The Hawks Promotional Schedule

Do we think the Hawks were a little worried about attendance this upcoming season? I apologize for not getting to this sooner. The Hawks announced their promotional schedule last week, and that's always a chance for some chicanery from the butcher's-dog-smiling like myself. We could start

The Cubs Tug-Of-War With Perception

The Cubs are having the exact season they should be having, it's just warped by what's around them. Back in my full-time Cubs writing days, "The Ivy Drip Era," let's call it, the worst day to write anything was after losing a
