Eric Hinske’s Massive Back Tattoo
Here in Chicago we've long known that when players leave and go on to other cities and other teams, it's usually to do something good. And then we complain about getting rid of said player on sports radios and blogs. Eric Hinske is one of those guys. Hinske was another in a long list of Cubs prospects that never really got a chance here. He was traded for Miguel Cairo (Nice!) and went on to win Rookie of the Year in 2002. He's also been to 3 World Series and won twice. He's built a decent career, as well as an ...

Cop Ran Over at Blackhawks Stanley Cup Celebration

There were just too many people on hand for the big rally and when police tried to clear the streets, one Chicago officer on an ATV accidentally ran over one of his colleagues.

I Just Fixed Baseball and Instant Replay — Was That So Hard?
Major League Baseball is like most old, cemented corporations: slow to act, wary of change and quicksand-stuck in its ways. What a shame. MLB had a chance to climb out of the cave when Jim Joyce's egregious error nullified Armando Galarraga's perfect game. But they didn't, and we are bound to see something like this happen again. Phil Rogers' latest column discusses how many of baseball's top officials don't want to enact change, and Rogers is right there in agreement with the archaic thought that replay would hurt baseball. Many of baseball's top brass said that Galarraga should not have been ...

BJ Upton, Evan Longoria in Near Dugout Brawl
Evan Longoria and BJ Upton nearly brawl in the Tampa Bay Rays dugout, after Longoria calls out Upton for lolligagging on a ball hit to deep center field. Longoria went about it the right way and Upton then freaked out, which probably means that Longoria was right to call him on it. The Rays are currently +375 to win the American League pennant. The Cubs are a mere +8000 to win the NL pennant. You’d... [Read more]
