Hmm...

Sugar-coated girlfriends don’t mean anything to me
This song’s about a girl who’s soft and warm and cheap
when I held her close to me she melted right away
Velveeta was her name
Velveeta, Velveeta, Velveeta…

All my friends keep telling me
“Frank, you must be sick.
How can you have fun with a gooey processed chick?”
But she’s much more than that
she’s got a heart of gold
and she does what she’s told
Velveeta, Velveeta, Velveeta…

I want to tell her that I’ll never go away
but she keeps showing me her expiration date

Girls may come, girls may go, but I know one thing for sure
they stock Velveeta at the local grocery store
and she’ll be on the shelf until the end of time
when we have to say goodbye
Velveeta, Velveeta, Velveeta.

7/3:Cubs vs. Brewers

7/3:Cubs vs. Brewers

It's yet another episode of "Outfield Adventures", starring Milton Bradley, as he'd lose this Jason Kendall-hit ball in the sun Friday against the Brewers.

Jeff Suppan is thrown out by Kosuke Fukudome in the seventh inning of the Cubs 2-1 win.

Buster Olney said a few days ago that the Braves would entertain offers for their 26 year old shortstop (who makes 450k) Yunel Escobar. He is a plus bat, a solid defender, and would move Theriot to his more appropriate position at second.

They are looking for a bat in return. Apparently Cox doesn't like the guy. 

I couldn't even speculate what we'd have to send them in return, but I think he would be a good fit given his low salary, his productive bat, his position, and his age.  I don't care if he's a jerk if he makes the team win more.
