Durr, I am a total fucking idiot. In arguably the most predictable story of all time, Cedric Benson was arrested for assault after punching some guy (I'm going to skip the "allegedly" crap) in the face at a bar in Austin, TX. Given that this is his 3rd arrest for a physical altercation during an offseason in the past 3 years AND that there are multiple witnesses from the incident AND that it took place at 1:30am at a crowded bar AND that he's reached a 9.5 on the mongoloid scale... I think the following quotes are even more amazing (from ESPN ): Bartender Bryan White told police that once outside, Benson complained to people passing by that " all these white boys are ganging up on me and kicking me out ." One of Benson's attorneys, Sam Bassett, said his client " looks forward to telling his side of the story at the appropriate time ." " Though he does not entirely agree with the version of facts recited in the court filings ," Bassett...

Every Chicago resident, this post is for you. I know it hurt when all your friends were jumping on the Blackhawks bandwagon, and you just didn't know how to get on board. When you jumped for joy at a Byfuglien goal, they would oust you immediately when you incorrectly stated "Go Bi-Fuglian!" The sports world is a cruel and unrelenting beast, and fans that suddenly start rooting for the winning team are generally frowned upon*. Luckily, I'm here to give you a chance to jump in with the White Sox, currently the hottest team in baseball. They're not in first place yet, and they just had their win-streak broken at 11, but they are definitely on the rise and have the potential to be an interesting team to watch down the stretch. Instead of waiting until August to care (and subsequently playing catchup on who the hell is on the team), let's get you some basic talking points to get in with some fans: "Gordon Beckham is really not having a good year...do you thin...

(Looks like s omeone just credit carded the Cap'n ) In advance of the upcoming draft the Bulls are making moves. This just in from ESPN the Bulls are going to send Kirk to the Wiz kids and the 17th pick for cap space. Im all for this, ive been wanting to see Kirk go for a while. Hes a good player but has no role on the bulls. Lets hope we can get two studs in the free agent market and start kicking ass like its the mid 90's. TPC

Lifted from barstool (www.barstoolsports.com) this afternoon: Just too good not to repost. I love this guy. KEG

And of course, the Dong's favorite stud DBuff scores his 11th goal this postseason (beast!) and Patrick Kane redeemed himself with the OT game winner. If you haven't seen this shot yet, it's amazing (and not just because of the awesome mullet: The cup returns to Chicago for the first time in 49 years. So wonderful. I think even 50 or 60 people watched the game. FYI in New York, the only indication that the Hawks won the Stanely freakin Cup was the bottom screen ticker on Baseball Tonight. Thank god for SlingBox and screw ESPN. -KEG

The chick in the Toews jersey is hot. Oh, and that's MJ. He looks good in that jersey. I think he's been at all the Hawks home games in the finals, which is funny since I don't remember him attending any of the Bulls playoff games... I think he's really starting to hurt our chances of getting a big time FA - we should bring back Pipp, Kerr, Rodman, whoever and showcase them around a bit (we're a loyal organization!!). Aside from Vince Vaughn, I think he was the only celeb they showed on TV. By comparison, the Lakers/Celtics game had the pope and 97% of the Vatican. Anyhoo, Byfuglian continues to extend the Dongediction, scores 2 goals and we're 1 win away from the first Stanley Cup since 1961. This is very exciting. I was in Chicago over the weekend and saw more people in Hawks gear than I've ever seen in my life, including when we were popular with Roenick, Belfour and Chelios. Hot chicks too. Must be the ice girls influence: Sidenote: I think that's th...

Hawks in 4. -KEG
