We just had to chuckle this morning when we saw that Red Streak decided again tell the White Sox, "Who gives a shit? World Series? World Schmeries!" and bring us the breaking news that the FDA might approve a OTC DIY HIV test. Might? Yeh, that seems like something that shouuld take priority over the Sox. We realize that not everyone's into sports and last time we thought, "Well, maybe they're appealing to the people who aren't baseball fans," but come on! It's not every day that the hometown underdog for 88 years wins baseball's world title! And we'd like to think the story of their win transcends just sports. Also, how totally predictable are the three local headlines "Believe It"? If we have to listen to that Journey song one more time we're going Van Gogh on our ears. Seriously!
