Chicago Sports Update

The Cubs are still number one in baseball after inexplicably splitting the weekend series against the mediocre Dodgers. Their pitching continues to look shaky, especially with The Large Mammal's blood at a constant frothy boil.

The Southsiders' bats woke up last weekend as they dropped 10, 11, and 12 runs in consecutive games on the Twins. Joe Crede had five home runs over the course of said games as Ozzie's latest tirade seems to have worked. With yet another win over Minnesota today, the Sox have chalked up seven in a row and lead the Central by 6.5 games.

After somehow not actually hiring Doug Collins, the Chicago Bulls have offered the head coaching job to the completely inexperienced Vinnie Del Negro. Best known for his stellar mullet, Vinnie takes over as the whacky rumors of trading the number one pick in the draft for Dwayne Wade and the number two pick have seemed to fade away.

Cedric Benson is in trouble with the law yet again, picking up a DWI in Texas on Saturday, hot on the heels of his drunken boating arrest about a month ago. Benson, who is now equally disappointing off of the field as he is on it may have played his last game for the floundering Bears.
