Is Pedro back yet?
I never really get the whole hullabaloo over ballpark concessions. A baseball game is 3 hours, 4 hours top. Can't people eat a nutritious meal before the game or hold out until after the game? I rarely get anything from the concession stands since I don't want to miss the game and since I ate before the game so I'm not hungry. I shouldn't throw stones since I'm rather chubby but since so many people can't make it 3 hours without stuffing their faces may help explain why we're a nation of fat asses.
We were at the park the other day and there was a girl's softball game going on, and one team scored 6 runs and then had to take the field even though they'd not made 3 outs. An interesting variation on the mercy rule I'd not seen before.
I hate it when my favorite pitcher sucks. Granted I didn't like it when someone like Tom Glavine sucked for the Mets but at least I could be angry with him.

Ferris Bueller's Day Off, The Blues Brothers, Eight Men Out, The Fugitive, A Night in the Life of Jimmy Reardon, and Running Scared all feel more Chicago-ey to me, but I like High Fidelity so I'm going to vote for it anyway.
