What’s the hurry?
A bicyclist who wears a helmet and stays in the designated bike lanes, should be safe enough on city streets of Chicago, right? Well, not quite. Bicyclists don’t have a prayer of surviving impact with a 2800 VW or - heaven help us - a city bus. Already in 2008 five bicyclists have died in…

Uncle Fatty’s is a Dos Equis Cervazo Beach Party
Uncle Fatty’s is a poplular bar with a tropical resort theme. It kind of reminds me of Gilligan Island re-runs, too. It’s a fun place to go after work for a couple of Dos Equis or Cervazo’s. The music is loud and the decor is louder. The floor is a combination of astroturf and sand. …

I don't remember the last time, guys that went 1-2 in the NBA draft squared up with each other in a Summer League game. Yet, as enticing as watching Beasley and Rose go at it would be, that still wasn't enough to get me to sit down in front of the tube and watch Monday's game. And I'm guessing…

Brian Roberts: The Trade That Wasn't
Say the Cubs had paid an ambulance-chaser's ransom for Brian Roberts during the offseason, sending Sean Marshall, Sean Gallagher, Ronny Cedeno and who knows what else to Baltimore in a rumored 5-for-1 deal for the second baseman. Where would that leave the Cubs today? In a world of hurt, that's…
