MONDAY PROGRAMMING NOTE:
Things are still out of sorts at the old/new Beachwood HQ. Hopefully this is the last day of madness.
Here’s what we have so far, and then we’ll see how the rest of the day develops:
* White Sox Report: West Coast Woes.
Including a disappointing Dodger Dog.
* SportsMonday: Lay Off LeBron.
Where witless Skip Bayless goes, the rest of the sports media follows.

The CIA Twitter press release needs fact checking. Nobody was “impersonating” @CIA. The handle was used by the Cleveland Institute of Art.
