Interesting Forward Pass!

ChiSox Interested in Former Cubbie Henry Blanco

http://www.chicagobreakingsports.com/2009/11/agent-white-sox-express-interest-in-henry-blanco.html





It appears that Henry Blanco might be returning to Chicago, but this time to the South Side. I was not a big Blanco fan, but I did think that the Cubbies made a hugh mistake in letting him go and relying entirely on fatboy Soto at catcher. Blanco would be a great back-up and compliment to AJ, although I could also see the two of them getting into several clubhouse fights.

This make more sense that the Gonzalez rumors, as much as I would love Gonzalez on the South Side.

Ah, the Hot Stove League and baseball rumors. You gotta love it!

Adrian Gonzalez to the White Sox?!

http://www.chicagobreakingsports.com/2009/11/report-of-three-way-trade-talks-involving-adrian-gonzalez-to-the-white-sox-raise-complex-issues.html

The Chicago Tribune is reporting rumors of Adrian Gonzalez to the White Sox for Paul Konerko via the Angels. Joe Crowley of the Sun-Times is basically saying it is crap....

Ken Ober- Host of "Remote Control" Dead

http://tv.yahoo.com/blog/not-a-hoax-ken-ober-mtvs-remote-control-host-dies-at-52--798

The game show - which tested one's knowledge of TV (HM and I would have killed on the show) was basically the start for Colin Quin, Adam Sandler and Kari Wuhrer; plus Denis Leary appeared on several episodes.

SUPER BOWL PREDICTIONS AFTER WEEK 10

HM used to run a weekly post with Super Bowl and Conference Champions. I am assuming that this year he doesn't want to jinx the Purple Pricks, er I mean the Vikings, so I will take over for him as long as he lets me.

NFC CHAMPIONSHIP

New Orleans 24 Vikings 21

AFC CHAMPIONSHIP

Colts 31 Bengals 24

Super Bowl

Saints 35 Colts 28

You gotta go with the unbeaten at least until they lose. And for the Bengals, include me with the "Believers"

THE "UNOFFICIAL" UT RESPONSE

Warning: Language NSFW

Lane Kiffin "Response" To Players Arrest

Has the nerve to brag that his program went "11 months, 11 days" without an incident. Then can't even answer the question- whether or not he has a curfew for his players.

Generally "No Comment!'

MORE BAD NEWS FOR DUKE

(not a good week for teams I root for! I rooting for the Cubbies, hopefully the trend will continue!)

The nation's top hoops recruit, Harrison Barnes picked UNC over Duke!

GO TO HELL, CAROLINA, GO TO HELL!!

CHICAGO BEARS 2009- RIP!

I have been a Bears' fan for a LONG TIME. I can't remember the last time that I was so disgusted over a Bears' team.

Alright you Duke-Haters out there- Enjoy!

First, Nolan Smith is suspended for the first two games- leaving DUKE with 2 scholarship players (one of whom is a freshman) and a walk-on at guard.

Now, freshman PF Mason Plumlee is out indefinitely with a broken wrist suffered in practice!

Ex-Nebraska RB Thunder Collins

...gets life in prison for muder.

Word of advice. Even if you think you are innocent, you shouldn't quote Bobby Knight at your sentencing hearing (well, maybe if you are in Bloomington, Indiana).

Even Lawrence Phillips is not facing life in prison.

Possible Replacement for Jenn Sterger & Friends?

WTF!?

1. Sammy Sosa, trying to be like Michael Jackson?! These pics of Sammy have been popping up all oer the Internet. The "official" response from Sammy's camp is that this lighter shade is a result of "skin rejuvenation" treatment. Huh?! We all expected Sammy to look different after baseball, sans steroids. But we expected him to be lighter in weight, not in skin tone!!

2. Tommie Harris- WTF was he thinking.?!! What a fall from grace (after his first 2 seasons he looked like the next Warren Sapp). Now- just a freakin' mess.

3. And finally, D.C. has the story on Jenn Sterger's apparent decision to have her breast implants removed. WHY!?! http://duelingcouches.blogspot.com/2009/11/what-fuck-jenn-sterger.html This is almost never a good move for an actress/model/hottie. One example comes to mind (maybe HM can think of other examples)- Farrah Forke. Who is Farrah Forke? She played Alex on the old sit-com "Wings" ans she had a beautiful rack. Then she decided to have the breast implants removed (she later claimed that it was due to silicone leakage). Well how was her career after that? Well, the best answer to that is that most of you are asking "Who is Farrah Forke?"

COLLEGE HOOPS 1-347!

http://collegebasketball.rivals.com/content.asp?CID=989561

Time to get ready for college hoops and study all 347 Division 1 schools!!

Can't believe that New Jersey Institute of Technology (NJIT) is once again ranked #347!!

Talk about no respect!

NICE!

No Surprise- Rollie Massimino Better College Coach than Zeke

Isiah can't win an exhibition game against an NAIA team.

Well at least Florida International has hot cheerleaders:

TO TAKE THE PLACE OF BASEBALL

With the World Series concluded, some of you may need other sporting competitions to watch (and maybe bet on- where allowed by law, of course)

BASEBALL'S HOT STOVE LEAGUE IS ON!

THE WORLD SERIES HAS JUST ENDED AND THE CHI-SOX ARE MAKING MOVES.

1. Sox sign Mark Kotsay to a one-year $1.5 million deal.

2. ESPN and others are reporting that the Sox have traded 2B Chris Getz and 3B Josh Fields to the Kansas City Royals for 3B-OF Mark Teahen.

SYRACUSE SPORTS HAVING A BAD WEEK

Pretty good post about "the week that was"at Syracuse!

IS FLORIDA THE BEST COLLEGE FOOTBALL TEAM?

The Gators are #1 in the Polls and more importantly, the BCS. But everyone seems to trash Florida. Florida is barely winning games, the SEC is down this year, the SEC refs are helping Florida, Tim Tebow is not a god, "yada, yada, yada...."

Thoughts on Florida?

AP's Preseason All-America Team

• Luke Harangody Notre Dame 6-8, senior
• Cole Aldrich Kansas 6-11, junior
• Sherron Collins Kansas5-11, senior
• Patrick Patterson Kentucky 6-9, junior
• Kyle Singler Duke 6-8, junior

Three tall white dudes and two other guys that are good.

THINGS I MISSED OVER THE WEEKEND!

1. Didn't go to any Halloween parties this year (but saw some hotties in costume including a chick who got on the bus in full Wonder Woman attire).

2. JJ Redick scored 27 points against the Raptors!! 27 points!

COLLEGE FOOTBALL ROUND-UP!

1. USC v. Oregon- what a showdown! The 2 hottest cheer leading squads in college football. Well, there is a new king of the Pac-10 as Oregon just thrashed the Trojans!

2. DUKE wins its third ACC game in a row! I have no idea when the last time that happened. 1995?

3. RichRod is not there yet-not by a mile. Only watched the first half of this one, so I didn't see it but how could you have 1st and goal at the 1 and not score!!

4. IOWA!?! It really looked like luck was gonna run out for the Hawkeyes before Indiana had it's 2nd straight 4th quarter collapse (Northwestern last week).
