Whenever I attended a Cubs game (and was seated in the bleachers) I would always bring a “decoy” ball that I always envisioned myself throwing back instead of the actual ball, because, God-damn...it’s a MAJOR LEAGUE BALL!!! I never fulfilled that goal, but I will continue to do it if I need to...

BEST goal of the playoffs wasn’t even a goal. Andrew Shaw’s header will stand as my favorite goal of all-time. That’s why he’s my favorite player of the Hawks...

Dumbass, a “Blackhawk” isn’t a derogatory name for a Native American. Look it up, the Redskins have a racist name.

I don’t get it...what joke?

Sore loser...

I’m sure Morrissey approves of this news.

I’m forwarding this good news to Morrissey asap.

These people do realize there’s a team of 4 or 5 cameras stationed around the park that will give them video of his at-bat with a million times more clarity and resolution, right?

This happened to me when I was a kid. I decided I wanted to have a party...my birthday is always close to (but never on) Thanksgiving, so it wasn’t always the best time to have a party. I always attended my classmates’ parties, but when it came for everyone else to attend mine, nobody showed. It absolutely destroyed…

The MVP of that game should be whomever called the passing play at the 1-yard line...

I sometimes commute (by bike) to work and on the way home one night, I got "buzzed" by a large, luxury SUV which laid on its horn at the exact moment it almost clipped me. After changing my underwear and gathering my senses from the side of the road, I noticed that the light ahead had a LONG backup of cars and that…

I hope the Bulls can go far in the playoffs...

As a teacher, I can tell you that it drives me nuts when parents pull their kids right after (or right before) a vacation. Why? So they can save few bucks with off-peak costs,...it irks me that they disvalue education, but rather value the chance to pay 1500 less for their vacation. How about you teach your kids a…

What am I missing in Matt Wilson's story about the "rubber bands?" Huh?

All this talk of "Tesla-killing" reminds me of all the smart phones that came out shortly (relatively speaking) after the iPhone and how "this or that phone" was going to be the "iPhone killer." Don't get me wrong, I've never owned an iPhone and I'm not an Apple fanboy...but it just reminded me of all that rhetoric....

How have smart phone gotten this far without an alert that tells the person that is recording that their phone is being held incorrectly?

I just did the easiest thing in the world and donated $10....here's hoping that this cool dude can buy a TESLA with his earnings...wouldn't that be sweet?

I've been someone that has been watching this car/motorcycle closely and I'm not any of the things you describe...I would LOVE to use it as a "commuter" car for going to-and-from work....what's wrong with that?

Can anyone confirm this, but isn't he supposed to face Mecca? If he wasn't, then Allah is going to have a "come to Jesus" meeting with him. (yup, a mixed-metaphor....I went there...)

(raising my glass)...Here! Here!
