9 reasons to look forward to baseball season
Any way Jim Leyland decides to go — and knowing him, he will go in many different directions — this is a potential 950-run monster. Here is one possible combination: Curtis Granderson, Placido Polanco, Miguel Cabrera, Magglio Ordonez, Gary Sheffield, Carlos Guillen, Jacque Jones, Edgar Renteria, Ivan Rodriguez. In 2007, that grouping included five hitters at .296 or better, three at .320 or better, five 20-plus home-run hitters, three 100-plus RBI men and the rare 20-20-20-20 accomplishment. With this group in place and healthy, there's little reason to worry about Dontrelle Willis' adjustment to the American League. 5. The National League West race. Good luck winning it, as the division that gave us the 2007 NLCS matchup is poised once again. The Dodgers have added Joe Torre, Andruw Jones and Hiroki Kuroda in hopes of erasing the memory of their late-September meltdown.
Chicago as a 'Grey' area?
Veronica Mars" got its best-ever ratings in its season premiere Wednesday, when it was up against "Lost." By the way, thanks to reader Dave Juhl of Naperville, who points out that WPWR-Ch. 50 rebroadcasts each episode of "Veronica Mars" at 9 p.m. Sunday. I don't know about you, but when that full-scale riot broke out on "Prison Break" on Monday (and how cool was that episode, by the way?), I was most concerned about the older prisoner's pet cat, which ran off during the melee. I was sad to hear that Kathy Griffin and her husband Matt Moline are divorcing. Based on what I saw on her reality show, he seemed like an incredibly nice guy and very supportive of his wife's career in an extremely cutthroat industry. What a shame. I'm obsessed with how "The Amazing Race" is filmed. When I saw a bit of the sixth edition of the show being shot here in Chicago, each team had its own sound person and camera person, and from watching the show, I've always assumed that, when the team is driving, the camera person rides up front and the sound guy sits in the back.
Bill Clinton's Impenetrable Press Strategy
Michelle Obama and Elizabeth Edwards do not. Turn the page. Ignore him since he is not conducting himself appropriately as a former President. Treat him exactly like you would treat Michelle or Elizabeth -- just the ordinary "supportive" spouse he claims he is. Don't show up where he is. Don't take his calls. Don't take the Clinton Campaign's calls if it has anything to do w/the Bill Clinton, SPOUSE. He isn't running the Nation and has violated (again) all sense of propriety, so IGNORE HIM...and focus instead on Hillary Clinton. Then, you won't have to be reduced to his basing in your face and finger wagging...like children. Oops! I forgot, the "child" identity is Mr. Obama's. Nice. .
