I don’t know exactly when the news broke, but the developing story about the Cubs’ star shortstop, Starlin Castro and the allegation of him sexually assaulting a woman last September after a night of partying? Yeah, this is serious business even if he emerges from this wrongly accused. I can’t think of one athlete or public figure that has [...]

I don’t know exactly when the news broke, but the developing story about the Cubs’ star shortstop, Starlin Castro and the allegation of him sexually assaulting a woman last September after a night of partying?

Oh Ye (Me) Of Little Faith!!!
Yes, last night after struggling through two and a half quarters of “garbage can juice” basketball, featuring Joakim Noah showcasing his low post arsenal, Omer Asik being Omer Asik, and sub-40% shooting from the field as a team, I temporarily hopped off of the Bulls bandwagon. I figured catching up on episodes of Battlestar Galactica on Netf [...]
Guess Who’s Back?
After a nice sabbatical…I mean hiatus…I mean stretch of utter laziness, I’ve decided to finish what I started last July and resume rambling on my blog about all things sports and video game related that I enjoy. If this blog were a dog, I would be on that Animal Cops TV show right now talking about “Ain’t nothing [...]
Double (Random) Dribble
So much has happened in the last 24 hrs, I’m just spouting off at will right now…
Bears pulled it off last night, beating the Eagles 30-24, despite being an 8+ point underdog. Yesterday someone reported on Twitter that there was a $200,000 bet in play FOR the Bears…someone came up big time.
I kinda, sorta did too in fantas [...]
Bears vs. Eagles – Monday Night...
Ron Mexico….I mean…Michael Vick is due for a breakout game in prime time. I guess I shouldn’t use the term breakout and Vick in the same sentence, huh…never mind.
Anyone wondering wth I’m referring to, just google “Ron Mexico” and you will have your answers.
I’m not going to lie, I’m jus [...]
World Series – Game 7
Just being honest…I’m pretty much the Cub version of a typical White Sox fan (towards Cubs fans) when it comes to the Cardinals…check that, it’s not even the Cardinals team that I have issues with, but really just their fans. To me they are so obnoxious and convenient with their fandom, now making cracks about the Cubs. I don’t g [...]
The Dynasty
Finally the second season in our online dynasty is about to begin. There were a lot of high expectations before the beginning of last season. To a man I don’t think anyone was really happy with the way the season went. Well…maybe one or two guys were, but their goals are not as lofty as others.
First my cohort Charles was [...]
Chicago Cubs – The Theo Era Beg...
So now that Theo is now in the fold…what exactly does this mean to people like me in the short term? Absolutely nothing…other than hearing how great he is and the change he’s going to bring with his squad of baseball minds and sabermetricians (which I don’t doubt their worth). I imagine there is going to be a complete shift in the or [...]
NBA Lockout – Exclusive Intervi...
The lockout has progressed into the danger zone and is damaging lives at irreparable levels for more players than you would imagine. Looking to gain a better pulse on the situation, I was able to sit down for an exclusive interview with one of the current Chicago Bulls’ players to get his personal account on the ongoing lockout situation. H [...]
