So Much For Synergies


The front page of the Chicago Tribune sports section has the following stories:

White Sox beat Texas
Heat beat Mavericks
Michael Jordan buys into the Charlotte Bobcats
Colin Montgomergy leads Tiger Woods at at US Open
Mike Downey with blather on the US Open.

The top banner has teases for stories inside on the World Cup.

Hiding at the bottom one sees:

INSIDE FRIDAY SPORTS | A high school coach's unexpected dismissal | Astros rally to sweep Cubs

The Cubs can't even get some love from their owner. Looks like the Chandler's are right.

Gutless


All this talk about bean ball wars and retaliation stems from the White Sox-Rangers series. All these people are missing a huge point. In the AL, where there is the designated hitter rule, the pitchers never have to worry about facing the music themselves.

So long as pitchers only have to worry about their pocketbook being hurt and not their skulls, retaliation in the AL is a joke. You want a reason to get rid of the DH? That may be the best.
