The Chicago Cubs, a century of comedic failure....or, hope springs eternal for those gray clad modest young warriors.

Pictures
Couple of pics I had lying around from the April 5th game versus Houston. The Cubs came back to win with five runs in the 7th inning, including a Fukudome go ahead two-run double. The team managed six 2-out RBIs. The crowd was loving it.
Phils win it all. Hamels named series MVP. The fiasco of the suspension of the final game just highlights why Selig bothers me. Meanwhile Vegas sportsbooks calls it a 2-1 victory for the Phils. That's Nevada Gaming Commission rules. Deal.
The ChiSox have to make a decision on a $16.5 million option for 2009 on Griffey. Have fun somewhere else, Junior.
The Bears get the winless Lions next. You can almost feel the loss coming. How about a big ground game from Jones and Forte this weekend?
Diuretics in the NFL. Whatever. Can we at least stop pretending the NFL is pristine like all the ex-players and media pundits want to tell us? Meanwhile WR Bernard Berrian complained that his calls to the nfl drug hotline (to inquire as to where certain supplements fit in or not with league policy) were not answered or returned until his third attempt.
Ron Rivera is now the Chargers defensive coordinator. No, it won't magically make the Chargers play like they should.
Texas v Texas Tech. Florida v Georgia. Watch the sparks fly.
The Bulls top draft pick is good. Really good.
Ex-Bull Jason Caffey had 10 kids with 8 women and is dismayed to find out he will have to support them.
Greg Oden is hurt again. In the first game. 4-6 weeks. You have to be kidding me.
The Spurs opened the year by fouling Shaq in the first 5 seconds and laughing at him (or with him, depending on your take on it).
Liverpool sits atop the Premier League standings after beating Chelsea this weekend to end Chelsea's 86-match home unbeaten streak. The standings are now Liverpool (23 pnts), Chelsea (20), Hull City (20), Arsenal (19), Aston Villa (17), Manchester Utd (15), Portsmouth (14).
Diego Maradona will be Argentina's new soccer coach. Cocaine and ephedrine for everyone. Ole!
John Daly got to spend a drunken evening in the pokey after a rough night at Hooters. Good show, John.
Chicago Fire face New England in the first round of MLS playoffs. Yawn.
