Cominsky Field, although I think he really meant to say Alinksy Field. ;>)

These things happen when you staff your protocol office with affirmative action hires.

This man is not a true Chicagoan, look at my tag line. He grew up abroad, then he lived a little in Hawaii, then the commie scum came here with the other kneecap sucking Democratic scum we have in this city. He’s only a “Chicagoan” because it was a way for him to get to power.

Yes I remember when he said “Kaminsky Park”, with an “N” in it, when any real baseball fan knows the Sox played in Comiskey Park, with no “N” in it.

Small offhand comments people make can be very revealing. In Obama’s case, it’s clear that he’s not a baseball fan at all. He pretends to be a big fan but he knows very little about the game.

Well, Nachum.

This is indeed a sad day for Cardinal fans. But not because of any snubbing by Obama.

Former Cardinal pitcher Bob Forsch passed away suddenly today. He threw the ceremonial first pitch for World Series Game 7 last week. In his glory days he was a key figure in Whitey Herzog’s pitching arsenal. He could handle the bat too, which always helps in the National League.

I thought about posting a separate thread on this.

Decided is was best to refrain. FR really isn’t a sports talk forum and true baseball fans in middle America probably already know.

Didn’t Obama lose Missouri in ‘08 - he is an extremely thin-skinned, petty little man........

This is a man who loves and needs attention. For him not to do this speaks volumes. Funny I used to not like the cards. Hey new fan!

Oh, I know he’s not a real Chicagoan but I guess that was the only place where nobody would make a move to stop his corruption.

I was born and raised in Chicago but moved away 42 years ago. I’m sure things have gotten worse since I left, judging by what I see in the papers.
