Shame On You Chicago Baseball Fans....Where's The Love?

So this morning I get an e-mail update from MLB.COM about the deadline for all star voting and how the polls close at 11:59pm tomorrow (Thursday) night. As I pondered by ballot as I officially voted this morning, I searched the net for the voting results. Now I know that the Blackhawks run to the Stanley Cup, and the LeBron rumor mill have overshadowed our two bad baseball teams for most the season so far.....

BUT.....

What I found from the official results on MLB.COM......shame on you "Chicago Baseball Fan."

Three Possible Players Kenny Williams Should Look To Trade For....

This is why I absolutely love the game of baseball. Within a span of three weeks, the Chicago White Sox 15-4 record have placed them only a full two games back of first place. The White Sox have done exactly what the experts thought they should do, take advantage of the schedule they have been handed. Between two last place teams in the National League (PIT/WASH) and some minor challenges (ATL/DET) in this stretch of June, the White Sox have put together their best month of baseball since June of 2006.

The best part of a winning streak and getting back into the division race is the White Sox have turned from sellers to buyers. The recent success has put them in the argument of how to improve before the trade deadline. So with the South Siders willing to spend some money, here are three ideas for Kenny Williams to look into.

Rumors Are Rumors....Just Give Me The Facts LeBron!

"The Summer Of LeBron" has officially begun with the NBA Draft coming to a close last night and NBA free agency set to begin next week. Possibly what could be considered the greatest collection of free agents in NBA history are all set to sail on a journey that will not only bring them riches, but many irate discussions among fans about the efforts of their respective team in landing one of the top names available.

The Chicago Bulls find themselves right in the middle of "TSOL" with the way the organization has gone about slashing payroll headed into the off season. The Bulls currently sit around $30,000,000 dollars under the NBA's salary cap for the '10-'11 season which could lure one BIG free agent or work the numbers to bring in two BIG free agents. The Bulls not only have the money to spend, but we all know that the youth and skill of Derrick Rose/Joakim Noah is as attractive to any free agent wanting to win a title in a short period of time in a weak Eastern Conference.

Ever since the top seeded Cleveland Cavaliers early exit from the NBA postseason happened, story after story about where LeBron James (the top free agent on the NBA market) would land popped up quicker than tweets about the World Cup. However, how much truth is behind the stories we read and can we really trust where the information is coming from?

Don't Believe The Hype...These Are Still The 2010 Chicago White Sox

Can you believe it??

The Chicago White Sox are the hottest team in Major League Baseball winning their ninth straight game (and 14 of their last 16) and now stand at 2.5 games back of the first place Minnesota Twins. The White Sox recent stretch to go along with the Twins recent slide, the White Sox have erased six full games off the Twins division lead in only 18 days. Simply amazing and heading into the end of interleague play with a three game series against the inner-city rival Chicago Cubs, how can Sox fans not be as excited as their teams' play has been of late?

Although I am very happy about the recent success the White Sox have had, and am looking forward to this weekend's series against the Cubbies (who have lost nine of their last 14). I am not buying that this team is for real based on their record against a weaker National League and the teams they have beaten on this stretch.

Will The Success Of Team USA Soccer Mean Anything For The USA......

Today, history was made in South Africa as dramatic as anything in professional sports. For the first time since 1930, the United States won a group in a World Cup. The tension was monumental as the United States (0-0-2) needed a win to advance and yet through 90 minutes of play could not find the back of the net. Then on a last gasp rush to the net with a four on two breakaway, Landon Donovan (who most would consider the face of US Soccer) was simply in the right place at the right time striking a goal off a rebound to send the US to the next round.

So as with every other sport, what does the success of the US Soccer team in Johannesburg, South Africa do for the sport in their own home country?

Paying For Your Own Party?? See: LA Lakers....

Congratulations to the Los Angeles Lakers on winning their 16th NBA Championship defeating the Boston Celtics in a game seven snore fest on Thursday evening. Kobe Bryant took home the NBA Finals MVP even after the great closer that he is could not close out the Celtics in crunch time last night. Kobe finished game seven with a team high 23 points but 11 of which came from the line. All in all, the NBA is the most predictable league in professional sports when it comes to projecting who will be in it at the end.

The parade should be something special I am sure as basketball rivals USC football in Los Angeles, but the planning for the parade is a little sketchy. How come you play a 82 game season, then 40 games in 40 nights and then you are franchise is stuck with the bill for the celebration?

That simply makes no sense.
