"Sox bies"

Spring training is just around the corner, but baseball fans in Chicago aren’t waiting around to get their rivalries fired up.  There’s no off-season when it comes to hate, and there’s no greater hate than the hate between rival baseball fans in the same town.  While the Cubs hate the Cardinals and vice-versa, nobody hates Cubs fans more than Chicago White Sox fans.  It is believed that White Sox fans vandalized a statue of Harry Caray outside of Wrigley Field.

According to Cubs spokesman Peter Chase, the graffiti was white paint that read Sox and then some other illegible word.  I’ve tried to study it and I have no idea what it means.  Either way, it’s graffiti, and it’s white paint, so it’s pretty clear that it’s an anti-Cubs message, not a pro-Cubs message.  That’s some tasty Chicago-style hate.

The Caray statue is notorious as the target of vandalism.  In 2007, someone hanged the carcass of a dead goat around the statue’s neck, a reference to the Curse of the Billy Goat that has kept the Cubs from winning the World Series for over 100 years.

I’ve never had a problem eating food from a gas station.  Just two weeks ago, I ate a couple of hot dogs purchased from a gas station.  They were delicious.  That’s not the first time I’ve eaten gas station food, and I doubt it will be the last.  There’s nothing like a fun food novelty. […]

Commissioner Roger Goodell gathered 32 NFL owners for one big question.  One of the league’s most wanderlust-stricken franchises is looking to move again.  The Oakland-Los Angeles-Oakland Raiders, tired of gutting it out in a run-down stadium, were once again looking for greener pastures.  Only the Miami Dolphins refused to cooperate.  With a vote of 31-1, […]

In 2006, an injury to Dallas Cowboys starting quarterback Drew Bledsoe opened the door for an undrafted free agent by the name of Tony Romo to take the helm of America’s Team and lead the Dallas Cowboys to an early playoff exit.  Bledsoe went from starter to afterthought in a season.  Now, the circle continues […]

For 89 years, Oscars has never had a major mistake.  The last few Oscars might have had a few flubs, but at least they never got the most important category of the night wrong.  Well, that’s now changed, all thanks to OG Bonnie and Clyde legends Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway.  When Faye Dunaway called […]

Tom Brady has been wildly successful, if controversial.  He’s the first quarterback ever to win five Super Bowls and only the second player to do so after Charles Haley.  Unlike Haley, Brady won all his Super Bowls with the same team, the New England Patriots.  The only thing that seems to be able to stop […]

Ben Affleck, no matter what you might think of him, is a talented actor and director.  He’s got the goods, but he’s smart enough to know when he’s in over his head.  All along, since he took on the mantle of Batman, he’s had his eyes on writing, directing, and starring as the Caped Crusader. […]

In May, students for the for-profit American College of Education were running into some problems.  Their access to email accounts and course information was locked down by Google, who had disabled their accounts.  The reason why?  A fired IT worker for the American College of Education locked the school out of their Google cloud account.
