Bears Stink up the Joint vs Arizona
2009-11-09 09:18:00 Tommy Harris, the Bears overpaid defensive tackle is a bum. A jerk. He's also selfish. In the biggest game the Bears have played this year he gets tossed out roughly 45 seconds after the coin toss for slugging Arizona tackle Deuce Lutui. It is a damn shame that NFL rules don't allow the McCaskeys -- jeez, when was the last time I was in their corner? -- to fine Harris his full game salary. If I'm Jerry Angelo I've got two options for Harris when his roster bonus comes due in March: shove off or shove it. Meanwhile, Tommy Boy isn't the only culprit. The Bears lack of energy on defense was a disgrace to the most storied franchise in pro football....
Loss to Arizona sends Bears into a free fall
2009-11-08 23:50:00 Troy Aikman had it right when he likened the Bears (4-4) to a high school team. They were over-matched, outplayed, and outclassed in losing 41-21 to Arizona (5-3). The Cardinals scored on all 5 of their first-half possessions. They scored four touchdowns on drives of at least 70 yards and tacked on a last-second field goal to take a 31-7 lead at the half. Kurt Warner tied a career-high with 5 touchdown passes. Larry Fitzgerald caught 9 passes for 123 yards, most of them at the expense of Charles Tillman, who left the game just before the half with a shoulder injury. More embarrassing was the Cardinals running game, which ranked 31st in the league coming in. The Cards ran for 182 yards,...

When Lovie's back has been to the wall, the Bears have provided big time efforts and ended speculation about his job security.Because I'm expecting a big performance out of Jay Cutler against the league's 20th ranked pass defense. Cutler's year has been mediocre, marred by shoddy offensive line play and poor red zone decision...

Op-Ed Friday: Help Save Arizona- Eat Out
2009-09-11 17:24:00 It’s Friday, and we finally have a solution to stabilizing the housing market- eat out. After all, a bad economy makes for a bad housing market, and dining out will help fix that: [Thanks L!] Gov. Jan Brewer took the stage Thursday with rocker and restaurateur Alice Cooper to convince Arizonans that dining out is good for the state. Announcing a three-month public-awareness campaign called Dine 4 AZ, they said going to restaurants supports businesses and helps preserve jobs. Brewer noted that restaurants generate 10 percent of Arizona’s tax revenues. "We are working hard to lead the Grand Canyon State forward and out of this recession, and Dine 4 AZ fits perfectly into our plan," she said. "Please treat your family to a meal and we’ll get through this together." According to Stephen D. Chucri, president and CEO of the Arizona Restaurant Association: We’ve been hit hard by unemployment, immigration issue...

Chicago Cubs @ Arizona Diamondbacks
2009-04-29 20:30:00 Little less of this. After the Cubs' lineup exploded for 11 runs last night, we head to the rubber match today at Chase Field. The good news is that Milton Bradley is back and ready to make mincemeat out of opposing pitchers (possibly literally), having gone 2-4 in his return to the lineup, raising his average to a terror-inspiring .107. In more good news, Carlos Marmol and his filthy slider should be available to pitch today. In not so good news, it looks like Aramis Ramirez, who is recovering more slowly than expected, could be headed to the DL. This means that we're more likely in for another two weeks of Fontenot at 3B (okay, I guess) and Aaron Miles at 2B (NOT OKAY, LOU!). In head-scratching news, the journalistic bastion that IS Cubs.com declares, "Cubs Get Another Weapon Back For Series Finale." At first, I thought they were talking about Bradley or Ramirez, but no, they're talking about DLee. As a "weapon." Yes, I'm sure. Now I realize that there is a school of thought ...
Chicago Cubs @ Arizona Diamondbacks 8:40 CT/9:40 ET WGN
2009-04-29 02:53:00 Can't any of you people hit a #$#@*$@#$@$% curveball? Let's try this thing again. Tonight, Milton Bradley returns to the lineup, and if there was ever a time to see that fiery, competitive, rah-rah guy that fires up all his teammates, it's now. No, we're not in trouble yet, but you can see "We're in trouble" from here. One of the Carlos Zambranos will be on the hill tonight for the Cubs, though which one is anyone's guess. There's been a lot of speculation lately that Zambrano is hurt. I don't think so; remember, he goes throught his "dead arm" period every season (some times earlier than others), and that might be a bit of what we're seeing now. Let's just hope that Z can keep it in the park and that he can get some run support. And let's also hope that the D'backs hit as few balls to Fontenot as possible. Only time will tell. Lineup: Soriano Theriot Fukudome Hufflepuff Bradley Fontenot Hill Miles Zambrano See you all at over at WGN in a few.
Sandoval Returns in Arizona
2009-04-28 02:42:00 Through most of the fist 2+ weeks of the regular season, many Giants fans where wondering if young Pablo Sandoval may be a bit overwhelmed. It was the first time in the 22 year-old's career that he started a season on a big league roster and he was doing at a position he hadn't played in years. However, after the ups and downs, mostly downs, of the first couple of weeks, Sandoval has steadied out and has hit a grove.The Giants' third basemen arrived in Arizona hitting .245, but had been showing signs of heating up in the latest home stand. Sandoval left Arizona with his average up where the Giants expect it to be, .292, and he also collected his first home run of the season in the process. Sandoval went 6 for 12 in the Arizona and tripled his RBI total for the year with three in Sunday's game. Sandoval has also looked a little more comfortable in the field as his bat is coming around. He made a nice snag on a line-drive Sunday in which he turned into a 6-3 double play. He's sho...

