Cubs' Barrett suspended 10 games for punch

Catcher hit Pierzynski after plate collision; Sox OF Anderson out 5 games.


Cubs catcher Michael Barrett punches the White Sox's A.J. Pierzynski after being barreled over at a collision at home plate and subsequently losing the ball, allowing Pierzynski to score.

It's called baseball, not boxing!

Memo to the Cubs management: The way the Cubs are playing, he should be happy to get to sit out 10 games. Greg Maddox, who never gets upset, bashed a water can with a bat. Why are the Cubs so bad? Because they have a manager who is clueless. Hello Cubs management! Unless you fire Dusty Baker, you are clueless too.

Walking across the U.S., baggage and all

‘Fat man’ may not have walked it all.


Fat Man Walking, as Steve Vaught referred to himself, embarked on a cross-country journey to discover why he was unemployed and depressed, and weighed 400 pounds.

Film places him in Albuquerque one day and 117 miles to the East in Santa Rosa, N.M., the next.

At 400 pounds, 117 miles in a day should be good enough for the Guinness Book of World Records, don't you think?
