Bleeding more Cubbie Blue

2013-07-06T14:41:00.000-04:00

Paul Sullivan-Chicago Tribune: (Before Marmol Departure) "Marmol's latest blown save — his third of the year and the Cubs' 14th in 27 chances — was one of the more painful ones in a season only a masochist could enjoy."

Bill Ashworth-Noted Chicago Slacker: "I put t...his one on the manager."

Matt Garza had pitched seven shutout innings, and the Cubs were on the verge of sweeping the Mets in New York for the first time since Aug. 2-5, 1991, and winning their fourth straight. Then, in comes Marmol.

Marmol gives up a leadoff homer to Marlon Byrd, a walk to Lucas Duda, a single to John Buck and a one-out, three-run walk-off home run to .097-hitting Kirk Nieuwenhuis.

Sveum said he didn't want to use closer Kevin Gregg because "he had pitched four straight days (baseball logic used when about to ask a professional athlete earning a multi-million dollar salary to work 15 minutes for the 5th day in a row), and Marmol was the only other reliever with closing experience."See More

Writing Humor

A writer dies and reaches the Golden Gates …
March 1, 2013 – 2:36 pm
A writer dies and reaches the Golden Gates where God gives him a choice to either go to Heaven or Hell. He finds it difficult to make up his mind so he asks God if he can have a little tour of both places.
God agrees and they first go to Hell where the writer sees rows and rows of writers, chained to their desks in an overheated room, being whipped if they stopped writing for even a second by merciless editors and publishers. This really frightens the writer who then proceeds to Heaven hoping it’ll be better.
In Heaven too he sees rows of writers, chained to their desks in an over heated room, being whipped mercilessly.
So he turns to God and says, “But they’re both the same!”
To which God replies, “Oh no. Here in Heaven your work gets published!”

That Woman is Hysterical !!

2013-04-09T07:43:00.000-04:00

Hysteria was first diagnosed by the legendary Hippocrates in 450 B.C.

By the 19th century, it was believed that three-quarters of all middle class women suffered from the affliction. Two of the most prominently mentioned symptoms were sexual fantasy and vaginal lubrication.

Soon "cures" appeared everywhere. See Below.

What is a Libertarian Anyway?

What is a Libertarian Anyway?

I used to wonder that same thing for years. Oddly, I never looked up the meaning.

A Libertarian is one who believes in the idea of smaller government.

For Libertarians, it's all about he power of the individual and his or her liberty.

That means the smaller the government, the better. Some believe in no government whatsoever.

Over the years, where each Libertarian draws the line has changed.

Watch this entertaining video of comedian Bill Maher about where he believes the party stands today in 2013.

Bleeding Cubbie Blue in 2013

2013-04-06T09:52:00.000-04:00

Billy Chicago had all winter to rest

and build up a fresh

supply of healthy blue blood.

Question of the day:

How long will the new supply last?

Headlines Hint:

"The Cubs had back-to-back hits Friday night for the first time since the first inning of opening day".
"It doesn't take a Sabermetrician to point out this isn't exactly a modern day version of Murderers Row".
"Somebody is going to have to get hot. Hopefully it's the whole team at one time. We don't really have a whole lot going on right now".
