Beating the Cubs and Eating Twinkies: Both Empty Calories.

Beating the Cubs and Eating Twinkies: Both Empty Calories.
I’ll admit, I didn’t see one pitch of the Cubs v. Sox series that wrapped up this weekend. I was on a road trip back to my alma mater, Ohio University. Luckily technology and traffic was my friend and I was able to listen to games one and three while I was driving. All things... Read more »

Rain, Running and Joy in Chicago.

Apologies to everyone who hates romanticized sporting blogs. It wasn’t a picture perfect day by any means. It was beyond overcast. It was actually dark and foreboding a coming storm. I decided if it was raining when I stepped out of the door I’d cut my distance short for the day. Thunder rumbled but no... Read more »

The Perfect Time Delay.

The Perfect Time Delay.
As fate would have it I got to see Philip Humber’s first start of the season.  It was a rather non-descript outing, he threw 115 pitches, gave up 6 hits and was in line for the win.  Hector Santiago blew the save and Zach Stewart threw gas on that fire in the tenth and the... Read more »

An Opening Weekend for the Ages! (or a lot of games for me!!)

It was by good fortune that I wasn’t able to post as much during this past week of the season.  Not only was I able to get to the home opener then I got to see the Sox go for the sweep against the Tigers.  If that wasn’t enough, I went the next night as... Read more »

Happy to Drop a Deuce in Texas.

I love baseball and the opening of the season; all the pageantry and pomp is great theatre and while it may be overblown in recent years, I know in talking to older fans and becoming an older fan each day that opening day does have a specialness about it that no other sport matches in...

March Madness

March Madness
Ah, it’s March and that can only mean one thing.  Time to start studying, getting my picks in order, all with the knowledge that I’ll be throwing my money away.  I am of course referring  to the true March Madness, the fantasy baseball draft.  Sure the NCAA is a lot of fun, watching teams I’ve...

Back For More. (Too Bad About Those Cubs Games Though.)

I was all set to write about how I’m not really looking forward to this year’s White Sox season, about how much difference a year makes.  I was ready to write about how excited I was for Adam Dunn in 2011 and how I’m afraid of what he’ll do this year.  That fear became even... Read more »

I Am A Baseball Apostate

I Am A Baseball Apostate
  I am a White Sox fan, but I should probably get this out of the way, I am a baseball apostate.  I was born and raised just outside of Cleveland.  Chances are, especially if you live in Chicago, you know of at least one person who was born and raised in Cleveland.  Chances are... Read more »
