  1. This is the best analysis I've seen today. I too like fat dongs.
  2. Much like Sparky Anderson, I assumed Zimmer was pushing 100 a good 25 years before he actually passed away.
  3. Why is the crime so bad? Predators of the tourists? I thought the area was gentrified? Why aren't the Yuppies screaming? Over 100 fewer available police in the area than last year. The active fostering of a "who gives a [expletive]" attitude with the bars and not bothering to crack down on overcrowding and overserving. The local clubs and shelters that are severely underfunded and understaffed (and because of the fewer police, no police backup) that kick troubled kids out after any sign of trouble or overcrowding and then they just hang around indefinitely. It's an area with a lot of money and a lot of dumb people and a lot of people willing to prey on that and not nearly enough police to monitor it.
  4. Uh, is that Miley Cyrus as your avatar?
  5. Phantom bullets flying across from Wrigley: http://crimeinboystown.blogspot.com/2014/06/abracadabra-crime-stats-wont-include.html The murdered Cubs fan who the police refuse to say was murdered: http://crimeinboystown.blogspot.com/2014/06/jacob-klepacz-case-long-wait-for-science.html Rahm's shell game continues as the neighborhood around Wrigley continues to spiral out of control.
  6. The only white I will tolerate in my backup catcher is BLANCO.
  7. Who the [expletive] is Whiteside. What the [expletive] is wrong with Castillo.
  8. HA! That's the first thing that popped in my mind too. So where is Hamsterdam? Wrigleyville.
  9. Oh, come on, the crime rate is plummeting! Yup. Wrigleyville and its surrounding area are the epitome of this. They're desperate to keep the crime numbers as fudged as possible.
  10. Severely understaffed; basically no cops want to work in this area and take every opportunity to transfer out once they can.
  11. For SSR: https://twitter.com/BigDub74/status/473194944661037056/photo/1
  12. Guess they cant move to Rosemont, Schaumburg, Naperville, River North or anywhere with a bar scene then. These drunk sexual assaults happen everywhere. The only chance is to move the team to Sandwich, IL i guess. That's just the latest disgusting cherry on top of a turd sundae; Wrigleyville and Boystown have been going to [expletive] for a while, and to chalk it up to just being "bar neighborhood behavior" is bull [expletive] because it's clearly been getting a LOT worse in the last few years. A lot less cops, the local shelters/clubs have no money and are basically out of control, and you have the city as a whole actively fostering a "come party and whatever happens, who gives a [expletive]?" environment Everyone from Tunney to Rahm is desperate to keep what is a veritable crime wave from Belmont to Waveland out of the news; crimes are routinely reclassified to keep from seeming as bad it is, but the area is rife with whatever you want: robberies, assaults, brawls, holdups, bank/store robberies, open prostitution and now sexual assaults and actual homicides. It's a serious issue and a sad, sad downturn that's getting next to no attention. I'd honestly feel safer hanging around the Cell right now than Wrigley.
  13. Seriously, I would love it if they could escape the hellhole this neighborhood is rapidly becoming: http://crimeinboystown.blogspot.com/2014/06/witnesses-unconscious-woman-sexually.html
  14. How dare you imply neely was doing a FJM.
  15. Did not expect tiny to be the first one to melt down.
  16. I refuse to ever own any kind of hockey jersey ever because of Kevin Smith.
  17. I'm rooting for the Blackhawks just because of all of the ridiculous food deals that pop up for all of these games.
  18. Thanks. One last thing, just to kinda swerve it back to the halfassed point I thought I was making before; so would run differential perhaps be a more prudent tool when talking about a team that's a bit more...permanent? You kinda touch on my thinking with the mention of trades; since so much of the team seems to be made of players that will be gone, should be gone, will have less playing time, should have less playing time, etc., then it really doesn't do a whole lot in terms of being optimistic in regards to next year. Like it's a very "this team, right now"-type of stat as opposed to something more predictive.
