"Super Sox" ground Pilots in season opener

White Sox 5, Pilots 3 (10 innings)

The Super Sox debuted today at Sick's Stadium in Seattle, Washington, conveniently located within view of lovely Mt. Rainier. A less-than-enthusiastic crowd of 14,145 showed up and cheered tepidly for their team. They didn't seem to be too hapy to have them back, as they were still bitter that the team had abandoned them after one season for Milwaukee.

I have decided, after a long layoff, to try and get back into APBA baseball. I have three seasons worth of teams laying arond gathering dust-1964, 1969 and 1936. I bought 1936 first, intending to "recreate" that entire White Sox season, but eventually lost interest.

I should write I guess for the hell of it. But there is no fun in doing it just for yourself. You'd like to share it with as many people as possible. That is the...

A few weeks ago I posted an entry entitled "Alternate Super Bowls" which matched up the losers of the NFC and AFC Championship games from 1966 to the present. I present Part II-in which I give the match ups between NFL champions and champs from other leagues that existed at various points in football history. Let us just assume that the NFL played nice with these leagues, cut them into a piece of the money pie, and allowed them to share the wealth. Yes, of course. George Halas sez: "&^%$#@!...

I thought my Trib headlines about Barack Obama were gone after Politically Incorrect got revamped. They aren't, so here we go:

This first one was written the night Obama was elected. I felt that the joke was a bit stale, but I wrote it anyway.

Damn! I was thinking along the same lines. I don't know if the joke works because the Trib endorsed Obama, but in Dan McGrath's sports section today we might see something like this:
