We’re going to have to start today’s highly anticipated photo post off with a downer.

I’m kidding. Wait’ll you see these donkeys.

When F-Train is down ten bucks before everyone even arrives (because of prop bets based on WHEN people would arrive), it’s safe to assume things are gonna get out of hand.

Chicago…meet Out of Hand.

The $40 Cure

Monday, June 18th, 2007

I was in bad shape. The Wrigley Field bleachers were all I’d imagined them to be in my mind. Hot, sweaty, perfect. The beer went down like water. The game played out just under our noses.

It’s Gonna Be the Bestest Ever

Monday, June 4th, 2007

Because I am well-versed in libel law, I am going to have to preface this post with a disclaimer. Though satire is protected speech under the First Amendment, some court cases have added the caveat that the satire must be obvious to the reader.  I feel compelled to state this post is a joke, because a reasonable person could see what follows as true, considering  the feckless ridiculousness of Harrah’s performance as steward of the World Series of Poker.
