May 23, 2014: Sale of the Century
$27. That’s how much I paid for Chris Sale in our fantasy baseball auction draft. It took a lot for me to draft someone from the White Sox. Normally, there is nobody from the White Sox on my team. This … Continued
May 22, 2014: Outnumbered
It was bound to happen. We couldn’t go through the entire playoffs undefeated at home, right? It sure looked good early on, as the Hawks put it in cruise control after being up 2-0 in the 2nd period. Then, it … Continued
May 21, 2014: Winning is contagious
It looks like the Cubs and Sox are catching that disease the Blackhawks are plagued with: Winning. Maybe it’s short lived, but it’s great when it’s happening. With the Cubs on a 3 game winning streak, and the Sox with … Continued
May 20, 2014: One Love
This is the guy I want. Forget Carmelo. This is the guy that the Bulls should go after. Do it now GarPax… don’t wait. We already know he will NOT resign in Minnesota. We got the pieces, more than enough … Continued

After 40 games, the Cubs sit with a 13-27 mark. That’s good for worst in the majors. Are they really this bad? I’d like to think not. I’d like to think they go on a run at some point and … Continued
May 16, 2014: The Hate Files

May 15, 2014: Falling in Place
What else can go right for the Hawks right now? First, the Penguins get elminated (I wasn’t really worried about them), but guess I’d much rather face the Rangers in the Finals WHEN we get there. Then, Seabrook’s dump-in bounced off … Continued
May 14, 2014: Closeout Kings
It was the Blackhawks, 11-2 in closeout games the past 6 seasons, vs the Wild, 5-0 at home this postseason, matched up in Game 6 Tuesday night. Was it ever in doubt? Heck yes it was. Yet, at the end of the … Continued
