City of Big Complexes
Admittedly, it's been a pretty strange past few days in Chicago sports. The Bulls' bait-and-switch on Doug Collins. Ozzie Guillen's most recent rant that included shots at Kenny Williams and batting coach Greg Walker (and if I hear the phrase "thrown under the bus" regarding this incident one more time...). The White Sox near-dismantling of the Minnesota Twins. The Cubs' Carlos Zambrano going ballistic in the dugout on national television on Saturday. Cedric Benson's apparent quest to drunk himself off the Bears roster. Big Brown finishing last in the Belmont Stakes (OK, that last story isn't a Chicago one, but I still can't get over it.)
So what has all that sports weirdness earned us? The title of Weirdest Sports Town by ESPN.
OK, before you start firing off those angry emails, know that the article was written by a current Chicago area resident who has strong ties to the city. So cut him some slack...
