An African-American President?

A free and democratic Egypt?

Your move, Cubs.

Is Mount Bradley ready to erupt?

One day after saying he felt hatred on a daily basis during his disappointing season in Chicago, Milton Bradley has seemingly changed his outlook on things. SEEMINGLY.

Per AP these are some of his comments after yesterday's game with the Nationals : "I feel love for me. I love me," Bradley said. "I look in the mirror and I go out there and play. I feel the love from my teammates. I feel the love from the coaching staff and from myself. I go out there and try to do things. That's all I can do."

What to make of all this?

Well, first off I am not necessarily taking this at face value because this sure isn't the Milton Bradley that I know. Further, I do not think that Milton Bradley has suddenly converted to some new age touchy-feely thinker complete with a life coach and all that. (That said, it might not be a bad idea for the Cubs to assign him a handler like the Rangers do with Josh Hamilton) No, I get the feeling that this is similar to a small tremor before a huge catastrophic earthquake or a gas release before a violent volcanic eruption.

Maybe I am reading this wrong but I think Mount Bradley is ready to blow.

Stay tuned.

This could be epic.

Why do the Dodgers have problems with the Cubs?

I note that with Thursday's Dodgers victory over the Cubs, the Dodgers improved their all time record against the Cubs to 1015 - 1014.

1015 - 1014?

Considering how good the Dodgers have been historically and how bad the Cubs have been, how could this be? Didn't Dodger greats Sandy Koufax, Jackie Robinson, Lee Lacy, Roy Campanella, Duke Snider, Jeff Hamilton and Steve Garvey rack up their share of wins against the hapless Cubs over the years? Guess not.

To add insult to injury, the Cubs fans don't even care. They just drink beer in the bleachers, sun themselves out there, call their bestest girlfriend to let them know they are at the game, mimic Ferris Bueller and also dispose of partially filled beer cups by throwing them at opposing players. They typically don't even know the score at any time during the game. Hey, truth is a defense to any libel action so back off!

Dodgers, you can't beat that?

Come on, bear down! It's the Cubs.

(I am going to be monitoring this a little closer from now on. Something is going on here that I just can't put my finger on)
