What’s Going On??

OK, let’s get this over with. Regardless of the games I cover or stories I need to write, Saturday night is going to be reserved to watch the Cub’s game in LA. It will be the first game I watch this year since baseball and I parted ways after the last strike in 1994 (Cub’s season ticket money went to World Cup activities that year). Heck I haven’t even been to a Springfield Cardinal’s game at this stage.

But just the thought of an all-Chicago World Series is so tantalizing, so ridiculous, so unbelievable that it’s worth entertaining some thought.

What better way to spend Halloween then in Wrigleyville, right?

On the real world front, the Ozark Tigers are teaming up with the Ozark Park District to put on a youth clinic on Sunday October 12th. 3:00 to 5:00 pm, on the turf at Ozark High School. So if your kid wants to dream about playing on that surface in the future, it should be a fun time.

If your tastes lean more towards the international game, there’s a new website focused on ranking Club teams around the world, World Club Rankings. Every Friday he provides his list of the best televised games during the weekend, based upon his ranking algorithm. Bookmark it and keep it handy!
