Zelly, baby, I have two words for you: Whizzer Enterprises.
2. Sammy and the Cubs
I know you’re skeptical, but Sam Zell made his decision to sell the Cubs before the game started.
3. What’s the deal?
Hey, Carlos Zambrano, you want to talk about an extension. How about the full extension of Adam Dunn on those two home-run shots.
4. South Side massacre
Oh, and I haven’t forgotten about you Sox. C’mon, 12 runs to Cleveland? That’s a crime a dozen.
5. Elder statement
Jose Contreras got shelled and left in the second inning. His ERA is a whopping 63 … same as his age.
6. Pitch hunt
Paging Freddy Garcia, Dr. Garcia, please pick up the line.
7. He’s Zen!
Congrats, Phil Jackson, on the Hall of Fame. I’ll understand if you want to celebrate in L.A. and not here: Let’s see, a guest list with Jessica Alba or Dennis Franz? How to choose?
8. Vitale signs
Listening to the NCAA pregame coverage, it didn’t sound like Dick Vitale was upset about missing the Hall. I dunno, it all sounds like wounded goose to me.
9. Matter of perspective
Can you imagine if Mark Cuban (right) or Dan Snyder owned the Cubs? Tribune doesn’t look so bad now, does it?
FIVE THINGS …
… that keep Dick Vitale from the Hall
– Diaper dandies too young to vote
– He’s annoying, baby!
– Committee chairman Billy Packer
– One shining moment blinds voters
– Bob Knight, character witness
