White Sox Season Preview 2011 - The War on Southern Regression - Final thou
2011-02-23 07:07:00 Well, as I've taken some effort to discuss, the fate of the White Sox this season will rest a great deal upon Adam Dunn, Paul Konerko, Mark Buehrle maintaining their performance levels into their mid-30's...an age I can only imagine in my darkest nightmares. But there are a few more things to watch out for as far potential regression goes with the ChiSox.
White Sox Season Preview 2011 - The War on Southern Regression - Mark Buehr
2011-02-22 09:12:00 Would now be a good time to mention that the series after this is "Breakout players for 2011"? It really seems like that should be thrown out there before getting any more bogged down in potential negativity. To ignore the role all the relatively young pitching will have on the White Sox fortunes would be just as foolish as not examining the possibility of any decline amongst several key veterans. It's a fact of the team's roster, and while it's certainly not the doom of it, it deserves t be addressed. You can ignore the 800-pound gorilla in the room, but that only increases the likelihood it mauls you while you're not looking. So, with all requisite teeth-gritting, let's move forward with the possibilities for Mark Buehrle
White Sox Season Preview 2011 - The War on Southern Regression - A.J. Pierz
2011-02-21 10:01:00 Unlike with Adam Dunn and Paul Konerko, to address the possibility of offensive struggles for A.J. Pierzynski doesn't really count as an attempt to suck out the optimism for the White Sox 2011 season. What a relief. After submitting the flat-out worst hitting season of his career, A.J. pretty solidly removed himself from any kind of role in the offensive heavy-lifting for the team for, well...the rest of his career. We've given up on his bat, and we're ok with it. "That's not what you have A.J. on the team for!" reply the A.J advocates. This surprises me for two reasons. First, I'm no baseball manager, but anyone in my lineup is there to hit, darnett. Second, I really expected to hear a counterargument of "He was perfectly fine the year before, and just went through some horrible Gordon Beckham-like slumps in 2010 that aren't indicative of a breakdown persay. He'll be fine." The "Yeah, he sucks, but here's why it doesn't manner" party line really threw me for a loop.
White Sox Season Preview 2011 - The War on Southern Regression - Paul Koner
2011-02-21 08:14:00 This is the continuation of a series of analyzing the possibility of regression in several aging White Sox players. It begin in conception as one post with a series of blurbs, then bloated horribly into where each blurb is now it's own post. Nevertheless, here's the breakdown on Paul Konerko's regression possibilities.
White Sox Season Preview 2011 - The War on Southern Regression - Adam Dunn
2011-02-21 06:03:00 The first televised Spring Training game for the White Sox isn't till the 28th, and I'm not even sure I have MLB Network. From now until I try to explain to my father over the phone how to use his DVR, I'll be getting the previewing started by covering what the big factors for the White Sox' success in 2011 will hinge on. This is the first chapter, and in time I'll create a tab to put all these pieces on. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- So often you'll hear about a bad team "they're not bad, they're just young". This statement is of course, wrong, because the team is bad as they are losing, in the here and now. But it's also true. While they may be bad, organizations with very young rosters are not hopeless, as there are brighter days waiting once the inconsistencies of youth subside. Old teams that are bad, well, they're just screwed. While ever player has off-years, if a player i...

Illinois Destroys Southern Illinois in Basketball Grudge Match
2010-11-14 06:07:00 After a football game that nearly defied all description, Illinois head coach Bruce Weber knew it was important for the Illini basketball team to get out fast. "I did bring up the football game in the shootaround -- you just never know and you gotta be ready to play," Weber said. "When you are winning you've got to keep pouring it on. One of the things we weren't that good at last year was building and extending leads and putting teams away. We had a saying this summer that you don't ever take any prisoners, you don't let up. And the way we're playing right now we are doing just that." It was that relentless style that led the...

Southern Illinois fishing
2010-03-07 04:00:00 A nice bass makes it to Ron DaRosa's boat at Little Grassy. Got to talk with Todd Gessner and Jason Johns of Todd Gessner Outdoors guide service today. They tell me that Rend Lake is moments away from some great crappie fishing. Lake of Egypt is already doing well. It's ahead of a lot of the other local southern Illinois lakes as Egypt is a power plant lake and has a hot water discharge that warms the water pretty good. Ron DaRosa from Carbondale sent me another fishing report from southern Illinois. Looks like the bass fishing down south is picking up. In Ron's email, this is what he said about Little Grassy......

Ride the rails with Norfolk Southern (NSC)
2009-12-21 14:00:00 "If, as I anticipate, we do see increasing consumer spending in the first quarter, one industry that stands to benefit immediately is the railways," says Tom Slee.The contributing analyst with Internet Wealth Builder explains, "I like the outlook for Norfolk Southern (NYSE: NSC), a major freight railroad operating on the U.S. eastern seaboard with lines into Ontario. It should do well next year.""With roots back to 1827, the modern Norfolk Southern was formed in 1982 through a merger of Norfolk and Western Railway and the Southern Railway Company. "Based in Norfolk, Virginia, the company operates 21,500 route miles in 22 eastern states as well as the District of Columbia and Ontario."The bulk of Norfolk's revenues still come from the transportation of coal, coke, and iron ore, although intermodal traffic is now a growing factor. In 2008, revenues totaled $10.6 billion (all dollar amounts are in U.S. currency) and generated a profit of $1.7 bill...
