Shout(box)ing from the Rooftops…
Aspiring comedian Ryan Dempster probably got a little bit of a lift from the hilarity ensuing just past the left field wall (and across the street) at Brixen Ivy, the well-situated and acousticophobic rooftop on Waveland Ave. Dempster picked up another Wrigley Field win as regular Shoutboxers, Desipiots and some of their wives and [...]

Okay, Since NOT Taking Batting Practice Didn’t Work…
Since HJE has insider access that even the cameras don’t have, allow me to present this scene which unfolded prior to last night’s game in Arizona.
You’re an Episode of The Hills, Tony
Ah, Tony LaRussa. It’s always entertaining playing the Cardinals, because Tony the fucking drama queen is always ready, willing, and able to make a mountain out of a molehill. The latest victim of Tony’s attention-grabbing bullshit is the suddenly-much-more-lovable Jim Edmonds. Over the weekend, Edmonds sparred with his former manager through the [...]
The Scent of Muskbag
Like moths to a flame, we return to the Muskbag. If you don’t believe these things can keep getting increasingly more stupid, prepare to be amazed.

B126 #1B: Jim “I Wish You Were D”Edmonds
Congratulations, Jim Edmonds! You haven’t played a single game as a Chicago Cub. You haven’t pissed and moaned about a single called third strike in blue pinstripes. You haven’t taken a circuitous route and a completely unnecessary dive to catch a single fly ball as a home player in front of the [...]
Things You Should Know About Jim Edmonds (Just in Case)
If the Cubs do end up signing Jim Edmonds today, as the rumors suggest will happen, there is one (and ONLY one) good thing that will come of the signing. Because of the Edmonds rumors, RV directed me to this gold mine, a St. Louis Magazine article about Edmonds’ restaurant. If you dipped [...]
NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!
Jim Hendry, you’ve done an awful lot of dumb things in your tenure as the Chicago Cubs’ general manager. You signed Neifi Perez a couple of times. You thought Shawn Estes belonged in a starting rotation. You traded Kyle Farnsworth right after a crap year instead of right after a good year. [...]
Friday Night Fukudome: Jim Edmonds vs. The Edmund Fitzgerald
His legend lives on from St. Louis on down,
Though he liked to have sex with a collie.
The Padres had said, “His career isn’t dead,
“He can play center field, though it’s roomy.”
Before trades they could explore, he struck out twenty-four,
Times, and his power numbers were empty.
With his dog, he got nude, ‘cuz cats are such prudes,
Though [...]
