A bunch of former Cubs and White Sox were named in the Mitchell Report on steroids in baseball. Hey, did you guys know baseball players used performance-enhancing drugs? Turns out tons of them do! So many so that the report names "an All-Star at every position."
In other baseball disgrace news, the Chicago History Museum purchased documents from the Black Sox scandal for $100,000.
The Shedd taught its sea lions to paint. Psst. Christmas = right around the corner.
Nine elementary school students were pepper-sprayed today, thought it's still unclear exactly how it went down. Everyone is ok, though.

Mitchell Report? I'm not in it.
