Is it a verdict? Is it another note that says maybe there's a verdict? Is it just another ginormous tease? Who the hell knows but all of Chicago is going batshit this afternoon as the Blagojevich Brothers and attorneys have been summoned to the Dirksen Federal Building for... something. WGN even has a live stream of the Dirksen lobby. There's still no word on what all of this frenzy means but the buzz is the verdicts - such as they are - are in. We'll keep you posted here as we know more. For now, buckle it, it may be a wild afternoon.

Update: 4:02, multiple news sources reporting verdict is in.

Update: 4:15, Still no word on verdict but, uh, it's coming. Right?

Update: 4:21, Verdict reached but not on all counts (via NBC 5 live coverage)
