My sidekick doesn’t seem to care that the Cubs are going to be lousy again this year.
Season starts in eleven days…we are tied for first place until then.
Lou Piniella Retires
This should go on 26outs.com, but, hey, why not throw it here.
Sweet Lou is hanging up his manager-cleats at the end of the 2010 season.
Too bad. I was hoping Piniella would surpass Bobby Cox in the ‘most times sent to the showers early’ category.
Sad day in Mudville.
Cubs Info
Just a friendly reminder, 26outs.com is still up and rolling. And Carlos Zambrano is less than good. Horrible, in fact…first outing was a dismal 4-fucking-outs-horrible.
Quite unfortunately, the other Big Z, Matt Zignego, has been sitting on his thumb and not blogging. As bjordan would say, sad panda. Regardless, Gameday Audio is functional again, and I’m streaming currently. Go Dempster; Go Cubs.

Not my Concern
From the Onion…I almost missed it. After dealing with Prior’s arm issues in Chicago for several years, it finally laughable.
Mark Prior Just Needs To Stop By Hospital For A Sec To Get Some T.J. Surgery
PEORIA, AZ—Padres pitcher Mark Prior informed teammates Monday that he just has to pop in to the hospital for "one quick sec" to have Tommy John connective tissue reconstruction surgery performed on his right arm. "Hey guys, can you pull over for a minute? My U.C. lig is just killing me and I gotta get a little T.J. before the game," Prior reportedly told fellow pitchers Jake Peavy and Chris Young after tearing his ulnar collateral ligament while the trio was driving to the ballpark. "Just a quick Teej—pop out the lig, pop in a tendon, no biggie. I'd do it myself, but I just had some ro-co [rotator-cuff surgery] last night and I can't move my arm. You can leave the car running, I'll be back in a minute tops." Prior will not be able to throw a baseball for 16 to 18 months.
FYI…this is the same dude who injured himself stepping into a hot tub.
