Chicago - A message from the station manager

The [Tuesday] Papers

By Steve Rhodes
The column will not appear today as once again I have business to tend to. And yet, we’re still here to serve.
* “The man in the middle is now the man on the outside looking in,” our very own George Ofman writes in Bears In A Body Bag. “This is not good if you’re Brian Urlacher. It’s much worse if you’re the Chicago Bears and perhaps even worse if you’re a Chicago Bears fan.”


* “The assistant manager kept grinning like a schoolboy sneaking a peek in the girls’ locker room,” our very own pseudononymous Jerome Haller writes in I Am A Security Guard: My Stakeout. “He’s the same manager who tackled a drunken cigarette thief a few months ago. He looked pumped for another fight.”
* “His new outfielder putting up abysmal numbers, his new pitcher missing in action, and his newly-summoned rookie help not performing up to any exceptional standard, the Guillen Meter reads 8 for “Dude, where’s my roster upgrade?” writes our very own Andrew Reilly in The White Sox Report.
* We now feature our very own Mike “Dr. Dude” Luce’s College Football Report twice a week, and let me tell you, it’s easily the best college football report in the country. If you’re not a college football fan before reading Mike, you will be after. So check it out.
Also,I will have three posts as usual on NBCChicago.com today; I’ll add the links here once they’re ready.
Oh, and I’ll be on this panel tonight to discuss the Future of Newspapers.
Otherwise, see you in this space on Wednesday.
