Buehrle Perfect!

I'm speechless. I'm utterly speechless. I had to rush tonight and put the kid down so I could watch Mark Buehrle throw a perfect game on the Comcast replay. This was the most amazing baseball game I have ever seen in my life. Yes, it was better than game 1 of the World Series in 2005 (I'm...

Slip and Fall

Not really what I want to be writing about but it's been a rough coupla days. This time last week the Sox were in first, now they're sitting in 4th. Ouch. It's only two and a half games out as I type this and they are playing first place KC--what?---so if they start hitting they could make...

It's May Day Not Mayday (whew)

Some days in April I felt like I didn't know what we had and others it seemed that things were starting to take shape (for good). I guess first place, even by a narrow margin, alleviates some of the worry. What I do like, beside the obvious, are the additions of Chris Getz and Josh Fields. Lillibridge...

Great Time to be a Chicago Sports Fan

The Bulls and Hawks are looking good in the playoffs, the Cubs and Sox are both coming off playoff appearances and off to a decent start. Oh, and the Bears just traded for a franchise Quarterback, only two seasons removed from a Super Bowl appearance. Has there been a better time to be a Chicago Sports...

Back to Back 300 Jacks

For the first time in MLB history two teammates have hit century milestones in the same game. Not only that but Jermaine Dye and Paul Konerko did it hitting back-to-back in the second. That's the cool thing about baseball, this game is played over and over and over multiple times a day, month after...

Kicking and Screaming

With the exception of my stomach turning every time I saw the red and blue #24 I was feeling OK about this game until about the 7th inning but before I go there I'll begin with what I thought would be the main focus of my thoughts tonight. I was at that Aug. game, Sox vs. Sox, when Contreras left...

Numah 2 & Numah 3

Wow, not the way I’d like to start things out. Floyd and Danks both deserved wins but got little to no support. I am really not ready to see this (again) all year. I am fighting to not let this wreck things for me, I’m so excited it’s baseball season I do not want to be negative but geez guys, let's...

1 Down, 161 to Go

The Fun Sox win! Baseball is here! Chris Getz had a good day as did Josh Fields (laid down a perfect bunt and had nice jumping throw to home to save a run). Welcome back to the AL Central Kyle Farnsworth, we’re glad you are here and although we don’t understand it, we’re even happier that Trey Hillman...

Shock and Awe: Bears Trade for Cutler

It's official, the Bears got Jay Cutler from Denver for Kyle Orton, two first rounders, and a third rounder. Denver's also sending a 5th rounder back. They certainly gave up a lot, but I love this deal for the Bears. A franchise QB is coming to a team that has never had one. That's the bottom...

Bring It On

Obviously all the SoxFest chatter got me anxious for Spring Training and now that ST is here I'm wishing I could be in AZ! I'm ready to see what unfolds in centerfield, 2nd base, 3rd base and in the rotation. I'm antsy to watch Alexei at his normal spot (he had never played 2nd in his entire...
