Dodgies! Dodgies! Sox. Sox.


First and foremost:

The Los Angeles Dodgers are in first place in the NL West. Worst to freakin' first in a month? It might not be a pretty season, but it's a fun season.

Second and not-as-important:

The Chicago White Sox are quickly becoming my least favorite team thanks to Ozzie Guillen. What is with this guy? He makes this talented bunch of guys look like a bunch of punks. I grew up hating the Twins and "couldn't care less"ing about the Sox. Now, it's reversed. The Twins are a class act and the Sox do things like last night's game against the Yankees where:

--Yanks give up four (FOUR!!) runs thanks to a series of errors and mishaps, ending up losing by one run.
--Guillen gets tossed several innings later for berating an umpire about a good call at first, then proceeds to show up the homeplate umpire with profanities...why? One close call in a game where they've been spotted four runs. Pathetic.

Just a few days back, he expressed public surprise that a struggling starter made it past the 7th Inning Stretch. I really can't imagine playing for that guy. Why would you want to win for a manager like that?

React to me, Chicago! It's your show!
