Stories We Missed

Just a quickie here - two gems about Chicago today that we totally missed:

#1. The Blackhawks have heart, soul, and Happy Meals.

#2. The Cubs are a scandal waiting to happen (I actually toyed with writing something about this today, but what can you do?)

Around The Horn

Dumping links like a guy who ate too much sausage:

#1. Gotta have hustle in this town. It got Podsednik two extra years of suck, didn't it? Props for remembering that Gault existed. [Top Ten Chicago Sports]

#2. Finally! I can support Obama AND my love of baseball attire! [Big League Stew]

#3. Swagger-watch is officially in full swing. Let's see if AJ and Swisher try and get the stooges back together. [Sox Machine]

#4. The cheapest franchise in baseball upgrades...to this? [On 205th]

#5. The Bulls made some trade yesterday or whatever, but Toma Ohka!? WOW! [Foul Balls]

#6. If this is a common response to showboating, Tiger Woods had better watch out. [Deuce of Davenport]

#7. Sick, twisted, and unusually thought-provoking. Tough call. [Chicago Bull]

What You Missed

Dumping some links like a guy who ate too much sausage:

Julian Tavarez is doing juuuuuuuust fine...away from Chicago. [Center Field]

The 22 WORST DUNKS EVER. I especially like the guy who gets his leg stuck in the hoop and all of his friends abandon him [On 205th]

Ozzie's just being Ozzie -- which is another way to say batshit insane. I love it. [Foul Balls]

Possibly the Best Prank Ever. [With Leather]

Will Leitch came to visit our great state for (at least) his third stop -- and did you even say hi? [Deadspin]

Milt, please come coach the White Sox hitters. I'm not going to ask again [Bugs and Cranks]

This is the best story I've heard all week. Absolutely amazing. [Deadspin]

Who loves cleft lip? Have fun with the hate mail, guys. [Chicago Bull]

I've read it twice and I still don't believe it. This has got to be the worst partnership ever. [Deuce of Davenport]

You have got to be shitting me. THIS is why I hate Boston. [Dumbass Petition]

Around The Horn

Gotta love Carlito

1. Aaron Gray loves Baby Ruth and Louis Vuitton. In other news, Gray is literate. Wait, what? [Chicago Bull]

2. Finally! Maroney can get some shoe-action -- Oh Yeah! [Deadspin]

3. Osi, is there anything you CAN'T do..do? [With Leather]

4. Combaton. Getting through The Lull faster than ever. [Deuce of Davenport]

5. I don't know what's worse: that Drew watches Grey's with such attentiveness, or that I got all the jokes. [Kissing Suzy Kolber]

Around the Horn

Some things you should be reading:

#1. Screw You Rick Telander: Trust in baseball is one thing, but a HoF ballot? Let's ask Tom. [Foul Balls]

#2. Christmas Ape goes out for a night on the town with Philip Rivers...I wish I knew where that photo came from [Kissing Suzy Kolber]

#3. Sox leadoff hitter? Please. Jim evaluates the roll of a leadoff hitter and makes sense of the Scott Podesdnik OBP phenomenon. Where does OBPS fit into all of this? [Sox Machine]

#4. Hey Czechoslovakia -- fuck you. Yeah, that's right. Fuck you and your goonies. [My Brain Says Rage]