2009-04-28 01:41:00 Welcome to Arizona and baseball in the wee small hours of the morning. We're just going to pray this one doesn't go into extra innings, because a) we'll never make it for the whole game (well, Bob might, but he's in Australia), and b) we currently lack a sufficient number of players to go 9 innings, much less more. Few of us actually enjoy baseball that starts at the time we usually start nodding off (at least the time those of us with small children start nodding off), but tonight, we're going to be prepared, because, as Les Stroud would want us all to remember, you don't go into the desert on a whim. Bust out a pencil and paper kids, because this is what you're going to need: 1)Coffee: Use this for the first few innings of the game, to give yourself a chemical inducement to make it through the first five innings.

Mixed Reactions from Arizona Politicians on Foreclosure Plan
2009-02-25 14:04:00 The proposal of $75 billion foreclosure crisis plan by Barack Obama drew mixed remarks from Arizona politicians. Arizona Attorney General Terry Goddard, a Democrat, said that Obama’s housing prescription was solid and predicted Arizona will be one of the greatest beneficiaries. He added that Arizona is desperately in need of the kind of lifeline that the president threw out today. Most of the communities in Arizona are in crisis because of large numbers of vacant houses. Goddard said on Wednesday after Obama’s speech in Mesa that most of the home prices have gone down. Rep. Harry Mitchell, D-Ariz., said that he was honored by Obama chose his congressional district to announce the plan. This plan aims to stabilize home values by helping millions of struggling but "responsible" Americans refinance their mortgages, lower their monthly payments and save their houses. But Mitchell said he will wait for more details before deciding whether to support all aspects of ...

Senate Watch: Arizona Capsule
2009-01-22 23:03:00 State OverviewThough Democrats have carried the nation's 48th state just once since 1952 (Bill Clinton in 1996), John McCain's margin in his home state was rather unimpressive in 2008. Massive population growth has changed Arizona's electorate and it's quickly becoming a battleground state. Republican Secretary of State Jan Brewer ascended to the governor's office yesterday--Arizona has no lieutenant governor-- and the GOP has majorities in both houses of the state legislature. Democrats do hold five of the eight House seats, but they haven't won a Senate race in Arizona in more than 20 years.Incumbent: John McCain (R)McCain moved up to the Senate in 1986 after two terms in the House and his long career in Washington has been filled with highs and lows. Implicated in the Keating Five scandal of the late 1980s, McCain would recast himself as a maverick and government reformer. McCain's so-called straight talk made him a media darling during his upstart 2000 presidential bid...

Arizona Charlie's - Sourdough Cafe July, Aug. 2008
2008-12-11 08:14:00 Sourdough Cafe at Arizona Charlie's. These photos are from July and August in 2008. We both liked this place because it was really cheap. Plus we get dining credits coupons in the mail. It's only like $30 every month or so, but for $30 you can get more than enough food at this cafe. But when we went back in November, the prices had been changed. So unfortunately, you don't get these prices anymore. Although they are still doing some specials for players club members.

Washington Redskins face resurgent Arizona squad
2008-09-21 13:08:00 Coming out of week two with their first 2008 season victory in hand, the Washington Redskins are set to face a suddenly resurgent Arizona Cardinals squad. The Cardinals come in as an old Rams flashback squad, led by starting quarterback Kurt Warner en route to a 2-0 start.On the hometown side, the Redskins offense finally woke up in last Sunday's comeback over the New Orleans Saints. Jason Campbell showed the promise expected of him in the West Coast offense last week, especially in connections to Santana Moss. Combined with the expected impressive defensive outing, another strong Campbell performance should be enough for a second straight Washington win.Kickoff time is 1 p.m. Sunday on WTTG/FOX/5 & WTEM/980 radio._________________________-_______________________________-_______________________________-_______________________________-_______________________________-_______________________________-_______________________________-_______________________________-______________________________.-..
