free agent homophob REGGIE WHITE. wolf didn't care if they were drunks, dopers, gay bashers or wife beaters because he wanted to win. period. a couple of years later, they started re-naming streets in green bay to honor those four.
eerily similiar, epstein fired red sox manager grady little and hired terry francona. then he brought in characters like david ortiz, kevin millar and curt schilling. strange human beings but very talented. result? winner, winner, chicken dinner! 2004 & 2007 world champions but the red sox had a strong talent base when epstein took over and they needed just a couple of pieces to complete the puzzle. even with the lean year ahead, i think good times are ahead for the cubs.

a little bit of everything
women are on a win streak in court rooms around the world. first, CASEY ANTHONY walks away from overwhelming evidence in florida that she killed her daughter and now AMANDA KNOX has her murder conviction overturned in italy. i learned long ago that there is no such thing as a 'slam dunk' in court and that's why you see many people accept plea bargains rather than test the system.
NANCY GRACE, she of the 'wardrobe malfunction' (flopping boob) on dancing with the stars, has looked absolutely clownish in every outfit she's worn on that show. grace apparently has an active membership in the 'all you can eat daily buffet' club and gets paid by the pound, looks oafish no matter what the dance and should be ousted soon. never thought anyone could fill p the entire screen on my 72" t.v.
speaking of unattractive and abrasive people, have any of you watched any of the news clips featuring KAREN LEWIS, the head of the teacher's union for chicago public schools? ouch. she reminds me of that special aunt who gets nasty when she has that fourth drink on christmas eve and decides to get louder than everyone else and 'clear the air' even if you don't want to take part. MAYOR RAHM EMMANUEL wants longer school days and simply put, he's going to get them. period. but this amazon keeps banging her spoon against the pan and yelling that he can't force them. wanna bet? there comes a time you realize you can't win in the long run. just be quiet karen and learn your place.
the cook county forest preserves have long allowed watchman to live rent-free in houses located in the preserves...the idea being that it would provide on-site security 24 hours a day. but then who watches the watchman? a female watchman was recently arrested for growing marijuana on forest preserve property. the district is reviewing the policy. ya think?
if you're looking for very interesting tv, catch 'PROHIBITION' by ken burns, who also did the award winning documentaries on the civil war & baseball. the series is shown in three 2-hour segments on public television and is without commercial interruption so it's perfect for your dvr. the role of women during that period is well documented by burns and he describes it in detail, both good & bad.
if you ever bought a book at the now defunct BORDERS, book store, you should be receiving ads from BARNES & NOBLE in the near future because borders quietly sold their customer list to b & n. if you want to opt out from b & n, contact www.bn.com/borders BEFORE october 29th and you get deleted from the mailing/email list.
legal issues over civil unions will be tested soon in the state courts of indiana. remember the tragic stage collapse at the indiana state fair back in august? well, the life partner of one of the victims is filing a wrongful death/negligence suit for damages. pretty standard stuff, right? but although they both lived together in chicago and were married, indiana dos not recognize civil unions and restricts law suits to surviving spouses and immediate family members. rumor has it that the wheel chair bound survivor will NOT acept a settlement unless it's clearly stated by indiana that they were living as a married couple. it's a little cloudy but i think i see the supreme court in my crystal ball.

FOR WOMEN ONLY
if you've got little ones around, it's time to take them to a pumpkin farm. when i was a kid, it was a place called AMLINGS in melrose park where you could pick out your pumpkin and have a glass of apple cider but that was about it. today, it's much better for both kids and parents and GOEBBERT'S PUMPKIN PATCH in two locations--hampshire 847-464-5952 & south barrington 847-428-6727-- does it about as good as anyone with pig races, camel rides, corn maze, pony rides, animal land, wagon rides and the world famous pumpkin eating dinosaur in hampshire. call ahead because the locations have different features.
CAROL MOSELY BRAUN, who was once the shining beacon for all women in politics and was the first african-american woman elected u.s. senator in 1992 may have finally stepped in it big time. she has failed to account for $315,000 in expenditures when she ran that ridiculous campaign for mayor of chicago. the law requires an itemized list for all transactions over $150 and all the other candidates have all filed proper paperwork. braun turned in a sheet that stated "$315,000--various vendors."
when questioned, she tried to blame an 85 year old lady BILLIE PAIGE, who promptly refuted the accusation. "i told them on april 15th they needed to amend the report and that was my final day with her campaign." when reached by phone told of paige's statement, braun shifted gears and said, "well, i'm not in that world anymore and i'm no longer in politics so don't bother me with this." click. i'm thinking that will not be her last phone call on this matter.
the key word today for state senator SUZI SCHMIDT is ABUSE. in hot water and being urged to resign after several brush-ups with the lake county sheriffs and domestic ABUSE towards her husband, rumors are flying about extreme alcohol ABUSE and also ABUSING her powers as a state senator by asking for favors. i can guarantee you that if any of us had 4 visits from the cops in less than a year for domestic disturbance that someone would be sitting in jail. guaranteed.
i see the fine residents of the englewood neighborhood in chicago are blaming former cabrini-green residents for 'making the neighborhood dangerous' by relocating after cabrini was torn down this past summer. that's like blaming unemployment on the unemployed. those animals have had one of the highest crime rates for decade but all of sudden, it's the 200 new residents from cabrini causing ALL of the problems.
i see where the tollway management have accused 7 employees of stealing toll money from the booths. duh. my grandfather used to tell me 50 years ago that a toll collector job was a 'license to steal' on a regular basis. just make it all i-pass and credit cards and be done with it.
i see where michael jackson's personal physician, who made 1.8 million a year in that position, is in a wee bit of trouble. i think it will be guilty of manslaughter and 4 years d.o.c. and loss of his license forever. hope he saved some of that salary.
just plain weird. google 'cat with two faces' or check page 7 of today's sun-times.
i think it's cool that michelle obama went incognito and shopped at target.
finally, if you've been talking about re-financing your house, let me give you a hint.....NOW! 4% for a 30 year. example: you currently mortgage 150,00 @ 6%=900 a month. re-fi at 4% and it's 716.00. this is a no brainer because you save $184 a month which puts more than 2 grand in your pocket every year. NOW!
have a good weekend.

