One of the better moments out of a terrible season...

7/29/2006. CAPTION READS: Cubs pitcher Ryan Dempster hoses down a Cardinals fan holding a sign that reads "Chokers since 1908" in the Wrigley Field bleachers before Friday's game. The Cubs edged the Cardinals, 6-5.

Great Shot!

Not to mention that's a year's worth of showering for your typical Cardinals fan. Maybe Dempster was doing him a favor...

buncha classless jerks

while my brother and I were in Wrigleyville Sports across from Wrigley after the Red Scum took the division in 05, our wives waited outside. We were in a pretty ugly mood. I have to admit it, but we were.

They conveniently said nothing to us until we were in the car headed to Harry Carey's southbound on Clark and then told us two drunken Cards fans had razzed them outside the store. Smart move. We would have gone back and probably done something really stupid .. like introduce them to what the inside of a Chicago ambulance looks like, and I would have been begging forgiveness a week later after they came out of the coma.

But cooler heads prevailed. Thank God for the wives of Cub fans.

Well, Next Year is here .. and Jack's century's gotta end some time .. GO CUBBIES!

There is a Grilled Chicken restaurant called Torihiro in Urasoe, Okinawa, where all kinds of baseball industry people get together. I found Dome's autograph in Japanese characters on the wall (lower left one, click here to enlarge) when I visit there to celebrate my friend won the regional high school baseball tournament for National Tournament in Koshien on last Sunday.

It is written entirely in Japanese vertically, reads "07.2.14, for Torihiro, Chunichi Dragons, Fukudome Kosuke #1", when he visited the restaurant on his off-day in 2007 Dragons spring training in Chatan, Okinawa.
I was messing around with an image stitching app and came up with this extreme widescreen view of Wrigley (a Dodger game in 2005).  I liked the way it turned out and figured I'd share it.

Did anyone see the front page of the Trib. sports section today. There is a huge picture of Favre in a Bears jersey.

Does this totally freak anyone else out? My mind doesn't even know what to do about it.
