Sweet Uncle Lou’s Friday Roundup: The “Ten Wins in a Row!” Edition
Happy Crosstown “Rivalry” weekend, everyone! It’s a battle for the ages as we head to the bad side of the tracks to take on the suddenly-overachieving White Sox in what is sure to be the most exciting series since we did this series a couple of weeks ago. Your Roundup tips are the only things that make me want to wake up in the morning.
- What if you score five runs a series like we do?
- Brian Fuentes’ “balk.” (HT: Pre)
- 100+ years of scoreboard watching. SPOILER: We’re losing on every single one of them.
- The Baseball Gauge should be fun, even if spelling “gauge” never is.
- Congratulations to the Chicago Bulls for unloading Kirk Hinrich’s contract, and for HIDING AN EVIL ROBOT READING A BOOK ON HOW TO COOK HUMANS!
- For once (well, seven times), Walt Disney tries NOT to terrify and depress you.
- How well do you know your movie poster font type?
- Happy belated 35th birthday, Jaws! Smile, you son of a bitch!
- Unless, of course, all time travelers hate bunnies.
- Redefining “boner.” (SFW? You decide.)
- All these years, Toad has been disrespecting you.
- Sad Keanu is hilarious, and Keanu is still a terrible actor, but I never realized what a good dude he is.
- The other 98 places are all in St. Louis.
- I sure hope dad doesn’t find out that the Cubs just lost 2 of 3 to the Mariners.
- What you should have learned in school when you weren’t sleeping through class.
- Be sure to click through to see the second image. Oops.
- I’m on a highway to where?
- Is there anything duct tape can’t do?
- Venus during the day with the naked eye. I WANT TO BELIEVE.
- Your brain (yes, even YOURS) is pretty amazing. It took me forever to get the 3D image to “spin” the other way.
- Great moments in sports history…reenacted.
- Vote for Webb! (HT: Tom Trebelhorn)
- The 20 Worst Something Somethings. (HT: Ned Ryerson) The 20 Worst Names are outstanding.
- TWEET OF THE WEEK: Please let it be called Bash Brother.
- NIGHTMARE FUEL OF THE WEEK: SPIDER CRAB!
Oh, and here’s some bonus nightmare fuel with horrifying animal hybrids! - FEED READ OF THE WEEK: Rejected New Yorker cartoons. (HT: Weebs)
That’s it for me, folks. I’m posing for a bobblehead depicting me doing my taxes in a John Deere hat. Enjoy the weekend games. I mean the USA World Cup, of course. Who the hell would enjoy OUR games?

Jose Canseco porn = possibly most disguising thing ever
I can tell you right now that saxophone is missing a mouthpiece, so even if he knew how to play one he couldn’t play the one he was holding. I COULD comment on the general ridiculousness of the entire picture, but no, I want to point out the inaccuracy of his instrument.
