Loose Ends

Today I laughed out loud when I heard the Detroit Lions has finally—finally—fired their General Manager Matt Millen.

Why?

Because it should have happened years ago, and that it took Lions ownership so long to pull this trigger should give Chicagoans comfort that their team is not, in fact, the worst-run franchise in the NFL.

But there’s always next Sunday to prove me otherwise.

Also, after last night’s loss at Minnesota, the Chicago White Sox must win three of their last five regular season games to qualify for the post-season. But as much as I’d like to see an all-city World Series, I’m not betting on it.

With due respect to my Sox fan pals, the team just isn’t that good.
