Time to add some extra digits to the Cubs sign.
I really honestly expected more from this team. You can never expect a title, but I did expect more. Thanks for 162 great regular season games. Reed Johnson’s diving catch, coming back from 8 down against the Rockies, the 4 game sweep of [...]

I know I rarely post about sports anymore, but I feel it necessary to throw in a shout out to the Cubs. With the Mets out of it, there’s no reason we can’t zero out a few more numbers…

Derrek Lee hurt… ARGH!
April 20, 2006 – 6:02 pm
DLee is going to be in a cast for 8 weeks with two fractures in his wrist (distal radial and distal ulna).
That BLOWS.
I really hope this doesn’t turn into a bad excuse to let Neifi play every day. Here’s the lineup I’d like to see everyday until DLee comes back.
Juan Pierre, CF
Jerry Hairston, Jr, [...]
Baseball and SQL
November 2, 2005 – 6:30 pm
Two great tastes that go great together.
One of the greatest things ever is the Lanham Baseball Database. It’s a database of all baseball statistics since 1871, suitable for random SQL queries. Not quite pitch by pitch, but season by season. Note that retrosheet has made their boxscore database for all games [...]

A Year And A Half Later or Every Time I Think I’m Out… They Pull Me Back In!
Bloody Cubs. I’ve completely written them off, because I should, because they’re awful, and they go and sweep the suddenly fading Marlins to end the All-Star break on a high note.
However, I won’t be happy with this [...]
Unicode Glyphs

Anybody know if there’s a proper way to represent a backwards K using only unicode glyphs?
Thanks.

I’m a Cubs fan. I’m also the parent of a 4 year old.
Some would see these as completely unrelated facts. One fellow Cubs fan went so far as to tell me I should raise him a Yankees fan. (Side bar: That’s not going to happen. As I tucked him into [...]
Rain Rain, Stay Today, But Go Away Tomorrow
April 12, 2005 – 2:33 pm
I have upper deck tickets for the cubs game tomorrow… but if the game today is rained out, Mark Prior should make his first start of the season tomorrow, and I’ll be there. Cool.
Certain naysayers think this means I’ll be sure to see a loss, but that’s ok, I’m a Cubs fan.
Update: Today’s game [...]