baseball at it's FINEST!!
wow! what a night for major leage baseball!! four teams playing for the right to move on to the playoffs....two coming from out of nowhere in the last month and two trying to avoid monumental meltdowns. then you get two extra inning games, one decided in the bottom of the ninth and an early winner holding it's breath waiting for a decision in georgia. outstanding!
the best david/goliath story was tampa bay winning the american league wild card with a 41$ million total payroll by catching the $161 million chokin' dog boston red sox. 4 times the payroll and the sox go belly up with a 7-20 september. add to the mix that the rays were down 7-0 in the eighth inning and scored six against the mighty yankees in that inning, then got a pinch-hit, two out, two strikes homer in the ninth to tie the game from a guy hitting under .200 before evan longoria won it by hitting his second home run of the night to end it in the 12th inning.
in the meantime, the red sox take a 3-2 lead into the bottom of the 9th against a baltimore team that finished the year 28 games out of first place and the red sox were 77-0 when leading after the eigth inning. 77 and ZERO. just get three outs and head to the playoffs. put your best closer in...a guy with 31 saves. first two batters strike out swinging and the celebration is set. but double, double and a missed catch 'single' and a bad throw home ends the season for the sox.
people are bitching about jose reyes' method of winning the batting title but i say they're wrong. he goes 1-1 today and then sits out the rest of the game for the fourth place mets. ryan braun needs three hits to catch him but goes 0-4. reyes wins by 5 FULL points, not .005 as some stations reported earlier. they both played all season and the numbers are what they are. braun had ample opportunity on a powerful offensive team but finished second. i think everyone knows who the better ball player is but reyes earned the title in an injury plagued season on a crappy ball club.
let's not forget the chokin' dog II atlanta braves who went 9-18 in september and lost their last 5 games to piss away an 8 1/2 game lead in just 23 days.
chipper jones this.
ozzie is gone and i think it was the right move. wouldn't have bothered me a bit if GM williams had also gotten whacked. maybe terry francona of the red sox would like to switch cities? but it looks like former sox catcher sandy alomar, jr. might have the inside track and that's also ok with me.
adam dun....a .159 average with 177 strikeouts. how's this for a paycheck....with his 66 hits, dunn mad 212,000 dollars PER HIT! that alone should have shanghied kenny williams but wait, i have a better one. every time that piece of crap hit a homer (11) he got paid one and a quarter MILLION dollars!!!!!!
quade gone?
sandberg in?
cooper got an extension as pitching coach. nice move.
greg walker resigns. smart move on his part.
first round winners? brewers, philadelphia, yankees and tampa to upset texas.
i'm tired. more soon.

baseball & football
if case you didn't already know it, here's a quick fact for you to remember: the SEC is the best conference in college football. every other conference is simply playing for the bcs runner up trophy.
the cubs were eliminated from the division race on saturday but they're still alive for the wild card heading into play on sunday. the one mountain they WILL climb is the one to 90 losses, which are a mere ten away. how can anyone be a cub fan? year after year after year.......
BUT if the cubs bring in tampa gm andrew friedman, i predict he will have the same effect that ron wolf had on the packers back in the 90's. you heard it here first. friedman is just 35 years old but has a history of holding people accountable IMMEDIATELY, which would chang that drag-ass attitude that is so prevalent on the north side. he will cost them dearly but tom ricketts has to decide what he wants: winners or write offs?
the white sox bottomed out with that 9-8 loss on saturday in detroit which should spell the end for both kenny & ozzie. everyone is sick of their childish battles in the media and the chairman has also had enough. this was a team good enough to win but you had to be willing to sit dunn & rios july 1st, not september 1st and calling up the replacements so you could make a run at the division. no more excuses for them. out the door.
the bears are sneaky ready but a very tough schedule and a big question mark hanging over the offensive line reels in my enthusiasm. if cutler continues to get beat up like the last two years, have a body bag ready. i still say 8-8 with no playoffs.
bonus question for a free beer: within 5 seconds, NAME the head coaches of the chicago fire, chicago sky and the chicago wolves. 5 seconds, GO! i didn't think so.
chicago bulls? no news
blackhawks? i got nuthin
chicago fire? never any news
chicago sky? a total waste of gymnasium space. classic underachievers second only to the cubs.
wolves? 3,216 fans wait anxiously for the start of the season.
i'm outta here.
