DESPITE THE JAG BAG REFS, USA ADVANCES IN WORLD CUP SOCCER

In my home town of Chicago, one of my favorite sports radio guys (now on tv) is Mike North. He coined the term jag bag (I think you get the jist of it) when he refered to someone he didn't like, or was an a-hole in general. well lets apply that term to the two Jag Bag!!! refs that screwed us out of two goals, one each in the last two games.  The first ( the most talked about) was so intentionally called  in my opinion (USA hater) against Slovenia, I thought he'd  get the crap beat out of him right there on the field. The u.s. should have called a cop because of the two muggings that were taking place in front of the box by the slovenia defense where so blatant (as we speak robbers in Manhatten are watching the video to learn from it) they should have looked for weapons. I'll give FIFA credit, they dumped this p.o.s. from the next round and probably the rest of the tournament (go on back to your third world country and ref some sandlot games.....) so kudos to them. The second goal that was disallowed, was by the side referee who said u.s. player Clint Dempsey was offside as he scored from the left side of the net while the ref was standing all the way over on the right side. Replay clearly showed Dempsey waited perfectly before kicking what should have been the first goal of the game. Thank god in the extra time Landon Donovan scored the goal heard round the country and the goal that pissed off the rest of the"world". To the rest of the world (In your face....), to team u.s.a. good luck sat..........

Blackhawks win the Cup!!! 2 long droughts down 1 to go

Patrick (ain't tippin the cabbie) Kane delivered the biggest goal in 49 years off a tough angle (only he knew it was in) to win the Stanley Cup last wed in Philadelphia. It took the White sox 88 years to break their drought in 2005 and with the hawks first championship since 1961 in the books there's only 1 chicago team left with a small championship drought (let's guess together lol) drum roll please, the Chicago Cubs. 102 years and counting for the cubbies who lost last night to the mighty (not) Oakland A's 9-5. Cubs first basemen Derek Lee said they palyed like a A ball team last night (I think i've heard that comment before over the years, along with, they blew it in the ninth again) so it looks like will move on to year 104 in 2011 because its not happening in year 103 (2010).

   Let's finish today by getting back to the Blackhawks. I beleive the series changed in game 5 when big Buff (Justin Byfuglien) deceided not to get pushed around anymore by the flyers defensemen Keith Pronger and checked his ass into the boards a couple of times (wasn't the same after those hits) and scored two goals with two helpers (that's new age hockey talk dudes!). Let's hope Rocky Wirtz and the boys of Blackhawks ownership can keep the core of this team signed for a long time because with this much youth and talent they should win at least a couple more Stanley Cups!!!.
