Looks like Sammy Sosa’s sneeze-induced back spasm sprained a ligament and will put him on the disabled list. Let this be a lesson. If you have to sneeze, before you let it rip, “achoos” wisely.
Dare to compare
Cubs and Sox fans usually grouse that their teams never put up their best offense when their top starters are on the mound. Looking at the run support for Chicago’s pitching elite, that’s not necessarily true. Run support figures below represent teams’ runs scored per nine innings while that starter pitched.
AVERAGE RUNS PER GAME
Cubs 5 (38 games)
Sox 4.9 (38 games)
Title bout
Looks like CBS will will pick up an
untitled sitcom based on the life of sports columnist and co-host of ESPN’s “Pardon the Interruption” Tony Kornheiser. While word is the show might be called “Listen Up,” here are some other ideas:
– “Kornie But True”
– “Bringing Up Baldy”
– “A Face Made For Radio”
– “Everybody Loves Tony”
– “Hope & Tony”
– “Three’s Company, Four Means Tony’s Here”
– “Jason Alexander Doesn’t Even Look Like Me”
