I was tempted to name this blog “Lil’ Angry,” the nickname for former Pirates outfielder and current Cubs coach Gene Clines. Bob Prince (aka "The Gunner"), the late, great Pirates' announcer, named Clines "Lil' Angry" for his style of play, which evoked an ebbing, barely contained fury. Lil' Angry was last seen in a Cubs uniform, however, so fuck 'im. I still kinda like his nickname, though, because,well, I'm just a little angry ... pretty much all the time. Kinda like Joey Porter's pit bulls.
If and when I post entries to this blog, they’ll probably be pretty lame but cover sports, mostly, and also some politics, music and urban culture stuff. We’ll see if I stay interested, and whether anybody else is, too. If not, we can always turn loose Joey Porter’s pit bulls.
