The Tim Anderson square up reminded me of situations I have seen in gym classes at Percy Julian and OPRF. One kid (Ramirez) overreacts and the other kid grew up in a swing first, ask questions second, household (TA).

He swings first (and second) misses both and then gets KO'ed. Once the gym teacher breaks up the scuffle - He ends up stumbling to the nurses office then gets in-school suspension after they determine he's not concussed.

Undoubtedly.

OPRF had more fist fights before the sun fully came up than any other high school in the country.

Change of pace, let me start with the White Sox. Historically, I hate Tim Anderson but I am solidly in his corner on both of those issues. Ramirez was looking for a fight there and that punch was pure flailing luck. Secondly, the whole team should have gotten together and beat Grandal senseless. Leave the team early cause you are not in the lineup?!?!? He should have been DFAed the next day.

I sincerely thank you for not texting Wednesday Night. I had jumped out of bed to first and second with no outs only to not score, I would have been awake for hours afterwards. I am still solidly in Ross's corner. He sets the culture that is so horriby missing on the South Side.

I love your position on the conference realignment and totally agree. The biggest issue is how to pace your drinking when you are having your first beer at the 11AM for Michigan/Michigan St. knowing you have to be somewhat conscious for the 9pm start of Iowa/USC?!?!? This is truly the dilemma.

I am purposely not watching any reports on the Bears. I will make my own judgements and am totally excited for progress. I know they will be better than expected.
