BLEACHERS BREW EST. MAY 2006

Someone asked me how my blog and newspaper column came to be titled "Bleachers Brew". It's like this, it's an amalgam of sorts of two things: The bleachers area in the stadium/arena where I used to sit when I would watch baseball, football, and basketball games and Miles Davis' great jazz album Bitches Brew. That's how it got culled together. I originally planned on calling it "The View from the Big Chair" that is a nod to Tears For Fear's second album, Songs from the Big Chair. So there.

He was this close... but not quite. The Chisox were swept in 3.


Chicago White Sox manager Ozzie Guillen argues with the ump that the New York Yankees' Derek Jeter should have been thrown out at second. The Yankees won 10-0. Then a day later, the Chisox lost the third game of the series and were swept. Said Guillen: "Well, we came to New York and visited the new Yankee Stadium. It is a very nice ballpark, and the hotel we stayed at was also very nice. That's all I have to say about these last three days."
