Welcome!!!

Welcome to everyone who found this blog! First things first, the man you see pictured with a healthy glass of wine in his hand, and a jim dandy White Sox shirt on, is my uncle. He is one of the finest human beings ever to walk the earth, and this blog is dedicated to him.

Secondly, I'm not really sure who would want to read anything here. As I stated before, this blog was started by me strictly for theraputic purposes at this point. If something is on here that generates a reaction in you, by all means feel free to share it. If not, that's fine too. This is a fly-by-night operation, so no pressure.

Third, we live in an era where sports information has never been more accessible. Yet somehow most of it manages to be filtered and watered down in many respects by certain media/sports networks/websites. It's my wish to have one little sanctuary where information/thoughts/feelings are free of agenda or spin, or b.s. that exists in todays sportsworld. Hopefully that will exist here.

Fourth, LETS HAVE SOME FUN!!!

Well That's A New One...

While watching the White Sox decide that they'd like to urinate away their chances at making the postseason by losing 3 out of 4 to the worthless and baseball incompetent Baltimore Orioles, I needed to look for something in sports to distract me that wasn't Chicago Bears related. I didn't have luck at first since the Bears released their (ahem) "depth chart" today that really is more of a rough draft since Devin Hester is listed as a starting receiver despite a groin pull and Devin Aromashadu being WAY better at the position than Hester being listed as the #3. Then my brother brought THIS gem to my attention.

It seems our old friend Brian Cushing made the news again, relating to his positive test of a banned substance. After amazingly being allowed to keep his silly award after a second vote was taken, he is now trying to double down on his luck, by trying to convince the NFL to reduce his suspension because his reason for testing positive was (drumroll) "Overtrained Athlete Syndrome"!!!!!

YES! OF COURSE IT WAS!!! Man we really all owe Brian an apology don't we? We're soooo sorry Brian!!!! How could we have missed that?! I mean obviously Ben Johnson, Floyd Landis, Mark McGwire, Jason Giambi, Andy Pettite, Roger Clemens and the others offered that lame excuse too right? Shame on us! We really should have known that it was yet another case of "OAS". "OAS" has been a silent epidemic in sports. It's obviously been responsible for at least 90% of the positive test results for performance enhancing drugs over the years. Arnold Schwarzenegger himself told people he too was a victim of "OAS" because he never took anything during his competitive bodybuilding days. Lyle Alzado also told the world that "OAS got me what I wanted but it also got me very sick." Vince McMahon of the WWE was famously on trial for distributing cases of "OAS" throughout his entire organization. And you guessed it, Barry Bonds' defense for his indictment is that he too is a victim of "OAS".

WOW...I'm stunned. I can't believe Brian thinks the league is this stupid. Apparently his owner thinks the league is this stupid too because Bob McNair actually met with Goodell today trying to convince him of this nonsense.

Here's hoping Wyatt Goodell holds up this picture to McNair and asks "Does OAS give you boobies too?"
