Chicago

Ryan Dempster showed up to Wrigley Friday morning for his scheduled start against the Red Sox wearing a Dodgers jersey, a move he hopes will help the Cubs get the hint that he'd like to be traded to a contender immediately.

When the Red Sox visited Wrigley Field this weekend, everyone expected Theo Epstein to have mixed emotions when facing his old team, but no one thought he'd react quite the way he did when the Cubs president locked himself in Boston's clubhouse and refused to leave until he was granted out of his five-year contract with Chicago.

Michael Jordan today issued a decree to his millions of loyal followers: "Please stop posting that 'tacky' photo of LeBron, Kobe and me and all the trophies to Facebook."

A janitor at the Cubs offices reports following a cloaked and seemingly hoofed figure out of the building, where it reportedly “looked a squirrel dead” and disappeared into an alley.

@MattForte22: There's only so many times a man can be disrespected! First by #Bears and now by #Madden13. GOOD GUYS do finish last....even in video games.

An unnamed Cubs executive has explained the “difference in philosophy” that got Rudy Jaramillo fired as the well-paid hitting coach's reluctance to use the "towel drill," a long-time staple of the coaching staff.

The sports world was rocked Sunday night when pictures of Blackhawks star and noted partier Patrick Kane began circulating the web. Unlike previous photos that depicted Kane getting drunk with strippers or college girls, the latest batch featured the young Hawk enjoying a nice Merlot with a woman within a year of his own age.
