May 14, 2018: Making Up
Monday was make up day for the Cubs against the Braves. Can you believe that the Braves have the best record in the National League? It is true. I can’t imagine that would continue… They do have a pretty good … Continued
May 13, 2018: Squeaking One Out
I figured the Sox would at least win one game. A lot of times in this series, you can throw the records out the door. It’s usually the team that’s not expected to win that will win this series. Well, … Continued
May 12, 2018: Crosstown Talk
This has to be the earliest the Cross Town series has ever been played. They’re really trying to limit fights in these games. First scheduling games during the week, now scheduling them early in the year. The only thing that … Continued
May 11, 2018: Will the East Rise?
I remember when the Eastern Conference ruled. Yeah, there were the Celtics, Sixers, and Pistons in the 80s. And then that other team that ruled the 90s that were all from the East. It’s pathetic the shape of the Eastern Conference… … Continued

May 7, 2018: Hanging Tough
Yeah, I’m back from throwing up… still here… hanging tough in the bottom of the 13th inning. Hanging Tough? Not a New Kids on the Block fan by any imagination, but for some reason, I remember that song. Am I … Continued
May 6, 2018: O Fer
Why’d you ever screw with the mojo Joe? Funny enough, or sad enough, the Cubs haven’t won since that day where Joe changed up the lineup during a 5 game winning streak. The losses to the Rockies were… whatever. A … Continued
May 5, 2018: I Plead the 5th
There are just some days that come along that are action packed with all types of sporting events. May 5th this year qualifies as one of those days. Lots of history on Cinco de Mayo. I started the day talking … Continued
