Oh, man, if EVER a season cried out for a Yogi Berra quote, this one is it folks. It ain't over 'til it's over. The Chicago White Sox and Detroit Tigers have to make up an earlier Hurricane Ike rainout to see whether the ChiSox or Minnesota Twins makes it to the playoffs. Talk about nobody...

...is it next year yet, I have just one thing to say: "Lalala, I can't hear you!" Don't you know it's not something we talk about? Geez, Louise!!! So what if we have clinched home field advantage throughout the playoffs. So what if we have clinched the division (2nd year in a row...

If you're a true, bleed Cubbie Blue, die-hard fan, you know what I'm talking about. This time, however, there is a major difference that is working in our favor. What's that you ask? Why, it's the Milwaukee Brewers! Unlike 1969, when the Mets went on a tear about the time the Cubs experienced...

It's that time of year when three little words set my heart to fluttering. Yes, they are among the three most beautiful words in the world! No, not "I love you". Sheesh, I mean, those three words aren't just for this time of year. No, what gets my pulse racing right about now are the...

The long awaited, much-speculated on Mitchell Report - all 409 pages of it - has finally been released. And, as promised, it names names. And some of them are pretty big.
